I was quite surprised that Jim O'Hanlon managed to pretty much reassemble the entire cast from the first of these harmless Christmas comedies and this time, take them all off to Austria for a seasonal snow-fest. Of course, things go wrong from the start with the posh "Hughes" family ending up in a rather basic log cabin whilst "Hayley" (Cora Kirk) and the Macclesfield massive end up in five star luxury. This sets the scene for a few escapades as the socially ill-matched families have to make the best of their differences whilst "James" (Asa Butterfield) plucks up some courage. The original film had something natural to it, this is way more contrived. Saving the bitchiness of "Diane" (Jane Krakowski) who has latched onto "Lord Humphrey" (Alex Jennings) and extols all the virtues of a kale-smoothie swilling, name dropping health nut, the rest of the story rather stutters along based on a few trivial misunderstandings and a rather menacing chocaholic black ram! There isn't really much chemistry between Butterfield and Kirk either, and by half way through this was heading down the slopes as quickly as Franz Klammer. It's easy to watch festive fodder, but I doubt you will recall watching it half an hour after Krakowski closes the show with "Wish it Could be Christmas..."
