The Twelve Days of Christmas: Day Eleven - The Christmas Tree and Decorations

We're at the home stretch now. Our penultimate bonus episode on the Twelve Days of Christmas is all about why we decorate our homes with tinsel, fairy lights and, of course, that most beloved of our festive ornaments, the Christmas Tree. But can a dead chunk of oversized shrub really make a happy home? And why was Douglas abandoned as a boy to walk Regent Street alone in the cold night air? All will be revealed on this glorious Winter Solstice. ------ History for You with Douglas and Hugh is a comedy podcast about history written, performed and produced by Adrian Mackinder and James Devonshire, with music by Mike Jones.  Let us know your thoughts and suggestions for future episodes.
