00:03 Memory, it's just being with the family, just all being together.
00:14 Probably going back when my grandparents were still alive
00:19 and now with my own kids.
00:23 Oh my god, my grandchildren.
00:26 Being born and being there for the first Christmas.
00:29 Oh, of course, my other children, but grandchildren
00:32 especially.
00:34 As a child, with my mum and dad, every Christmas was lovely.
00:37 They would go all out.
00:39 And we were totally spoiled and had a fantastic time.
00:41 So every memory I've got is lovely.
00:44 My uncle coming with the presents
00:46 and saying it's from Father Christmas,
00:49 he was always saying, you're going
00:50 to get presents from Father Christmas.
00:51 He never said it was from him, but it's always
00:53 Father Christmas.
00:55 And he used to go to his house for a haircut,
00:59 because he was at the barbershop.
01:01 So we used to go to his house and have our hair cut
01:04 for Christmas as well.
01:06 My favorite memory of Christmas is definitely
01:09 me and my sister being sat on the top step
01:13 at the top of the stairs.
01:14 And my dad would go downstairs to see if Santa had been.
01:17 And he'd pop the Christmas lights on.
01:19 And then he'd shout, kids, who's been?
01:21 And we'd come running downstairs.
01:23 Favorite Christmas memories?
01:27 Trying to think of a precise thing.
01:29 Yeah, yeah.
01:30 This is also probably when the children were little.
01:37 Yeah.
01:37 Not a definite single memory.
01:40 I can remember--
01:41 I used to love going to the-- where we grew up,
01:43 there was a forest.
01:44 And we used to go and get our Christmas tree from the forest.
01:47 So I loved doing that.
