A cavalcade of English life from New Year's Eve 1899 until 1933 is seen through the eyes of well-to-do Londoners Jane and Robert Marryot. Amongst events touching their family are the Boer War, the death of Queen Victoria, the sinking of the Titanic, and the Great War.
Editor's Verdict
"Cavalcade is a sweeping historical drama covering 34 years of English history. While the narrative begins on New Year's Eve 1899, suggesting the holiday season is the framing device for the *start* of the story, there is no indication that Christmas itself plays any significant role in the major historical events covered (Boer War, Titanic, WWI). All criteria score 'None' or 'Weak' at best."
