Have you got your baubles and bits out yet? Still a bit early if you have and you’ll be setting off those ‘but we’re not even out of November yet’ ninnies on social meedya, but we are definitely getting closer to that annual trip into the loft. And while we’ve still got a wee wait before we can fire up our Blue Peter advent calendars we are, officially, just one month away by the Gregorian calendar from our extra-special Christmas Voices.

Date and time is detailed on the poster below, and if you have any special requests for backing tracks please don’t hesitate to ask. We can’t guarantee we’ll be able to deliver, but we’ll certainly do our damndest. You can use the contact form here on the site or give us a shout on the Facebook page where you can, if you’re a first timer, get the skinny on just what you’ve been missing.
