It’s a weekend quite near to Christmas, so tradition dictates you must spend it drinking cheap sherry buried under a vast pile of Quality Street. Ho. Ho. Ho.

It’s beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas Channel 5 13.30
A New York woman who’s successful at doing something womanly (cakes/romance books/possibly marketing, if progressive) has to go back to Baubletown because her Aunt died and left her a bauble. When she arrives, she meets a man in a gilet who annoys her, then he doesn’t annoy her. Then she learns the true meaning of Christmas and stays in Baubletown for evermore making baubles for orphans.
