A Very British Christmas (2019 TV Movie)
7/10
A North Yorkshire Native
5 November 2023
As someone that lives in North Yorkshire I'll address a few things, but let's not forget, this film is fiction and doesn't claim to be factual.

Yes The main airport in Yorkshire is Leeds Bradford, a quick taxi or bus to Leeds would put the main character into Leeds, one of the biggest cities in the UK but does it matter? No.

Leeds Bradford airport isnt served by a steam train, but, in the North Yorkshire Moors and Dales (where this is set) there is a steam train to go around the towns and villages, so not as wrong as many point out.

Knarebrough (the town used as the main base) is beautiful, obviously it has areas of new build houses and trading estates, but in the town centre and direct outskirts, it's old and stunning, it's also not in the Dales or the Moors, but what fiction films are true to life?

It's a cheesy Christmas film that shows off Yorkshire's beauty, even if things are moved around a little.

Don't set your expectations high, take it for what it is and you won't be a Christmas Grinch like some reviewers.
