Drinking Game / Love Actually

Go To

Have a drink when…

  • Anyone actually says the word 'actually'; double if it's done as part of a Title Drop
  • Anyone swears
  • The Billy Mack "Christmas is all Around" song is played
  • You see a note on Sam's door
  • There's a story crossover (Daniel talks with Karen, Colin flirts with Mia, etc)
  • There's nudity (so any scene with John and Judy, basically)
  • Sarah's phone rings
  • You spot someone wearing a polo-neck/turtleneck sweater
  • David says or does something cringeworthy
  • THAT dance sequence
  • Jamie tries to speak Portuguese
  • There is a cameo appearance by a celebrity starring as themselves (Michael Parkinson, etc) note 

Serious Drinkers' Bonus Edition: All of the above, plus...

  • Drink whenever someone you're watching the film with does any of the following:
    • Points out that Natalie is not actually fat
    • Expresses dislike for Mia (double shot if it includes a swear word)
    • Points out that Mark's behaviour is actually quite creepy
    • Compares the President to any real-life holder of that office
    • Asks if that really is Claudia Schiffer
    • Refers to any character by the name of a character played by the same actor in another film or TV show (Jamie as 'Mark Darcy', Judy as 'Stacey', John as 'Bilbo Baggins', etc)
