Since many of them take the dear Lord's name in vain, or at least in a miserable fashion (i.e. The Fall), or refer to non-Christian elements of Christmas like the so-called "reindeer", I suspect it is only a matter of time before the tabloid press in the UK seize on it as another example of the abolishing of Christmas and the anti-Christian bias of the BBC.

In the meantime, download and enjoy.
