Don't want to spoil things but here's a list if you want. You don't have to look though.

Change mine to Scrooge/A Christmas Carol then. Used to watch all versions when younger, can't beat Ebenezer Scrooge.

Maybe something like the wizard of oz? 1939. Or possibly a Disney animation?

I'd imagine that the TV listings are already out for the Cmas period. If not, then I'll guess Snow White for the Disney animation. That was released in 1937!! Before WW2 :eek:

Wizard of Oz will surely be on.

Casablanca(1942) seems to be on every year.
