This week’s festive NMA Viral Charts are sprinkled with christmas viral joy. Sitting at the top of the NMA Viral Brand Chart is the superb Social Media Nativity video from ExcentricPT, a web 2.0 spin on the birth of Jesus with the whole cast – including donkey.

My personal favourite this week is No. 7, the teaser trailer for the annual BBC Top Gear Christmas Special. Having watched it, I immediately shared it with my Dad, a trend which I’m sure has pushed it into this week’s NMA Viral Brand Chart.
