The Best Christmas Film of All Time

Elf: Hmmm, am I a red herring or not?

The votes are in, the results have been checked and verified by an independent adjudicator and the winners have been announced.

I'm talking about the Best Christmas Movies of All Time. A big thank you to all of you who commented on this blog, via the radio website, to my actual face and on my Facebook and Myspace pages to tell me what your favourite Christmas film was. I found the overwhelmingly huge response (not least on The Misssives) and some of the results quite surprising, I must say. Thank you all very much.

Am I going to publish the list? Maybe...but I am also going to do better than that. Click here to hear the podcast of the show. The movie part starts about 17 minutes in, but the podcast as a whole includes sessions from bands Frightened Rabbit and Alabama 3, should you want to listen to it in its entirety.

Many thanks to all of you who read the Misssy M Misssives in 2008. Your support makes it all worthwhile. I'll be back in action in 2009. Have a splendidly Merry Christmas and a deliriously Happy New Year.



Here's the list for those who don't have time to listen:

1. It's a Wonderful Life



2. Elf



3.Love Actually



4. Muppets' Christmas Carol



5.Trading Places



6. Die Hard



7. The Nightmare Before Christmas



8. White Christmas



9. Planes Trains and Automobiles



10. Home Alone

Someone mentioned Adventures in Babysittng a while back - now there's a film I'd like to see again, and which brings back some very happy memories....

And I hope you had a good one, and survived the festives.
