Festive short documentaries and adventures in sound presented by Josie Long.

Josie Long presents festive short documentaries for Christmas Eve.

A 6 year old takes a rather un-childlike view on the realities of Santa Claus, Icelandic Christmas characters creep out of the darkness, Scottee tells the story of a loving gift that travelled across countries and generations and the festive season bursts into song.
