116: Christmas Vox Pop 1

Published: Nov. 28, 2020, midnight

In a few days time, the At The Flicks team will start to reveal some of their favourite Christmas movies.\n\nBefore we begin that controversial voyage (very controversial with some of Neil\u2019s choices), we thought it would be a great idea to find out what our listeners and fellow contributors consider their favourites. Did they match ours, were there any ideas we could steal, will this be useful reminder for Neil that Christmas is actually coming etc?\n\nIt was so great talking to everyone that Graham forgot to turn off the recording (makes a change from forgetting to start the recording \u2013 more on that in our end of year reveal) and we ended up with enough material for TWO shows. We did try to edit it down to one, but Jeff insisted we have to let him speak \u2013 you know what divas are like! So you lucky listeners get two vox pops shows. One today and the other tomorrow.\n\nIn this first show we have\n\nBBC presenter Jo Durrant telling us her favourites along with some of her food associations for Christmas\n\nElijah (from revisiting the classics with Elijah) surprising us with a favourite we did not know and also telling us unusual places he has spent the Christmas holidays\n\nRich (from Cindemics Nerds Podcast) tells us about a Christmas Eve film watching tradition so good Jeff plans to copy it this year (well he did until Rich placed a copyright notice on it!!!).\n\nIn the previous show, Em from Verbal Diorama revealed a Christmas film she does not like. It seems there is no love for this British movie as it is mentioned in a negative light again today. What is it? You will have to listen to the show to find out.\n\nTomorrow we will have Vox Pops show 2. More great guests and more of Jeff loving the sound of his own voice.\n\nUntil then stay safe and at least think about putting up that Christmas Tree.\n\nBye for now.
