0:00:04 > 0:00:07I'm in Lapland with some very special families for the trip
0:00:07 > 0:00:09of a lifetime.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13And, of course, this is the only way to travel.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17'These children have been seriously ill,
0:00:17 > 0:00:19'and today they're getting a real treat.'
0:00:20 > 0:00:26Reindeers are really fun, and I liked having a ride on the sled.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30'I'll be meeting a little girl who has leukaemia and hearing how
0:00:30 > 0:00:32'her mum has trusted in God.'
0:00:32 > 0:00:35He's like a confidant that I can...
0:00:35 > 0:00:37pour my heart out to.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41'Also this week, we find out why the maitre d'
0:00:41 > 0:00:45'of a top London restaurant decided to give up the high life.'
0:00:45 > 0:00:47I turned to the chauffeur and said,
0:00:47 > 0:00:52"What am I doing serving people whose restaurant bill is £3,000?"
0:00:53 > 0:00:56'And I'll be discovering the origins of the Christmas tree...
0:00:56 > 0:00:58'in Devon!'
0:00:58 > 0:01:01I'm not a huge tinsel fan, but that is amazing.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04It's like the Las Vegas of Christmas trees. It's brilliant.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22'To accompany our Christmas trip to Lapland,
0:01:22 > 0:01:25'we have some great carols, a new song from Matt Redman and
0:01:25 > 0:01:28'a poignant performance from the Military Wives Choir.'
0:01:30 > 0:01:33But our main focus today is definitely these wonderful
0:01:33 > 0:01:38families, who, believe me, deserve some pampering.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41'Very soon, we'll be on the lookout for you-know-who.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45'But let's begin with an uplifting gospel song with an Advent theme.'
0:02:39 > 0:02:42# Hallelujah
0:02:42 > 0:02:46# Ooh-ooh-ooh-lujah
0:03:44 > 0:03:47# Hallelujah
0:03:47 > 0:03:50# Ooh-ooh-ooh-lujah
0:03:50 > 0:03:54# Hallelujah
0:03:54 > 0:04:03# Ooh-ooh-ooh-lujah. #
0:04:05 > 0:04:10'Our Lapland trip started VERY early in the morning at
0:04:10 > 0:04:11'East Midlands Airport,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13'the perfect time for a singsong!'
0:04:13 > 0:04:17# Away in a manger
0:04:17 > 0:04:22# No crib for a bed... #
0:04:22 > 0:04:26'Within four hours, we'd flown 2,000 miles north.'
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- CAPTAIN:- 'We should be crossing the Arctic Circle in exactly
0:04:29 > 0:04:31'19 minutes from now.'
0:04:33 > 0:04:37'And this is Lapland, temperature minus 20 degrees,
0:04:37 > 0:04:42'and the official home of Santa in the city of Rovaniemi.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45'We're so far north, the sun's only up for a few short hours.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56'The charity When You Wish Upon A Star aims to give an
0:04:56 > 0:04:59'unforgettable experience to children who suffer from
0:04:59 > 0:05:01'life-threatening conditions
0:05:01 > 0:05:03'like heart failure, paralysis and cancer.'
0:05:05 > 0:05:07There's reindeer!
0:05:09 > 0:05:12'One of those children is eight-year-old Molly,
0:05:12 > 0:05:14'a very brave little girl.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17'Diagnosed last year with leukaemia,
0:05:17 > 0:05:22'Molly's still having regular courses of treatment.'
0:05:22 > 0:05:25The first thing you think when you hear "leukaemia" is...
0:05:25 > 0:05:28"Not a good thing," because... you're ignorant about
0:05:28 > 0:05:32what it's all about, and straight away you think, "Not good."
0:05:32 > 0:05:38But after you get over the shock, then you just jump straight
0:05:38 > 0:05:41into action to, like, do whatever you've got to do.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45'Fiona could only watch while Molly went through round after round
0:05:45 > 0:05:47'of painful chemotherapy.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50'But the family are now hopeful that she's over the worst.'
0:05:50 > 0:05:55She seems to be responding really well to all her treatment.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58I like that saying, "Stress makes you think that everything
0:05:58 > 0:06:03"has to be done straight away," and faith gives you the...
0:06:03 > 0:06:07reassurance that it's going to happen in God's time and just
0:06:07 > 0:06:11to be patient and... just... That's all you can do.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15So, in all that's happened to you, what keeps you going?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17I just...
0:06:17 > 0:06:22pour my heart out to God and Jesus and tell them my problems
0:06:22 > 0:06:25instead of weighing other people down.
