The Christmas Setup has received an air date in the UK. Following its premiere in the United States on Lifetime over the weekend, the LGBTQ+ holiday film has been confirmed to air Thursday (17 December) in the UK on Channel 5 at 3.15pm.
Ben Lewis, known for his role as William Clayton on Arrow, plays an NYC-based lawyer who returns home to Milwaukee to spend Christmas with his best friend (Ellen Wong) and mum (Fran Drescher).
Unbeknownst to him, Madelyn has arranged for Hugo to run into his high school friend and former crush (played by Lewis’ real-life husband Blake Lee), who has returned from a successful stint in Silicon Valley.
