Corona should make a normal Christmas difficult for most people. Sky would like to remedy this with its own transmitter.
The corona pandemic demanded a lot from most people in the exceptional year 2020. For many, it would come in handy if at least a little cozy Christmas mood arises after the difficult months, although no big celebrations are possible due to the contact restrictions that also apply in December. Sky could help bring back at least a little cozy normalcy in the run-up to Christmas.
From December 1, there will be more than 20 Christmas hits on demand via Sky Q and the Sky Ticket streaming service. In addition to classics and blockbusters, there are also two premieres for all fans of Christmas. And between December 17th and 26th there is even the pop-up channel Sky Cinema Christmas, on which all films can be seen around the clock.

The fictional film by director Paul Feig (58) came to the cinemas last Christmas and has charming characters, jokes, kitsch, singing and almost everything you would expect from a Christmas film.
Clarke is allowed to sing her way through half the film, which made her "incredibly nervous in advance," as the British actress said in an interview with the news agency spot on news before the cinema release. "I love to sing, so it was wonderful to have this opportunity. In fact, I've always wanted acting and singing to be balanced in my roles. Most of all, it's something I take very seriously because it's pure me Gives pleasure. For all these reasons, I didn't want to screw it up. "
The BBC remake of Charles Dickens' (1812-1870) Christmas classic "A Christmas Carol" with Guy Pearce (53, "Memento") and Gollum actor Andy Serkis (56, "The Lord of the Rings" series) will be on December 9th at Sky Cinema premieres also seen for the first time on German television.
