"Based on Max Lucadoâs 2013 book of the same name. The Christmas Candle is a timeless holiday film for the entire family. Deep in the heart of the English countryside lays the enchanting village of Gladbury. Legend has it every twenty-five years an angel visits the village candle maker and touches a single candle. Whoever lights the Christmas Candle will receive a miracle on Christmas Eve. But in 1890, at the dawn of the electric age, this centuries old legend may come to an end. When David Richmond (Hans Matheson), a progressive young minister from London arrives in Gladbury the villagers discover a new formula for miracles; good deeds and acts of kindness. Now with a skeptic in the pulpit the fiery candle maker Edward Haddington (Sylvester McCoy) must fight to preserve his family's legacy. When the Christmas Candle goes missing the miraculous and human collide in the most astonishing Christmas the village of Gladbury has ever seen. Starring Hans Matheson (Clash of the Titans, Sherlock Holmes), Samantha Barks (Les Miserables), Lesley Manville (Disney's A Christmas Carol), and Sylvester McCoy (The Hobbit Trilogy, Doctor Who). Also starring John Hannah (The Mummy, Four Weddings and a Funeral) and Barbra Flynn (Miss Potter) with James Cosmo (Game of Thrones, Braveheart) and introducing singing phenomenon Susan Boyle." - Baker & Taylor
