So what's everyone's favourite Christmas film then?

According to my Mum, it will take something pretty special to remove Die Hard from the top of her list  ???

Well, you're a scientist and you're from Airdrie---that's enough excitement for anyone.

The Moon-Man that Time Forgot one Christmas in December has got to rank as one of my favourite Christmas films.

You're such a fibber, Peeps.
I'll give an honourable mention to the first couple of "Home Alone" movies. At the time, they were pretty original and have since spawned a million imitations. Also, the first time I saw "The Snowman", I thought it was stunning. Then there's "Miracle on 42nd Street" which is good but...nah..."It's A Wonderful Life"---that's THE one.

You surprise me, Roger. I didn't know you were an old fogey!

Okay - I got the title wrong. I forgot the bit about the chainsaw massacre. It was a long time ago.

"National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation".  I'm a sucker for all Christmas films, though - Home Alones, Santa Clause, White Christmas, Miracle, etc.

Don't think I've seen "It's a Wonderful Life" either, Zesty.  Maybe when I was young, but not that I can remember.  There's not that much excitement in my life - maybe I should rent it.

I'll freely admit I haven't seen "It's a Wonderful Life".

No I won't! I'll charge 25p each! PayPal will do.

I loved Louis Armstrong's song though.
