The Duke (2020) 12 
7.30pm Palace Theatre 1hr 35m

In 1961, Kempton Bunton, a 60-year-old taxi driver, stole Goya’s portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London.  It was the first (and remains the only) theft in the Gallery’s history. Kempton went on to send ransom notes saying that he would return the painting on condition that the government invested more in care for the elderly - he had long campaigned for pensioners to receive free television. Starring: Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren.

The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) U
1.00pm Palace Theatre 1hr 26m

The Muppets present their own version of Charles Dickens’ immortal festive tale about a bitter old miser who is shown the error of his ways. Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine) is the antithesis of the Christmas spirit. The money lender tyrannises his employees, who include Bob Cratchit (a role assumed by Kermit the Frog), and is utterly dismissive when his eager nephew, Fred (Steven Mackintosh), comes to invite him to Christmas dinner.
 

The Bishop's Wife (1947) U
4.00pm Palace Theatre 1hr 45m

A Christmas fantasy tale. Angel Dudley (Cary Grant) comes to Earth to help out a bishop Henry Brougham (David Niven) who is involved in a desperate fundraising appeal to build a cathedral. However, his financial concerns have led him to become cut off from his wife and parishioners, a state of affairs the suave angel intends to put straight.

Last Christmas (2019) 12
7.30pm Palace Theatre 1hr 39m

Kate (Emilia Clarke) harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop. Tom (Henry Golding) seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart … and you gotta have faith.
