    These are all the christmas DVD's I have:

    Christmas with the Kranks
    Surviving Christmas
    Scrooged
    Santa Clause 1, 2 & 3
    Santa Clause the Movie
  • 'The Holiday' with Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet.
    A guilty pleasure for all of us girlies!:cheesy:
  • Our favourite Xmas films are

    Miracle on 42nd Street - there ave been a couple of versions made but i love the original black and white one, if you have a child who isn't sure whether Santa exists this will make them believe.

    One Magic Christmas - we watch this every year without fail and even named our daughter after the girl in it.

    Santa Claus the movie

    Not really a film but a great comedy, the Vicar of Dib;ey Xmas special - hilarious
    We love what we are doing and we love why we're doing it!!
  • I have picked up loads of christmas films on video from the local charity shops recently for 50p each :D .
    and Elf is on tv this sunday afternoon so will be watching that!

  • The Snowman is fantastic for children, Elf is great for all the family (children love it and there are hidden adult jokes in there too), Home Alone for all the family, The Holiday for adults and Love Actually for adults.

    My favourite Christmas films are

    Miracle on 34th Street
    Its a wonderful life
    Scrooged
    Scrooge

    and my all time favourite which no one has mentioned is
    One magic Christmas.

    Im sure its a disney film, and its for adults and young ones too. It is sad, but, gets the right message across and does have a happy ending.

    I got it last year for about £5 I think.

  • A White Christmas
    Holiday Inn
    On Moonlight Bay
    Sleepless in Seattle
    Beauty and the beast
    Flint street Nativity
