Since the turn of the century, Christmas has been on Sunday twice - once in 2005 and then again in 2011 - six years later - and due to the manoeuvring of the leap day in 2016, the next time Christmas will be on Sunday won't be in 2017 - six years later - but in 2016!

In the 1950s and 1960s, Christmas day fell on a Sunday in the following years:195519601966
Christmas has fallen on a Sunday in the following years: 1955, 1960, 1966, 1971, 1977, 1983, 1988, 1994, 2005, 2011, and 2016. This pattern occurs because the Gregorian calendar repeats every 400 years, with Christmas falling on a Sunday every 11 years within that cycle. This is due to the 11-day difference between the Gregorian calendar and the Julian calendar, which was in use when Christmas was established as December 25th.

No. It is a little quirk of how the years that start a century line up. Only 4 days can start a century, and Sunday is not one of them.
Christmas is always on the 25th of December so the day of the week changes every year. Christmas 2011 was on a Sunday so logically it should be on a Sunday in 2018 but because of leap years the next time Christmas will fall on a Sunday will be 2016. The pattern does eventually repeat but not for many years.
