It’s hard to believe Christmas is in just a few short days. It seems like only yesterday when I marked my calendar for the release of The Force Awakens, filled with anticipation at the thought of seeing Star Wars on the silver screen, with Christmas at the back of my mind as a distant, far-off thought.
