Would a Christmas without internet significantly affect your day?

A recent survey shows over a third of UK adults believe losing internet would ruin their Christmas Day.

From streaming festive films and video calling family to checking recipes and setting up smart gifts, online access now plays a central role in holiday celebrations.

The research highlights how digital habits are embedded in modern traditions, with many people saying a connection failure would cause frustration, boredom or disappointment.

Some even said it would have a bigger impact than a burnt turkey.

As families become more reliant on tech for joy, communication and entertainment, internet access is increasingly viewed as essential for a smooth and enjoyable Christmas.
