A British-all-star cast relish this story of an awkward, Christmas-hating man strong-armed into helping a retirement home’s chaotic production of A Christmas Carol.

John Bradley is Aubrey Flint, a reclusive model soldier painter with a lifelong hatred of Christmas, who is sentenced to community service at Willow Lodge, a retirement home on the brink of closure.

Reluctantly roped into assisting with a chaotic production of A Christmas Carol, Aubrey clashes with its colourful cast of residents, including a chain-smoking ex-diva and a quietly wise model-shop owner.

Also starring Celia Imrie, Richard E. Grant, Adjoa Andoh, Sophia Di Martino, and Kiell Smith-Bynoe.
