Advent Calendar 2019 Day 5: Telly Addicts, 1989



There are those who used to take the return of a new series of Telly Addicts as first sign of autumn so it makes sense that they went all in on festive cheer every year. Thirty years ago the Christmas Comedy Special, as presumably opposed to the normal Christmas Special, pitted Frank Carson, Liza Goddard, George Layton and Graeme Garden against Chris Tarrant, Barry Cryer (who very much appreciates the Goons reference in his intro), Jessica Martin and Jim Bowen. Fair warning: some of these people are not making their last appearance on this year's Advent Calendar.

HOOFER-DOOFER HIGHLIGHTS: 1985, 1991 and 1992. We're on our way to the full set!
