Mine is absolutely the Albert Finney musical version. I love the big musical numbers but Tiny Tim singing 'On a beautiful Winter's morning' makes me shiver every time.

I really like the modern one with Ross Kemp

Taytocrisps · 24/12/2023 11:51

The George C. Scott version (1984).

Closely followed by The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Scrooged with Bill Murray, never fails to make me laugh, I love the fairy Ghost of Christmas Present.

Possimpible · 24/12/2023 11:53

Scrooged, then the Muppets! A woman of culture

WandaWonder · 24/12/2023 11:53

Blackadder and Alistair Sim

MiddleAgeAllTheRage · 24/12/2023 11:55

Definitely Scrooged. Bill Murray is hilarious!

peanutbutter00 · 24/12/2023 11:56

Alistair Sim the black and white version, and Muppets Christmas Carol

Darkandstormynite · 24/12/2023 11:57

Close tie, Albert Finney and the Muppets 😁

The Muppet Christmas Carol Blush DD likes it on while we decorate the Christmas tree so she can sing along to the songs, she's 15 so I've been expecting it to be the last year she wants to do it for about 3 years but no, still going strong Grin

A Christmas Carol: the Musical with Kelsey Grammer

Nagado · 24/12/2023 12:19

Definitely the muppets for me. I also quite like the Jim Carey one. We’re currently watching the Alastair Sim version, which is DH’s favourite.

BigMamaFratelli · 24/12/2023 12:21

Muppets Christmas carol, Scrooged and then the Alastair Sim one

A Christmas Carol with Patrick Stewart

IfColoursHatedMe · 24/12/2023 12:42

Honestly couldn't pick between muppets, Albert finney and scrooged, although I do watch the Ross kemp one on YouTube every year too.

REP22 · 24/12/2023 12:54

Muppet Christmas Carol. Yes it's the Muppets, which I love, but underneath the Muppet/Disney humour and trappings, it's a cracking performance as Scrooge by Michael Caine.

Is this streaming anywhere? I can remember watching it when it first came out but I can't remember where!

Elmo230885 · 24/12/2023 13:17

Muppets!!

PumpkinPie2016 · 24/12/2023 13:46

Albert Finney musical version is my absolute favourite.
I watch it every Christmas - sometimes more than once!

The Muppets! Best version ever!

gaggiagirl · 24/12/2023 13:49

I really enjoyed the Jim Carey one. He's so talented. My second choice would be Scrooged.

ScottBakula · 24/12/2023 13:53

It depends on my mood , but Patrick Stewarts version is one of the best, I also really like bill Murrays version .

I am on my own today and tomorrow so I may binge watch all of them !

Mistymornin · 24/12/2023 13:56

Alistair Sim, love old b&w films and Ross Kemp version

MandyMotherOfBrian · 24/12/2023 14:00

Definitely Albert Finney. Although both the Patrick Stewart one and Guy Pearce one were good too.

Isn't the singing just wonderful? I love singing along to "Than you very much..." 🙂
