    I've heard this one before but Lolly's delivery, little giggles and hmphs really do it justice.

    This is a reimagining of Frank Kelly’s Christmas Countdown, first broadcast on RTE on December 25th, 1983. It’s an Irish comedy classic.

      There was an article in Mad Magazine that had the same idea... in 1979.

    Really feel tha Emily did rather well to maintain such compusure for so long in the face of some quite malicious taunting, Bravo. Edward may have meant well, but it does seem he got a liitle carried away

    Very enjoyable and Lolly's delivery was pitch-perfect. Though I felt Asim's cameo from "upon high" drew the focus away from her for the 12th day. Maybe would have been better to have him walk on to the stage and have him stand beside her? 🤷‍♀

      But why does she say "twenty-sick" instead of "twenty-sixth"? Why can't the English say "sixth"?

    Fun, but I thought this was reserved for *actual* letters. This reminds me of when my friend and mentor Shelley Berman's "hotel soap story" was paraded all over the early internet as a supposed "real set of letters" despite it clearly including his signature (S. Berman) platered all over it...
