Families up and down the UK are beginning to gather together to awaken the festive spirit with a Christmas classic on the TV. And while movies like Elf and Home Alone have become timeless staples in our festive routines, they're not the picture perfect movies you might think - with a plethora of plot holes and camera trickery threatening to spoil the magic.

The Holiday's perfect bubble was burst for some fans when Jude Law spilled filming secrets from the Christmas classic on BBC Radio 2 this week and revealed the cottage owned by Kate Winslet's character Iris is not even real.