0:06:25 > 0:06:31Yeah, he's like a confidant that I can pour my heart out to...
0:06:31 > 0:06:34and not feel guilty about anything.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39- And you must be so thankful to be here.- Yeah!
0:06:39 > 0:06:43Well, with God's grace it's been put together and everyone's having
0:06:43 > 0:06:45a fantastic time, and...
0:06:45 > 0:06:47It's a very special thing, especially for the children
0:06:47 > 0:06:52that are really, really poorly and being pushed around, you know?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54This is something they never get to
0:06:54 > 0:06:56do in their normal daily life, do they?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- It's a huge blessing, isn't it, to be here?- It is a blessing. Yeah.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06'Here on our Lapland trip,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09'it's the moment the children have all been waiting for.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13'They get to meet Santa!'
0:09:13 > 0:09:14There he is!
0:09:14 > 0:09:15CHILDREN CHEER
0:09:15 > 0:09:19'But Christmas isn't just about giving and receiving presents,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22'it's also a time of year when we think about those less
0:09:22 > 0:09:24'fortunate than ourselves.'
0:09:24 > 0:09:26In our next story, we meet a man who gave up
0:09:26 > 0:09:29a glamorous career amongst London's glitterati
0:09:29 > 0:09:31to devote his life to helping others.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39For most of us, Christmas means eating - lots of it, whether
0:09:39 > 0:09:43it's at home with the family or perhaps out and about with friends.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46But for some people, it's a time when they can't afford to eat
0:09:46 > 0:09:49at all, let alone at a top restaurant like this one.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55'Stephen Chamberlain used to run this fine-dining restaurant
0:09:55 > 0:09:58'in London in the 1980s.'
0:09:58 > 0:10:04When L'Escargot opened in 1981, it was really the only place in
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Soho to be seen, and it was so exciting to be there.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11You could eat the atmosphere! It was full of creativity.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15Princess Diana was there, Cliff Richard was there,
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Madonna came, Prince Andrew.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Or you may not recognise them. I didn't recognise Tom Cruise.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26I was the maitre d', greeter and seater. It's a very exciting job.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28L'Escargot. Lovely.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31'Then, amongst all this glamour,
0:10:31 > 0:10:34'Stephen had a life-changing experience.'
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Well, I was invited to the opening of a hospice,
0:10:37 > 0:10:42and I was absolutely bowled over by the care and love that was
0:10:42 > 0:10:47being offered to people who were basically terminally ill,
0:10:47 > 0:10:49and I stayed for about three hours.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51I'd actually gone with a chauffeur-driven car,
0:10:51 > 0:10:54and the chauffeur was waiting for me.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57And as I came out, I turned to the chauffeur and said,
0:10:57 > 0:10:59"What am I doing?!
0:10:59 > 0:11:05"What am I doing serving people whose restaurant bill is £3,000...
0:11:05 > 0:11:08"when I could be working here?"
0:11:08 > 0:11:12'I handed in my notice at L'Escargot, became a volunteer.'
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Was that a Christian conscience that prompted those things?
0:11:16 > 0:11:17Definitely.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21I had an epiphany moment. I suddenly realised where my Christian
0:11:21 > 0:11:25values were taking me and were going to lead me.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29'The care that you give to customers at L'Escargot you can give to
0:11:29 > 0:11:31'people who really need care.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36'After working as a volunteer at many Christian charities,
0:11:36 > 0:11:39'Stephen is now back in the restaurant business,
0:11:39 > 0:11:42'except this time it's free, for people in need.'
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Are they nice?- Yes, they're very nice.- Oh, good! Well done,
0:11:45 > 0:11:46because you made them.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50'Four years ago, he set up St Laurence's Larder at his church.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54'The standards are still high, and he gives his guests
0:11:54 > 0:11:59'a three-course meal and a taste of the fine-dining experience.'
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- John, would you like to meet Pam? - Hello, John!
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- Nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you. The soup looks good.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05- It's beautiful. Yeah, really nice.- Yeah!
0:12:05 > 0:12:06It's absolutely brilliant,
0:12:06 > 0:12:10and the service they give is brilliant, really.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12This is a lifeline for me, really, so it is.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14They give you food to take away.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16It's better than a five-star hotel,
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- really, so it is, really and truly.- Mm.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- Can I tempt you to a sandwich? - Thank you.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25You know, Stephen, he's a unique sort of a man, you know?
