So far I have three from Netflix: norwegian Home for Christmas (I want to live in that apartment for Christmas), german Over Christmas and american Dash & Lily.

Do you know any other? And what are your favorite christmas special episodes?

Mine are The Christmas Lunch Incident from Vicar of Dibley and all Frasier Christmas episodes.

I watch the retelling of A Christmas Carol every year with Ross Kemp as a loan-shark Scrooge! It is better than it sounds i promise! Also the xmas episode of The Good Life where Margo orders Christmas to arrive in a van and it hilariously doesnt!

There's a doc Martin Christmas special this year. I'm looking forward to seeing a Boy named Christmas this year, and if I can find it Santa and Pete.

I don't know why but any episodes of Only Fools and horses reminds me of Christmas time, Vicar of Dibley, Dinner ladies, basically all the old tv shows bring back some Xmas nostalgia.

I like to rewatch Victoria Wood, The two Ronnie's at Christmas and Downton Abbey Christmas specials.

Oh and Heartbeat Christmas special.

I've heard Call the midwife is good at Christmas but not watched it, maybe I'll put it on this year's list.

Always Call the Midwife at Christmas and the Vicar of Dibley episode with all the Christmas dinners is still a classic.

I love the Christmas episodes of The Goes Wrong Show - Spirit of Christmas and Nativity Goes Wrong. The longer Peter Pan Goes Wrong and A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong are also favourites.

Call the midwife is one I’ll always watch some have not been so good in the last few years but there’s not much tv as it I like so any Christmas documentaries I like as well.
