Wallace & Gromit

On Christmas Day, it was compulsory to sit through the Queen's Speech at 3pm, but as a child I found this somewhat boring.

We used to watch and record many of the favourite films which were appearing on the TV set for the year. The Snowman has been on the TV every Christmas throughout my childhood, so we would always watch this, along with Wallace and Gromit. 

As a teenager I was a mad addict to the soaps and there would always be an exciting, dramatic storyline at Christmas which I could not pull myself away from.

As students, it became a tradition to watch Love Actually every year in the lead up to Christmas.

Nowadays, we tend to watch whatever DVDs we have received as gifts from family.
