    Merry Britsmas 64: Christmas In July and Paradise

    It's Christmas in July! So it's time for some summery xmas things on Merry Britsmas including some (incredibly vaguely linked) festive songs about sun and summer, as well as a look at Death In Paradise, a show about crime, the Caribbean, and, in this episode, Christmas. I also ask and answer some more festive questions and hope you will answer them too!  The Sunflower Thieves - It's Not Like The Xmas Films  The Eves - Xmas In Summertime Los Bitchos - Los Chrismos  Leo Sayer - Xmas In July
