This Christmas Eve, you may be settling down with a hot cup of cocoa, mulled wine or a strong eggnog, ready for a full on day of festivities tomorrow and on television this afternoon on BBC2 at 3.55pm on Saturday, December 24, is the story of the author behind the best selling book The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, Charlie Mackesy.
If you're not familiar with the name, you will most likely be with his book and drawings, which have been brought to life in an animated adaptation which airs on Chrsitmas Eve also on BBC1 at 4.55pm.
The tale tells the story of, as reported by the Radio Times, "a boy and his animal companions, who share a series of brief but profound conversations on the nature of friendship as they journey together in the youngster's search for home".