0:12:25 > 0:12:28He is a very special man, yes.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32The most important thing is greeting people and seating them and
0:12:32 > 0:12:35making sure they have a really fabulous time.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37It may only be for four hours,
0:12:37 > 0:12:41but they're treated like royalty and they eat like royalty.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- All right, Chris?- I'm all right, thank you.- Have a good weekend.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- I shall.- Are you going to take some food with you?- I will.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51It makes me feel like a normal human being, you know?
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Like I'm part of the community.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56Andy, are you OK? Yes? Yeah? You OK, Chris? Good, good, good.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58'Christians are asked to serve.'
0:12:58 > 0:13:00And we here at St Laurence's Larder
0:13:00 > 0:13:04are serving people, as Christ asked us to do.
0:13:16 > 0:13:22# Love came down at Christmas
0:13:22 > 0:13:27# Love all lovely, love divine
0:13:27 > 0:13:32# Love was born at Christmas
0:13:32 > 0:13:37# Star and angels gave the sign
0:13:37 > 0:13:42# Love came down, love came down
0:13:42 > 0:13:48# Love came down at Christmas
0:13:53 > 0:13:58# Worship we the godhead
0:13:58 > 0:14:03# Love incarnate, love divine
0:14:03 > 0:14:09# Worship we our Jesus
0:14:09 > 0:14:14# But wherewith for sacred sign?
0:14:14 > 0:14:19# Love came down, love came down
0:14:19 > 0:14:25# Love came down at Christmas
0:14:30 > 0:14:35# Love shall be our token
0:14:35 > 0:14:41# Love be yours and love be mine
0:14:41 > 0:14:46# Love to God and all men
0:14:46 > 0:14:51# Love for plea and gift and sign
0:14:51 > 0:14:56# Love came down, love came down
0:14:56 > 0:15:02# Love came down at Christmas
0:15:02 > 0:15:07# Love came down, love came down
0:15:07 > 0:15:15# Love came down...
0:15:15 > 0:15:24# At Christmas. #
0:15:31 > 0:15:35'Here in the Lapland forest is Santa's very own village post
0:15:35 > 0:15:39'office, where letters can be left for the man himself.'
0:15:39 > 0:15:41It's only a fortnight to Christmas,
0:15:41 > 0:15:45and if you're anything like me, you'll still need some more cards.
0:15:45 > 0:15:50So why not buy some of our Songs Of Praise Christmas cards?
0:15:51 > 0:15:53All the details are on our website...
0:15:56 > 0:15:59..and proceeds go to BBC Children In Need.
0:16:03 > 0:16:08'On our trip, many of the children need constant medical attention,
0:16:08 > 0:16:11'and Michael is one of three paramedics who've taken time
0:16:11 > 0:16:13'off work to help out.'
0:16:13 > 0:16:15I do feel, as an operational paramedic,
0:16:15 > 0:16:19that I am serving God, Queen and country, and I do feel that,
0:16:19 > 0:16:22actually, it is making a difference.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26'Giving up time for a day like this is so special for many reasons.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29'It makes the day for the children.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32'It's an honour and a privilege, really, to share same of the
0:16:32 > 0:16:36'fantastic memories that they will be able to share as a family.'
0:16:36 > 0:16:37Well done!
