Christmas on Derana

‘Surviving Christmas’ on December 24 at 10.30 p.m. Drew Latham (Ben Affleck) is a wealthy advertising executive, driven by money, which results in him living a shallow, pointless life. After being dumped by his girlfriend, he faces the prospect of another Christmas alone, so he decides to visit his childhood home to rekindle his old holiday memories. Once there, he discovers that the house is now owned by another family, the Valcos.

The movie was directed by Mike Mitchell and included stars such as James Gandolfini, Christina Applegate, Catherine O’Hara, Josh Zuckerman etc. ‘12 Dogs of Christmas’ – on December 25 at 10.00am.

Upon being sent to live with her aunt in the small town of Doverville, 12-year-old Emma O’Conner finds herself in the middle of a ‘dog-fight’ with the Mayor and the town dogcatcher. In order to strike down their ‘no-dogs’ law, Emma must bring together a group of schoolmates, grown-ups and adorable dogs of all shapes and sizes in a spectacular holiday pageant.

Cast – Mindy Sterling, Eric Lutes, Richard Riehle. ‘The Santa Clause 3: the Escape Claus’ - on December 25th at 3.30pm.

Holiday magic mixes with comical chaos at the North Pole in “Santa Claus 3: The Escape Clause”. Tim Allen reprises his role of Scott Calvin – AKA Santa – as he juggles a full house of family and the mischievous, Jack Frost (Martin Short), who is trying to take over the “big guy’s holiday.

As the risk of giving away the secret location of the North Pole, Scott invites his-in-laws (Ann- Margaret & Alan Arkin) to share in the holiday festivities, and upcoming birth of baby Claus with expectant wife Carol, - AKA Mrs. Claus (Elizabeth Mitchell).

Along for the adventure are Scott’s extended family, son Charlie (Eric Lloyd), ex-wife Laura Miller (Wendy Crewson), her husband, Neil Miller (Judge Reinhold) and their daughter, Lucy (Liliana Mumy) who, together with head elf Curtis (Spencer Breslin), foil Jack Frost’s crafty scheme to control the North Pole.
