Work Advent Calendar 2018 Day 19: BBC2, Christmas Eve 1979

Rotating snowflakes served BBC2 well down the years, and the trailer for the TV premiere of Cabaret - strange that wasn't on BBC1 and was as late as 10.45pm, but anyway - combined with the multicoloured visual effects makes it sound like they've been taken down the circus. After Singin' In The Rain Tim Nichols transfers us into the big day with a warning on road conditions and a wintry piano ballad.