0:16:37 > 0:16:42Our next carol is brand-new from the worship leader Matt Redman.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44It's a fresh interpretation on the carol
0:16:44 > 0:16:48O Little Town Of Bethlehem, and it's performed from the crypt
0:16:48 > 0:16:52at Lambeth Palace, the London home of the Archbishop of Canterbury.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02# O little town of Bethlehem
0:17:02 > 0:17:05# How still we see thee lie
0:17:07 > 0:17:11# Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
0:17:11 > 0:17:14# The silent stars go by
0:17:15 > 0:17:19# Yet in thy dark streets shineth
0:17:19 > 0:17:22# The everlasting light
0:17:23 > 0:17:28# The hopes and fears of all the years
0:17:28 > 0:17:31# Are met in thee tonight
0:17:33 > 0:17:38# And the glory of Christmas
0:17:38 > 0:17:42# Is the glory of Christ
0:17:42 > 0:17:46# And the glory of Christmas
0:17:46 > 0:17:51# Is the story of his love
0:17:53 > 0:17:57# O holy child of Bethlehem
0:17:57 > 0:18:01# Descend to us, we pray
0:18:01 > 0:18:05# Cast out our sin and enter in
0:18:05 > 0:18:09# Be born in us today
0:18:09 > 0:18:14# We hear the Christmas angels
0:18:14 > 0:18:17# The great glad tidings tell
0:18:17 > 0:18:22# Oh, come to us, abide with us
0:18:22 > 0:18:26# Our Lord Emmanuel
0:18:26 > 0:18:30# And the glory of Christmas
0:18:30 > 0:18:35# Is the glory of Christ
0:18:35 > 0:18:39# And the glory of Christmas
0:18:39 > 0:18:46# Is the story of his love
0:18:47 > 0:18:51# Oh, the story of his love
0:18:51 > 0:18:55# His love, his love for us
0:18:55 > 0:18:59# Oh, the story of his love
0:19:00 > 0:19:05# How silently, how silently
0:19:05 > 0:19:07# The wondrous gift is given
0:19:08 > 0:19:13# So God imparts to human hearts
0:19:13 > 0:19:17# The blessings of his heaven
0:19:17 > 0:19:21# No ear may hear his coming
0:19:21 > 0:19:25# But in this world of sin
0:19:25 > 0:19:30# Where meek souls will receive him still
0:19:30 > 0:19:34# The dear Christ enters in
0:19:34 > 0:19:40# Oh, Christ be welcomed in
0:19:40 > 0:19:44# And the glory of Christmas
0:19:44 > 0:19:48# Is the glory of Christ
0:19:48 > 0:19:53# And the glory of Christmas
0:19:53 > 0:19:57# Is the story of his love
0:19:57 > 0:20:02# Oh, the glory of Christmas is...
0:20:04 > 0:20:07# The story of...
0:20:09 > 0:20:10# His love
0:20:15 > 0:20:19# The story of his love. #
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Now, what does a seventh-century saint from Devon have to do
0:20:27 > 0:20:29with one of these?
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Well, before I headed north to Lapland, I went to Crediton
0:20:34 > 0:20:36in Devon to find out.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41'The Christmas Tree Festival in Crediton Parish Church
0:20:41 > 0:20:43'has grown in popularity through the years,
0:20:43 > 0:20:48'with 74 on display this year, each with its own unique theme.'
0:20:50 > 0:20:53My favourite trees here at the festival are the ones that
0:20:53 > 0:20:56the children have made, and I especially like this one,
0:20:56 > 0:20:59which is based on my favourite kids' book, The Hungry Caterpillar.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01I love it. It's absolutely gorgeous.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Look at the yoghurt-pot cupcakes, and, instead of tinsel, you've
0:21:05 > 0:21:08got a string of sausages made out of the inside of toilet-roll tubes.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12And a beautiful butterfly right at the top. It's gorgeous.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Stella, how many years has the festival been going?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20It's been going about 11 years now.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23It's absolutely amazing, and it's just grown every year.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25But we can't really get any more trees in now!
0:21:25 > 0:21:26THEY LAUGH I love that!
0:21:26 > 0:21:29You've had to limit the number of trees that you're allowed in church!
0:21:29 > 0:21:31That's fantastic!
0:21:31 > 0:21:34And what happens to the trees once the festival's all over?
0:21:34 > 0:21:35The trees are actually sold so that
0:21:35 > 0:21:38people can take them home for Christmas.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42'What's amazing is that the origins of this most Christmassy of
0:21:42 > 0:21:46'traditions began with a saint from right here in Devon.'
0:21:52 > 0:21:54St Boniface was born here in Crediton,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57but he didn't stay here for very long.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59He went to school in the monastery in Exeter,
0:21:59 > 0:22:02and then he became a monk himself.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04He had a real passion to go over
0:22:04 > 0:22:06to what we now call Germany and Holland
0:22:06 > 0:22:09and to share the Christian gospel
0:22:09 > 0:22:12and also to help re-establish the church there.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14So what's Boniface got to do with Christmas trees, then?
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Well, one of the best known incidents in St Boniface's life
0:22:18 > 0:22:21was where he cut down a sacred oak tree
0:22:21 > 0:22:24which would've been a place of worship for the pagan tribes
0:22:24 > 0:22:28but he wanted to try and establish the Christian faith there
0:22:28 > 0:22:30and the people thought that if he cut down the tree,
0:22:30 > 0:22:33he would be struck down by the spirits.
0:22:33 > 0:22:38But he wasn't and a number of people were converted to Christianity.
0:22:38 > 0:22:44But out of the roots of that old tree, a small fir tree grew up,
0:22:44 > 0:22:47and that was said to be the first Christmas tree.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53I'm not a huge tinsel fan but that is amazing.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56It's so blingy and sparkly,
0:22:56 > 0:22:58it's like the Las Vegas of Christmas trees.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59It's brilliant.
