Merry Christmas one and all! Yet again we find ourselves between Christmas and New Year, hopefully enjoying a well-earned break. And for the sixth time we have entered the studio with a total of twelve (one for each day of Christmas) weird and wonderful gifts for our listeners. 

This year we have everything from poetry to scary sounds, from the joys of solitude to a nostalgic unsung hero of music, to join you while you recharge the batteries or set out on some nice long walks to blow away the cobwebs. We hope you enjoy this extra-long light episode, and wish you all the best for a restful break and a happy new year. 

You can watch us recording this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/DLhu7LRIq88 - and we make good use of the shiny new big screen, so if you haven't checked out our vide versions yet, take a look!

PS - we have truncated Anna Lapwood's recording from the Albert Hall to try and stay on the right side of 'fair use' copyright provisions. If you want to hear the whole thing, you can watch on YouTube here.

Best wishes from Emma & Tom
