Sony is bringing back its Christmas movie channel
What’s Christmas time without curling up on the sofa watching a classic film?
If you just can’t wait to watch your favourites, Sony is bringing back its pop-up Christmas channel. Viewers will be able to tune in from Tuesday 10th September, so Christmas really has come early! Nothing wrong with some early festive cheer, right?
The channel was previously known as True Christmas, but has rebranded for the 2019 festive season under Sony Movies Christmas. It’ll be airing all the classics, premiering new releases and ‘indulgent treats’. Sounds great to us.
So whether you’ll watch whilst wrapping presents, or simply curled up with a festive drink, there’ll be lots in store for all you Christmas fans out there.
You’ll be able to see channel premieres such as Holiday Road Trip, Christmas With the Kranks, Silver Bells and Defending Santa.
