Unbelievably, its 15 years sinceBilly Elliotwas released, earning itself a part in British movie history.To celebrate that fact, Burberry, another great British institution, has taken the dance-themed film as its inspiration for its 2015 festive campaign.

As ever, it have enlisted a suitably starry cast to bring the Christmas cheer.Elton John and Julie Walters lead a pack of British talent.Both, of course, have ties toBilly Elliot; Walters starred as dance teacher Sandra Wilkinson in the original film, while Elton wrote the music for the films hugely-successful stage adaptation,Billy Elliot the Musical.

Joining them is comedian James Corden, actress Michelle Dockery (better known as Downton Abbeys Lady Mary), musicians James Bay and George Ezra, Romeo Beckham - for whom its the second Burberry Christmas campaign – models Naomi Campbell and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, as well as Rosies brother Toby, who is welcomed into the Burberry fold for the first time.

All appear in a sparkling three-minute film that imitatesBilly Elliots iconic opening credits, in which Billy bounces on his bed to the sound of T-RexsCosmic Dancer.Actual footage from the film is used at the very beginning, showing Billy placing a record on a record player.

Corden, Elton and co bounce gleefully, decked in Burberrys heritage and seasonal trench coats and made-in-Scotland cashmere scarves monogrammed with their initials.

The film is accompanied by a series of still images shot by the brands stalwart campaign photographer Mario Testino featuring Naomil, Rosie, Romeo and James Bay.

Burberry has donated £500,000 in recognition of each artist"s participation in the festive campaign to two charities that help young people in the North of England community of Easington whereBilly Elliotwas filmed.
