  • The Christmas Day Truce 1914 | A Brief Cessation of Fighting on the Western Front

    It was brief, but it was significant. For a brief moment, humanity shone through and enemies could see each other as humans, like them.  Measures were taken to prevent it from happening again, but for this short time, hope and humanity won out!

  • Who was the first monarch to address the nation on Christmas Day?

    The Queen's Christmas message has become a staple in the Christmas Day schedule. It began via a "wireless" address to the Empire by a nervous George V, in 1932. 25 years later, his granddaughter, Elizabeth II did the first televised Christmas Day message!

  • Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' is First Published | 19th Dec 1843

    Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' is first published on 19th Dec 1843, and never goes out of print! It is a tale of human morality against the backdrop of Christmas.  Does it reflect Christmas traditions already established or informs them? Either way, Dickens' image of Christmas endures.
