Hello! Hello, hi I'm Kelly Harlock and I'm Sasha Kelly and you're listening to an incredibly

Christ- Christmas episode of that classical cast. Absolutely I'm wearing my tinsel I've got my Santa hat on Kelly

I'm wearing tinsel I'm wearing tinsel like a Christmas tree.

Wow love it this year has not been great is an understatement, but I think I can say that for most of us. It's not being the best year on record.

But do you know what one thing is that it is solid as a rock my friend?

It is the TCP Christmas special. Come through. Yeah, we are bringing it back.

That is what 2020 is going to finish with, it's going to finish with a bang.

A bang from a Christmas cracker.

And speaking of Christmas crackers, shall I, shall I crack on, Sasha?

I think you should crack right into it.

Ex-less extra extra-straviganza.

Okay, right, the first Christmas Eve piece that I want to get up in your grills is less of a carol I would say more of a

hymn it's from Germany which means I'm so sorry but my terrible German accent is I'm going to have to whip it out another time

and I'm just apologizing in advance but this piece is one of my all-time favorites one of the tunes I hum to myself pretty much constantly

actually at this time of year it's called as is a rose in spongen literally a rose has sprung forth, it's sprung up, but it's often translated into English as

though how a rose air blooming which is great because I actually don't think people use the word low enough in my opinion

No, do you know I can count on one hand the number of times I've said low in real life.

Do you know but I love like hark, vither, betwixt like all these words let's bring them back.

I really hear the yeah exactly like town crier talk I feel like there's definitely a time to bring

it back and it's 2020 um can I just ask a question I mean I'm sure you're gonna answer

this Kelly but I'm gonna jump right in there. I know I come from a slightly different season where my Christmas is,

but isn't it supposed to be snowing in Germany?
