Christmas Eve

The Amazing Mr. Blunden

Sky Max, 7pm

Martin’s Close

BBC Four, 10pm

Hark back to the Victorian tradition of ghost storytelling on Christmas Eve with this spooky adaptation of MR James’ 1911 short story, Martin’s Close.

Mark Gatiss (Sherlock) adapts this terrifying tale, which follows the murder trial of the well-to do young man John Martin, played by Wilf Scolding (Game of Thrones), in 1684.
