    Hi Tezlee22 

    There are a number of channels, including a few freeview channels that aren't yet available on the VM Stream box, the same goes with Sky Stream as they haven't managed to obtain agreement with the broadcasters..

    I'm sorry to say that neither Christmas 24 or Christmas 24+ are available on VM Stream boxes.   If you had the TV360 box from VM and also subscribed to Sky Movies then you would have access to both Christmas 24 and Christmas 24+ channels (They are Sky channels and even on Sky  are only available with a Sky Movies subscription).

    Great Christmas, and Great Action which are freeview channels aren't available on VM Stream either, however Great Movies is available on channel 425 and will be showing Christmas movies on Sunday 12th November between 9am and 2pm and possibly more on following weekends

    Channel 5 have been showing Christmas themed movies on weekday and weekend afternoons, which are also available under Films in the My5 app..

    There is a large selection of Christmas themed movies if you use the ITVX app which is available on the Stream box. There is also a selection of "Christmas in Summer" movies on the Pluto app, again available on your Stream box.

    There will be other Christmas movies available too via Stream apps if you subscribe to Prime, Netflix, Disney+ (not sure about Apple TV +)

Oh that would be annoying. I don’t have a single Christmas channel. The one I was looking for was christmas24.
