TV Times & Entertainment and ETV, the premier entertainment TV channel bring this exciting weekly competition to the close this week and this is your last chance to win a brand new VCD player.

All you have to do is read TV Times for the question and watch ETV for the answer on the popular belt ‘family movies’. Answer the simple question , after watching ‘Santa Jr.’, on ETV, on the coupon given below. The question will be based on the particular feature ‘Santa Jr.’ on ETV this week.

The son of Santa Claus is reluctantly taking over the family business, but things go awry when he is mistaken for the notorious ‘Christmas Bandit’ and arrested. With the fate of Christmas hanging in the balance, Chris Kringle Jr. will have to trust in the spirit of giving and learn to love the job he was born to do.

Chris Kringle, Jr. (Nick Stabile, Popular) is going into the family business, but the reluctant heir to the gift-giving throne isn’t exactly living up to his potential. With the help of an unlikely cast of characters, Santa, Jr. will have to learn to trust the Christmas spirit and believe in the magic of giving. The future of Christmas depends on it.

It’s the night before Christmas Eve in balmy San Diego and Chris Kringle, Jr., outfitted in an oversized Santa suit, is lurking around a tiny apartment in the dark, trying to deliver toys when he is mistaken for the notorious ‘Christmas Bandit. He is arrested by police detective Norm Potter (George Wallace, Batman Forever) and his young partner Darryl Bedford (Golden Globe nominee Judd Nelson, The Breakfast Club) and taken into custody. Susan Bailey (Emmy nominee Lauren Holly, King of Texas /Turbulence/ Picket Fences) is assigned as Chris’s public defender. Soured on all things Christmas by her philandering ex, Susan is hard-pressed to believe Chris’s story that he is, in fact, the son of Santa Claus. While Chris is less than thrilled with his job, he knows there are people counting on him. He begs Susan to figure out a way to keep him out of jail and she agrees to help. With Christmas Eve quickly approaching, Chris is in a race against the clock to keep Christmas schedule.

Things, however, are looking pretty bleak. A film for the whole family, Santa Jr. is the funny and touching story of a young man struggling to find his own identity and live up to the Claus family name, while the fate of Christmas hangs in the balance.
