In the immortal words of Slade…

It’s Chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiistmaaaaaaaaaaaaasssss.

There’s nothing better than throwing on your pyjamas, making a sandwich from the leftover Christmas dinner, and watching a movie while staying nice and warm inside.

And with nearly every channel showing multiple films each day, you’re spoiled for choice every year.

RTÉ have chosen a wide selection of classics and new arrivals to the Christmas movie canon.

Die Hard makes a feature (as it should), along with classic series’ such as Back to the Future and Indiana Jones.

Notably absent is Home Alone, however. But no fear; Home Alone 2: Lost in New York does make an appearance.
