THERE’S nothing more festive than a Christmas rom-com.
Cosying up on the sofa with a box of chocolates and a will-they-wont they plot complete with snowy scenes, colourful scarves, and charming couples is the perfect way to spend a December evening, and while you can never watch Love Actually too many times, it’s great to have a fresh new film for the festive season.
Last Christmas, we all fell in love with Hayley and James in Your Christmas or Mine?, with Sex Education’s Asa Butterfield and newcomer Cora Kirk in leading roles.
This year, following on from the culture-clash storyline which saw working-class Hayley spend Christmas with James’s aristocratic family, while James stayed at Hayley’s Macclesfield home when a mutual surprise visit went topsy turvy, mayhem abounds when the two extended families decide to spend Christmas in the Alps.
Your Christmas or Mine 2 is a comedy of errors full of mishaps and miscommunication. First, a taxi mix-up sees the wealthy Hughes family end up staying in the dodgy hotel Hayley’s dad managed to book on the cheap, while Hayley and the Taylors live it up in the Hughes’ five-star ski resort.
Then Hayley finds an engagement ring in the Hughes’ misdelivered luggage, and jumps to conclusions...
The bringing together of the two families means a stellar ensemble cast for this sequel, including Angela Griffin as Hayley’s mum Kath, Daniel Mays as her dad Geoff, David Bradley as James’ granddad, Alex Jennings as his dad Humphrey, and Jane Krakowski as Humphrey’s girlfriend.
“It was wild. And it was hysterical at times,” says Asa, 26, who plays Otis Milburn in popular Netflix series Sex Education, of having the Hugheses and Taylors together in the sequel.
