A quiet, memorable tale of make-believe.
It's not necessarily a Christmas-themed video, but is often aired in that season.
Note that Aled Jones, the boy soprano, has released recordings of his mature self over-dubbed with the favorite song "I'm Flying in the Air" (as well as other tracks), that are quite good (available on YouTube).
(Most current reading dates are on the dvd copy).

Substance: Adaptations of 6 stories, in 3 paired sets. Animation is true to Potter's style, with live-action sequences before and after the stories. Music is quiet, mostly a single song in the live-action parts.
