Celebrates Christmas at Warwick Castle.
Since early Norman times, castles have traditionally opened their doors to local people at Christmas. This still happens at Warwick. Caron Keating joins the thousands who each year fill the courtyard with their lanterns to sing carols. In the Great
Hall, Alan Titchmarsh finds out how the early French occupants of the castle celebrated Christmas. He's joined by Maddy Prior, the Carnival Band and some
Coventry mystery players. Noel Nouvelet ; Sussex Carol;
