Mine would be:

- Die Hard - it is a Christmas film, so narrowly beats A Muppet Christmas Carol.
- The Pogues - Fairytale of New York
- Terry's Chocolate Orange
- Teatime turkey sandwich with all the leftover trimmings. Just ahead of pigs in blankets.
- Warm sausage rolls and mince pies for breakfast while all sitting around opening presents together.
