Everyone has a favourite Christmas film on repeat every December. Naming one from nothing but its plot, with no title and no poster, takes a little more thought.

This quiz gives you fifteen festive plots in a line or two each, spanning eight decades of holiday films, and asks you to pick the right title from four options. It mixes the films everyone has on their watchlist every year with a couple that might take a moment longer to place. Work through them all and find out whether you finish as Bah Humbug, a casual Christmas Shopper, a sharp Head Elf, or a true Santa Claus.

FAQs:

What kind of films are included?
A mix of classic and modern Christmas movies, spanning comedy, animation, and a couple of darker takes on the holiday season.

Which clue trips people up the most?
A few of the older classics are more recognisable by their setting than by their exact title, so it’s worth reading each clue carefully before answering.

Can I play it again? Yes, “Try again” reshuffles both the questions and the answer order.

Is the quiz free to play?
Yes, no sign up or download required.
