And the truth is, Parliament was expected to sit only this week, then adjourn for Christmas. The next sitting of Parliament was scheduled, iirc, for a week before the Prorouge is set to expire.
The ultimate effect on Parliament is that MPs wont be in the House for a grand total of two weeks longer than was already planned.

I believe the prorouge ends the same day it parliament was set to come back, and I heard on the news yesterday that the net effect was missing 4 extra days (basically, Monday-Thursday next week). That's it.
