Christmas in Notting Hill (2023 TV Movie)
8/10
Enjoyable
22 December 2023
This is one of the more enjoyable Hallmark movies released so far this year. The leads were charming. The situations are low-key droll. The dry humor seems very British to me.

For instance, the heroine Georgia (Sarah Ramos) obliviously ignores all the signs that Graham (William Moseley) is famous, including the literal signs with his picture on them.

Later, Graham tells Georgia that the bag from the jewelry store was for his brother, who was about to propose to his girlfriend. Don't tell anyone, though, because it's a secret. Georgia responds, oh, who am I going to tell? She says she doesn't know the brother or his girlfriend (aka her sister).

And the Secret Santa hijinks, which I won't describe here.

Other positives: I liked the way they describe a panto. Spot on. I think there's usually a bit more of a plot to it.

I liked the supporting cast, especially the brother (Peter Rothwell) and the mother (Kate O'Toole). The fathers (Ford and Mullen) are funny together.
