Find love in the heart of England this Christmas

Kate teams up with Harriet’s co-Christmas market owner Dylan to bring order to this whirlwind wedding, but will Kate find her own love in the heart of England this Christmas?

Thoughts

I didn't think this was going to be a particularly good movie, the title being a pretty bad start to things. But I was curious and gave it a go. It was terrible. Really bad and obvious sets, some dodgy accent work, terrible dialogue and implausible storylines. I suspect there was going to be some falling in love at some point, but there was no chemistry between any of the characters, either the sisters, the ones who were getting married, or the ones who were presumably going to end up together. Best avoided.
