Christmas II
Festive audio treats, including reflections on a baby's first Christmas, and mixed emotions of a last Christmas - plus an insight into the life of a panto dame.
Getting in the mood for Christmas - a selection of festive audio treats from across England. Featuring the pub serving turkey and mince pies in August; the teen mum preparing for her baby's first Christmas in their new home; and a hospice chaplain and volunteer reflect on bringing festivities to their patients and families. Plus a Victorian Christmas card collector explains why his hobby is so important - and presenter Becca speaks to 大象传媒 Radio Leicester's Martin Ballard about his 30 years of switching a microphone for stage make-up in panto.
Presented and produced by Becca Bryers.
