Ian Fitzgibbon’s ‘Christmas Carole’ starring Suranne Jones is released on the 24th December at 8pm on Sky Max, with further broadcasts on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

Grant Olding composed the original score for the film and Nick Taylor mixed the score at Air-Edel Studios.

“A yuletide story of our times, with apologies to Charles Dickens.”

Carole Mackay is an unashamedly outspoken and wealthy entrepreneur. Her online business selling all things festive has earned her a fortune, as well as the nickname ‘Christmas Carole’.

But her success hasn’t made her a better human being. In fact, it’s made her worse. The truth is that Carole is a monumentally mean person. Positively Scrooge-like. And, just like Ebeneezer, she doesn’t love Christmas at all. But this Christmas Eve, Carole’s past, present and future are about to collide. Will some rather familiar Christmas spirits help her discover the true spirit of Christmas?”
