Have your say - should Christmas songs on be played in December?

As the countdown to Christmas Day begins, festive adverts are already appearing on our TV screens, seasonal menus are popping up in coffee shops, and parts of the country have even seen a dusting of snow this week. The question of when to start celebrating is causing a divide across the nation.

Some argue that November is too early to get into the Christmas spirit, while others are already embracing the festivities.

The annual debate over the right time to put up the Christmas tree is in full swing, with many waiting until December 1st before decorating their homes. However, Christmas lights are already twinkling in towns throughout the UK, and celebrities like Stacey Solomon haven't hesitated to fill their homes with holiday decorations.

Despite personal preferences to delay the decor, a trip to the shops or tuning into the radio might confront you with premature Christmas tunes. Radio stations, including Capital and Smooth Radio, have faced criticism for their early festive playlists.

Are you tired of hearing Mariah Carey declaring that all she wants for Christmas is you in November?

Or are you someone who embraces the jolly period, laps up all the good cheer and loves everything to do with the festive season?

The festive season brings with it the perennial debate over Christmas songs, and for some, the sound of George and Andrew's yuletide escapades in 'Last Christmas' can be a source of premature Whamageddon - even before the challenge officially kicks off.

Whamageddon is the game that has divided the nation, where the aim is to make it through December without hearing the original mix of Wham's 'Last Christmas'. Once you've heard it, you're out and have been "Whamageddoned".

But once eliminated, you're free to enjoy what many consider one of the greatest Christmas songs ever.

There's a suggestion that perhaps the target song should switch from 'Last Christmas' to Mariah Carey's 'All I Want For Christmas Is You', which would likely catch most people off guard much sooner.

So, whether you're a year-round Christmas music enthusiast or someone who prefers to keep the festive tunes strictly to December, we want to hear from you.
