    I know you say you've already got it but yet another vote for Muppets Christmas Carol.

    Then for a change of pace, Indiana Jones - the first three back to back, or just the first & third one (with Sean Connery as Dad). My sons will watch these without a cheep of bickering, & your daughter may put up with Harrison Ford?

    If the weather's gruesome (too bad even for a quick snowball fight to revitalise the circulation) move onto 'Paul' - an SF comedy that perhaps you shouldn't share with folks under 8, or ET (lights out for that one so I can drizzle in peace - wonderful film though & good family viewing.)

    Wishing you a Merry Christmas & harmonious agreement over the TV remote!

    thanks for all your suggestions, I have a list going BUT has anyone seen 2nd day of christmas, just want to know if it's happy/sad etc?

    That film is usually shown on the sky Christmas films channel. It's not one I would watch again.

    Dvds we watch every year are Elf, National lampoons Christmas vacation and Christmas with the kranks. I bought A Christmas story because of the reviews ages ago, but haven't watched.

    It's about time the greatest store in the world was repeated, we have it taped off the tv on video, my grown up Daughters love it.

    I always watch Muppet Christmas Carol and Nightmare Before Christmas. I also enjoy Gremlins and Hansel and Gretel, a Korean film based around Christmas time. Neither are ones for the kiddies though- NBX might not be either if you've got particularly sensitive children.
