00:00 Dear Father Christmas.
00:02 Dear Santa, Dad hates Christmas.
00:04 There you have it, Santa's task is impossible.
00:07 I'm scared he's on the naughty list.
00:08 Ugly and garish.
00:10 He always spoils it by taking us to some boring ski resort.
00:13 Oh, I can't wait to get away.
00:15 What I really want is for my Dad to like Christmas as much as me.
00:19 Tonight I breathe a sigh of relief that our non-Christmas holiday begins soon.
00:27 Apparently there was a mix-up, they overbooked.
00:29 What are you saying?
00:30 Don't worry, we got the same rate at the other resort.
00:32 Other resort?
00:33 The Crazy Reindeer.
00:34 Dad, we have to go reindeer spotting.
00:40 We're only here for three days and there's lots of skiing to do.
00:42 We're not interested in overpriced excursions and diversions.
00:45 You do realise there's no snow on the slopes?
00:48 We have dry slopes.
00:50 Remember, you are a force in motion.
00:54 Lean into it.
00:58 Let's get it out of his system and we'll do the fun stuff later.
01:01 Hello dear, would you like to see Santa's reindeer?
01:05 I'd love to.
01:06 We have zoos back in England, thank you.
01:08 God forbid you add on some happy family memories.
01:11 I'm so out of touch with my family, it's a wonder they don't leave me.
01:15 I don't suppose you have any tickets left for today's Santa talk?
01:18 Of course.
01:19 I really am a terrible Dad.
01:28 There's real magic here at the North Pole.
01:30 The past will never be the present.
01:34 You just need to open your eyes
01:38 and see what a wonderful family you've got in front of you.
01:42 Merry Christmas, everyone.
01:47 Merry Christmas.
