Christmas movie lovers have revealed the top Christmas movies they have re- watched the most, with Home Alone taking the top spot.

The 1990 classic, starring Macaulay Culkin, came in just ahead of The Snowman and Love Actually.

The research was commissioned by The National Lottery in the UK.

A poll of 2,000 adults found that the average film fan reckons they have seen their favourite festive flick as many as eight times – with Elf, Die Hard, and The Holiday also ranking highly.

The top reasons for re-watching festive films included simply enjoying it (52%), feeling nostalgic (40%), and it becoming a tradition (31%).

One in four feel like it is officially Christmas after settling in to watch a good seasonal movie – and almost half (44%) prefer the “classics”, like It's A Wonderful Life, to anything modern.

The survey also found on average people watch seven Christmas films a year, and Christmas eve is the most popular day to do so.
