THE HOME ALONE films are Christmas classics.

It all kicks off when eight-year-old Kevin is accidentally left behind when his family leaves for France for the holidays.

In the second movie, Kevin accidentally boards a flight to New York, yet again being separated from his family. 

It’s all very dramatic and unrealistic, really, but the films make for excellent festive viewings, nonetheless. 

Let’s see how much you know about the movies…
