Without exception, every year we curl up on our sofas to rewatch all of our classics from the Christmas film canon.

After watching the romantic comedy bring me to tears Actually love And The holiday next to the oldies, but like goldies It’s a wonderful life and iconic family films like The Grinch – for many of us, our all-time favorite is none other than Home alone.

The family comedy has stood the test of time after first hitting our screens in 1990 and warming our hearts, with a cast including the fresh-faced Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Heard and Catherine O’Hara.

The plot of the first film revolves around eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Culkin), who is accidentally left behind when his family leaves for France. At first he’s happy to be in charge; But when thieves try to break into his house, he fights like no other.

After the success of the first film Home Alone 2: Lost in New Yorkk was released just two years later, in 1992.

Fans of the franchise were introduced to an entirely new setting and some new characters, including Donald Trump, who Culkin’s character encountered on the streets of the Big Apple.

In the film, Kevin also befriends someone who became known as the “Pigeon Lady” due to her closeness to her feathered friends – played by Brenda Fricker.

Over the years, eagle-eyed fans of the sequel also pointed out her uncanny resemblance to none other than Piers Morgan.

Every year, without fail, someone chimes in to say that the Dove Lady is “Piers Morgan in a wig,” and one person writes on Twitter, “@piersmorgan I just have to applaud you for your outstanding acting.” Home alone 2.”

Another joked: “Annual reminder that Piers Morgan started out as a pigeon lady.” Home alone 2.”

The allegations were so relentless that the 59-year-old broadcaster was once forced to deny the rumors and put an end once and for all to speculation that he appeared in the cameo role.

Back in 2020 when Morgan was still presenting Good morning BritainHis co-host Susanna Reid claimed she could prove it.

Reid said, “Can we just take a look at this?” Home alone 2 because honestly it’s the best picture.

“Because a lot of people are watching Home alone 2 and wonder if that’s you.

Morgan then hit out: “Why does this keep happening? That’s not me. I’m not the bag lady.” Home alone 2.”

Reid then showed the “proof” with a snap of Morgan covered in pigeons during a 2013 one when even his own son brought it to light.

I’m still not entirely convinced, I can’t lie…
