Father Christmas Is Back (2021)

This is more adult than a lot of other Christmas movies with a rating of PG-13, so I would caution watching with young children.

Caroline Christmas-Hope (Nathalie Cox) and her husband Peter Hope (Kris Marshall) are hosting Caroline's family for Christmas at their manor in the English countryside with their children Daisey (Amelie Prescott) and Henry (Oliver Smith). Caroline has invited her mother Elizabeth Christmas (Caroline Quentin) and her uncle John Christmas (John Cleese). Also arriving is her fashionista sister Joanna Christmas (Elizabeth Hurley) and her most recent boyfriend Felix (Ray Fearon), her sister Paulina Christmas (Naomi Frederick) who is working on her dissertation about the musical genius of The Beatles, and the youngest sister Vicky Christmas (Talulah Riley) who has been couch-surfing across America for some months. We find out pretty quickly that the Christmas sisters have a dysfunctional relationship with each other and Caroline has been trying to have the perfect Christmas every year since the year their father left on Christmas when they were kids.

Surprise, surprise, when Vicky was couch-surfing, she ran into their father in Florida and invited him back for Christmas, so James Christmas (Kelsey Grammer) shows up with his girlfriend Jackie (April Bowlby). Everybody has strong reactions to this, but nobody is more directly rude to James than his older brother John. The Christmas sisters mostly fight with each other. Vicky and Joanna probably fight the most, but everyone regularly jabs at Caroline for being too uptight and having a bad sex life with her husband. Peter and Felix are so chill about the chaos that they have to be wildly in love to deal with it, because I sure wouldn't. Also Jackie is an American nightmare and seems like she has no idea when she's being ridiculous, like a true American. They muddle through various Christmas events with each other, warts and all, until the shit really hits the fan Christmas morning.

This movie is clearly meant for adults, and it's very fun. Not super raunchy, just enough to keep things interesting. There's not a ton of background music, but there are some "live" performances throughout. It's a very sweet train wreck to watch, and I would watch it again, but I don't know that I would choose it again. Overall, 3.5 stars.

Whenever I imagine a female Dante (Dana, or Dani, whichever you like), I cannot help but picture Caroline Quentin, specifically as Dorothy in “Men Behaving Badly”. I don’t know why, but she is pretty much how I picture girl!Dante, at least in terms of appearance.

(So, there are hardly any good pictures of her in this sitcom six series long, but hey, hopefully you see what I’m seeing. Stick some grungy clothes, the odd chunky knit on this lady, that’s girl!Dante)

A Whose Line with Josie and Caroline is a good Whose Line.

I decided to binge my way through Jonathan Creek now that it's available on iPlayer, and I don't know if I'm the only one who really can't stand Maddy's character for a good portion of her time on the show.

I just feel like she started out so interesting but then they took her development and her relationship with Jonathan in such a weird way it really turned me off to her.

I'm not through all the available series yet but even Carla's character is starting to go down that path and it's really disappointing to me.

❝ The boxes can wait. It's not like I'm in a big hurry to get them out of my hair. ❞ She spoke trying to keep her composure. ❝ Plus, half of this is me just being a neurotic clean freak. ❞

"I was going to ask if you needed help with those boxes," Quentin said as he continued to walk up to Caroline. He knew that she had vampire strength and didn't actually need help moving boxes but that wasn't going to stop him from offering. "You're not in a hurry to get these boxes somewhere?"
