Advent Calendar 2019 Day 23: St Paul's Boys Choir on Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, 1981



Famously John Lennon was knocked off the Christmas number one spot in 1980 by St Winifred's School Choir. A year later the local choir to the Crofton Parish Church Choir, Orpington combined the two parties by covering Let It Be, but despite featuring on the last Swap Shop before Christmas it didn't chart. Look at that shapes that guitarist is throwing, and think about Noel thanking toy manufacturers for sending in their wares before chiding the choir for their appearance.
