Pictures of the festival through 80 years of English life
In 1900, Lady Delia Peel, then 11, celebrated the first Christmas of the new century at Althorp House in Northamptonshire. In 1979 her great grand-niece Anne Peel, now 9, celebrated Christmas at Barton Hall, Norfolk. Between the two events lie nearly 80 Christmases: Christmas in a country house and a council house, in the trenches and in a pub, in peace and war. This film shows how the family festival of English life has changed, and how it has remained the same, reflecting change and continuity in England itself.
