For decades, films based upon the magical and enchanting tradition of Christmas have melted the hearts and inspired a countless number of people from the likes of hilarious disaster-comedies, live-action family heart-warmers and visually stunning animations.

Enter the British animation studio Aardman (best known for Wallace and Gromit)... read more
