A Palace Worker Is Mistaken for Royalty in Hallmark's 'A Not So Royal Christmas'
A Not So Royal Christmas
There's always something fun about movies where there's a case of mistaken identity or someone pretending to be someone else. The Parent Trap, Dave and Galaxy Quest are just a few movies that come to mind. In Hallmark Channel's latest Countdown to Christmas movie, a palace landscaper is mistaken for a count by a tabloid reporter and comedy ensues!
Here's everything we know about A Not So Royal Christmas including a Parade exclusive sneak peek! Check it out!
What is A Not So Royal Christmas about?
With a plum assignment in hand, London-based tabloid journalist Charlotte (Brooke D’Orsay) heads to Nordin, Scandinavia, to secure an interview with the extremely reclusive Lars Ludwig Von Taylor, the Count of Sorhagen.
With an ‘in’ into the palace, Charlotte encounters palace landscaper Adam (Will Kemp), whom she mistakes for the Count and requests an interview. The encounter is witnessed by a member of the Royal Advisory Council, who decides to grant the interview with Adam posing as the Count.
After giving Charlotte a behind-the-scenes look at the organization of the annual festive Yuletide Ball, Adam raises a few royal eyebrows when, as Count Lars, he attempts to break centuries-old traditions.
Things only get more complicated when a photo of the ‘Count’ is leaked to the press, which could royally derail his ruse and shatter any bond the two have formed.
