Uncle Eric's White Christmas
T850534486
Christmas 1969 looks like it's going to be a white one. By December, the snow lies deep and crisp and even. The forecast is for plenty more to come. And Eric thinks the Festive Season has arrived early when Madge inherits a sackload of money. The only problem is how to get his hands on it. So it's tidings of comfort and joy when Eric finds a bookmaker still prepared to take bets on whether it will snow on Christmas Day. He puts all Madge's money on a white Christmas and, when he wins, will keep the profits - with Madge none the wiser! It's a foolproof plan and what could possibly go wrong? But then the freak heatwave arrives and Eric's not a merry gentleman! Amid the quickest thaw in history, he's got just three days to find a way to win his bet, get Madge her money back, and save his own skin. He starts by getting a seasonal job at the Met Office . . . Join Eric, Madge and our favourite musical misfits for some comic Christmas mayhem and twenty-three of the greatest songs of the 1960s. Comedy, nostalgia and, hopefully, at least one flake of snow
