The official Christmas FM thread

I find I need to be in a certain mood to listen to the Christmas Past podcast, the presenters voice is so monotone I find it difficult to stay focused like I do for other podcasts.

Still no word on this year's Charity Partner, but at least all is well in the land of Christmas FM, just got this e-mail update from them 😊

Saw that email earlier and git a wee jolt of excitement!!

that popped up in my inbox too today - made me smile 😃

I wonder will there any new big names presenting this year? Other than a few possible additions, I suspect that most of the presenters will have been with Christmas FM already, including quite a few who have been with the station for years.

Was great having presenters on decorations day, the kids/Mrs usually insists the decorations go up the day of the LLTS which is usually on before the FM broadcast goes live so having presenters online for that made it nice to have as a suitable background accompaniment.

Still a little early for me to listen to full on Christmas tunes, used to be the launch of the FM broadcast, but the last few years I started dipping in from the time the presenters started up online. Will probably do the same this year if they start up early. Classical & Carols the odd indulgence until then.

Odd that we're nearly into October and still haven't had a charity partner announcement. This is the latest its been for as along as I can remember.

9 years ago Christmas FM was a smaller entity though.

I actually tweeted them a couple of weeks back but got no reply.
