Christmas TV 2025: Kids telly and family shows to watch this year

A new animation featuring BBC Children in Need’s famous bear will be released over Christmas, following young Jai as they navigate a journey of loss with Pudsey.
It’s based on a story by musician and writer Tom Fletcher, who says: “I hope that, together, through the animation and the book, we can raise money and awareness that helps provide support, connection, and care – when it matters most.”
It’ll air on Christmas Eve on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, and then Saturday 27 December on CBeebies and CBBC.
