Episode 155 – Alistair Sim’s Christmas Carol

Merry Christmas you beautiful people!

Last epsisode I told the story of shame about my Christmas jumer that was too small, but this episode we have a happy ending where a lovely listener gets to win it.

Then I talk about a Christmas Not So Classic, it’s from the very rude British comedian Roy Chubby Brown, it’s called Rockin’ Good Christmas and it’s naff.

Last episode I mentioned the phrase ‘Bob’s your uncle’ and briefly explained, well this episode Bob Baker has actually done some proper research into it in Do You Hear What I Hear?

Then it’s The Christmas Quiz, I scored a respectable 8, make sure you email in your score.

Next up Bob is back and this time he’s looking at Canada in Where Are You Christmas?

In the last episode I explained why the 1951 version of A Christmas Carol starring Alistair Sim was rubbish, this time I explain why it’s fantastic. If you’ve never seen it, shame on you, but here’s a link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knpvLR879fw

This episodes recommendation is Welcome To The Neighbourhood with Jayde Adams, a BBC Radio 4 show that is very funny. Have a search for it, it’s worth a listen.
