A Very British Christmas

This was a lovely, family friendly, feel good Christmas film. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Great cast, lovely locations, laughs and romance, this film has a bit of everything! I'd highly recommend giving it a watch.

This film was so enjoyable, with beautiful settings. It wasn't like most of the Christmas movies that play in abundance, because of the rich characters and the actors convincing performances. I recommend this movie for a relaxing and cozy time.

As someone that lives in North Yorkshire I'll address a few things, but let's not forget, this film is fiction and doesn't claim to be factual.

Yes The main airport in Yorkshire is Leeds Bradford, a quick taxi or bus to Leeds would put the main character into Leeds, one of the biggest cities in the UK but does it matter? No.

Leeds Bradford airport isnt served by a steam train, but, in the North Yorkshire Moors and Dales (where this is set) there is a steam train to go around the towns and villages, so not as wrong as many point out.

Knarebrough (the town used as the main base) is beautiful, obviously it has areas of new build houses and trading estates, but in the town centre and direct outskirts, it's old and stunning, it's also not in the Dales or the Moors, but what fiction films are true to life?

It's a cheesy Christmas film that shows off Yorkshire's beauty, even if things are moved around a little.

Don't set your expectations high, take it for what it is and you won't be a Christmas Grinch like some reviewers.

I loved this movie for personal reasons as it reminded me of my daughter who moved with her family to live in Canada.

Knaresborough was one of my memorable highlights when I visited Yorkshire many years ago.

I enjoyed the scenery, spirit of Christmas & romantic aspects. I didn't allow the accents to spoil it. Seeing a movie without Sci-fi, violence & swearing is a refreshing change.

My only disappointment is that we never heard singing at the end.

Lily James would have been perfect in the lead role as she has musical & acting talent & more music would have been a welcome addition.

Yes, it was twee, but glad we just happened to switch on the Tele and stumbled upon this movie.

It brought a tear or two to my eyes as I saw it through the eyes of a child with happy memories of the festive season shared with family as well as my visit to Knaresborough.

Good little film, nice to see the Yorkshire beauty rather than all the glitz and glamour of New York film's!!! Only annoying thing was the blasted kid saying " sweetheart" all the time......
