Special Preview: That Christmas (PG)

Family Film Week

A group of kids look over a roof on Christmas Eve.

Join us for a special preview of this wonderful new Netflix animation, adapted from the Richard Curtis’ charming trilogy of children’s books.

That Christmas follows a series of entwined tales about family and friends, love and loneliness, Santa Claus making a big mistake — and it also features an enormous number of turkeys! Based on books by beloved award-wining writer-director Richard Curtis (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, Love Actually, Yesterday) That Christmas is an utterly delightful treat for all the family.

Not released on Netflix until 4th December, this super sneaky preview has a new song by Ed Sheeran and a voice cast that reads like a who’s who of British talent – including Brian Cox, Bill Nighy, Jodie Whitaker and Guz Khan. The perfect chance to get yourself into a festive mood nice and early!
