DESCRIPTION:
(from Hallmark Media's press release, September 2025) The limited series Twelve Dates 'Til Christmas, based on the popular book The Twelve Dates of Christmas by Jenni Bayliss, premieres on December 5. Mae Whitman stars as Kate, a Saville Row textile pattern designer, living in the quaint village of Blexford, England. When her best friend Laura (Lucy Eaton) signs her up for The 12 Dates of Christmas - a festively themed matchmaking program in the days leading up to the holiday featuring carefully curated, yuletide dating experiences, Kate is forced to get out of her rut. As she wends her way through the 12 dates, she takes a circuitous route to romance while also making some important discoveries about herself.
