About this listen

In this delightful sleigh ride through Christmas history, Paul Kerensa answers the festive questions you never thought to ask....

Did Cromwell help shape the mince pie?

Was St Nicholas the first to use an automatic door?

Which classic Christmas crooners were inspired by a Hollywood heatwave?

And did King Herod really have a wife called Doris?

Whether you mull on wine or enjoy the biggest turkey, the biggest tree, or the biggest credit card bill, unwrap your story through our twelve dates of Christmas past. From Roman revelry to singing Bing, via Santa, Scrooge, and a snoozing saviour, this timeless tale is perfect trivia fodder for the Christmas dinner table.
