The Beatles and Spice Girls both managed three consecutive Christmas Number 1s, and so did Cliff Richard when you factor in his vocals on 1989's Band Aid II, which is sandwiched between Mistletoe and Wine and Saviour's Day. Paul McCartney is perhaps an even bigger King of Christmas than Cliff though - he appears across eight Christmas chart toppers.
Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is the only song to be Christmas Number 1 twice by the same act, and the song was a double A-side when it returned to the top in 1991 with These Are The Days Of Our Lives. The Beatles, Wings and Westlife are the other acts to take a double A-side to the top.
