Pre-Order Now: Nativity! And Nativity 2 Double Packs



Though it pains us to think that summer might be turning the corner it's a fact that Christmas will be upon us before we realise. However, the lovely folks at Entertainment One have got something in the pipeline to give us all a warm glow during that chilly season. They've packed up Debbie Isitt's two hilarious Christmas films, Nativity! starring Martin Freeman, and Nativity 2: Danger In The Manger starring David Tennant, into one fun-packed box set, so you can enjoy the misadventures of Mr.Poppy and the children of St. Bernadette's Primary School over and over again.


Nativity!
Seasonal, semi-improvised British comedy starring Martin Freeman and Ashley Jensen. Shabby, under-achieving primary school teacher Mr Maddens (Freeman) works at a school that competes annually with a local private school for the best production of the Christmas nativity play. Tired of always playing second fiddle to his arch rival, Gordon Shakespeare (Jason Watkins), Maddens idly concocts a white lie centred around his ex-girlfriend, Hollywood producer Jennifer (Jensen), in which he boasts that she is coming to see his play with a view to turning it into a film. What he omits to mention is that he and she have not spoken to one another for years. Now, with the expectations and burning ambitions of parents, pupils and madcap teaching assistant Mr.Poppy (Marc Wootton) running high, can he possibly turn his elaborate fiction into reality in time to make everyone's Christmas wishes come true? 

Nativity 2: Danger In The Manger!
David Tennant stars in Nativity 2: Danger In The Manger as an anxious teacher who starts a new job at an under-achieving school and quickly finds himself struggling to cope with a wild classroom assistant (Marc Wootton as Mr.Poppy), a group of under-performing kids and his own very pregnant wife (Joanna Page). He soon becomes embroiled in a madcap plan to enter a National ‘Song for Christmas’ Competition and finds himself embarking on a disastrous road trip in search of the competition venue – the ‘Christmas Castle’. Lost in the wilderness with a class of small children, a baby and a donkey, he has to stand up, face his fears and try to lead them not only to safety, but victory. Nativity 2 is part action adventure, part musical and has all the comedy, warmth and heart that audiences love.


The Region 2 DVD and Blu-ray sets will be released in the UK and Europe on Monday 11th November
