Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal.
When you get to a certain age, Christmas becomes less about the presents and more about the three Fs; food, films and family. Is there any greater joy than sitting down with your nearest and deares to watch a film and fight over a box of chocolates? We think not. So with that in mind here’s every film on TV over Christmas and New Year.
