An Old Fashioned Christmas (2010)

Catherine Steadman and Jacqueline Bisset star in this drama directed by Don McBrearty. Aspiring writer Tilly (Steadman) has been travelling around Europe with her grandmother Isabella (Bisset) being shown what it is like to live in modern 1870's society. As they arrive in Dublin Isabella plans to teach Tilly the value of letters and the written word and she sets up a meeting with Ireland's poet laureate the Earl of Shannon (Robert O'Mahoney). What Isabella fails to tell Tilly, however, is that the Earl of Shannon is a past love and she hopes that he will pull some strings to get Tilly's work published.
