A Victorian Christmas with Liam Dale

Step back in time and join me, Liam Dale, for a special YouTube presentation of "A Victorian Christmas." In today's challenging world, let's take a festive escape together for an hour or so.

Discover how Queen Victoria and, more importantly, Prince Albert played a pivotal role in establishing Christmas as the most cherished holiday of their era. This program is a labor of love, featuring genuine candle-lit Christmas trees, the warmth of filming my then young sons during a reading of "A Christmas Carol," the recreation of the Snap-Dragon tradition, and the fiery, brandy-burning Victorian pudding game. With the use of my personal Victorian archive, this project has been an absolute pleasure to create.

I invite you to enjoy this festive throwback, where timeless traditions come to life. These historical practices, whether or not you follow the Christian ethic, have the power to unite families, especially during challenging times. As we revel in the holiday spirit, let's spare a thought for those alone, sick, and facing the tragedy of war, poverty, and famine. This classic reminder of a bygone age brings us together in the true spirit of the Yuletide festival.

Sit back, relax, and transport yourself to a Victorian Christmas. Let's make these timeless traditions a part of our celebration, creating powerful moments of unity and joy. 🕯️🎄
