A new Christmas movie has hit the screens and viewers can't stop raving about it. Starring the talented Chris McCausland, this film has been praised as the perfect festive viewing. And it's no wonder, as Chris has been on a roll lately, having just won this year's season of Strictly Come Dancing alongside his dance partner Dianne Buswell.
Now, fans can see Chris in a different light as he takes on the role of co-writer for the new Christmas movie, Bad Tidings. Along with co-writers Laurence Rickard and Martha Howe-Douglas, Chris has created a hilarious and heart-warming story that is sure to bring some holiday cheer.
In the film, Lee Mack plays the role of Neil, a home security expert who can't stand his neighbor Scott. Scott's constant antics, like swapping their bins and leaving his Christmas lights up all year, drive Neil crazy. However, he seems to be the only one on the street who has a problem with Scott.
Things take a turn for the worse when their neighbors try to promote Scott as the new head of Neighbourhood Watch. This leads to a heated argument between the two men, resulting in a power outage on the entire street on Christmas Eve. With tensions high and no electricity, Neil and Scott must team up when a notorious local crime family decides to rob the street in one night.
But with Neil being blind and no lights, cameras or alarms to help them, their work is cut out for them. Despite the challenges, the two men must work together to protect their community. Viewers who have watched the film can't stop talking about it, with many sharing their thoughts on social media.
Debbie posted on X, "I watched Bad Tidings last night and it's absolutely brilliant. I haven't belly laughed like that in years! It's like a proper Home Alone for adults." Darren also loved the film, saying, "Absolutely loved Bad Tidings on Sky TV. Great cast and laugh out loud script. Lee Mack and Chris McCausland work really well together. This could definitely be a series. It's feel good TV at its best."
Jacinta was also blown away by the film, "So, I just watched Bad Tidings, and it was so funny. One of the best and funniest I've seen in ages. Chris was in his element and at his best and funniest. You all have got to watch it!" Many viewers have even declared that this will be a film they watch every year, and some are even calling for a sequel.
This isn't the first time Lee and Chris have worked together, as they have previously appeared on panel shows and Lee's sitcom Not Going Out. When asked about approaching Lee for Bad Tidings, Chris joked, "I thought, 'Let's get that idiot involved, too. He's the best in his price range.'"
Despite the long and tiring night shoots for the film, the two actors seem to have had a blast working together. They even joked about the possibility of a sequel, with Lee saying, "I've got one eye on retirement and a greenhouse now, so if you're interviewing us on Bad Tidings 9 and I'm back in Romford for the ninth year running, I might be slightly irritated."
For those who haven't seen it yet, Bad Tidings is available to stream on Now. Don't miss out on this hilarious and heart-warming holiday film.
