About This Program

Raymond Briggs' festive favourite, a wordless animated fantasy telling the story of a small boy whose snowman magically comes to life and whisks him off on the journey of a lifetime to the North Pole. Howard Blake's score includes the award-winning song Walking in the Air, which was taken to number five in the charts by a young Aled Jones, but is here sung by Peter Auty

The Snowman broadcasts on Channel 4 HD at 3:35pm, Wednesday, 24 December 2025. (Subtitles, repeat)
