From midday on Monday 23 November until Tuesday 8 December, Radio 2 listeners are being invited to vote for their favourite Christmas film from a long list of 25 classics, created by the network’s resident movie critic, James King.

The results will be heard on from 9-11pm on Christmas Eve as James counts down the Top 12 Christmas films of all time, as voted for by the listeners. The show will feature plenty of seasonal songs from the silver screen and the thoughts of those who made these Yuletide greats. Listeners can choose their favourite festive feel-good move from classics including It’s A Wonderful Life, Love Actually, Home Alone, The Grinch and Elf.

James King says: “Okay Radio 2 listeners, after the year we’ve had I think it’s time to lose ourselves in the Christmas spirit and celebrate our favourite festive films. So whilst you’re wrapping pressies or stuffing the turkey, join me on Christmas Eve from 9pm for a countdown of your best-loved holiday movies. And don’t forget to vote!”