0:23:00 > 0:23:01Have you got your eye on one?
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Ooh, I'd quite like the big one up on the altar but...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Have you got a house big enough for that tree?!
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- No, I'm in a bungalow. - THEY LAUGH
0:23:08 > 0:23:10You better take that little one there then.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Yeah, that's about my size.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I mean, it really brings the community together.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16Oh, it totally does.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19There's just nothing better than a Christmas tree festival
0:23:19 > 0:23:22but what a place to have it, in St Boniface's birthplace.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29These beautiful trees have inspired me to get on
0:23:29 > 0:23:31and decorate my own tree at home.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Before I go, I'm going to make my own contribution
0:23:34 > 0:23:36to the decorations here.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35The children on this special trip have all faced serious illness,
0:25:35 > 0:25:37meaning life has been far from normal.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42Amelia has cancer and she and her dad are enjoying time away
0:25:42 > 0:25:44from the stresses at home.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47It's really good.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50The reindeers were really fun
0:25:50 > 0:25:54and I liked having a ride on the sled as well.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Oh, he likes you.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58'To be honest, it hasn't been great,
0:25:58 > 0:26:00'the year and a half or so that's gone,
0:26:00 > 0:26:01'a lot of days in hospital,'
0:26:01 > 0:26:04but to come here and have a fantastic time like this,
0:26:04 > 0:26:06it is so uplifting
0:26:06 > 0:26:09and just gives us something to look forward to recently.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12I'm so thankful to the charity for putting it on.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13I mean, as Christians,
0:26:13 > 0:26:15we're so aware of people being praying for us,
0:26:15 > 0:26:20supporting us at church, at work, and, you know,
0:26:20 > 0:26:22life is full of uncertainty, you can't avoid that,
0:26:22 > 0:26:24but at least with prayer and support,
0:26:24 > 0:26:26we've been able to get through this difficult time.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30And days like this just make it incredible, don't they? Wonderful.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37And an early sunset means the chance to enjoy some amazing fireworks.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40And I'm catching up with Molly and her mum Fiona.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45It's been amazing.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50I didn't expect it to be this magical and so big
0:26:50 > 0:26:53and Molly certainly didn't expect it to be like this.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55I know, when I spoke to her before we came,
0:26:55 > 0:26:59I don't think she had any idea how it was going to be.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01And how different will this Christmas be
0:27:01 > 0:27:02from previous Christmases?
0:27:02 > 0:27:07It will be much more relaxing this year because she's well
0:27:07 > 0:27:10and, yeah, we'll just all be together,
0:27:10 > 0:27:12we've got lots of presents, it's more organised.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Last year, we just bought anything and put it under the tree,
0:27:15 > 0:27:18just to do what you're supposed to do
0:27:18 > 0:27:21and didn't put a lot of thought into it like we have this year.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26And, yeah, all be together, just like the true spirit of Christmas.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Being together with our families is incredibly special
0:27:33 > 0:27:35at this time of year.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37In fact, it's one of the joys of Christmas,
0:27:37 > 0:27:39but our next song is dedicated
0:27:39 > 0:27:41to those who won't be home for Christmas,
0:27:41 > 0:27:44including those in the armed services.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Here, with an adaptation of a well-known tune
0:27:48 > 0:27:52and some specially written words, are the Military Wives Choir.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59# Home for Christmas
0:27:59 > 0:28:02# We should be
0:28:02 > 0:28:08# Home with friends and family
0:28:10 > 0:28:16# Pray for those both near and far
0:28:16 > 0:28:24# Pray for them where'er they are
0:28:24 > 0:28:30# Let their courage shine on through
0:28:30 > 0:28:36# Show their pride for all they do
0:28:36 > 0:28:42# Home for Christmas, you should be
0:28:42 > 0:28:50# Home for Christmas here with me
0:28:50 > 0:28:56# Bring us peace and bring us love
0:28:56 > 0:29:02# Bring us hope from heaven above
0:29:02 > 0:29:09# The only present that I need
0:29:09 > 0:29:15# Is your presence here with me
0:29:15 > 0:29:21# So come on home, we need you near
0:29:21 > 0:29:28# Come on home, we want you here
0:29:28 > 0:29:34# Home for Christmas, you should be
0:29:34 > 0:29:42# Home for Christmas here with me
0:29:43 > 0:29:49# Hear the bells are ringing
0:29:49 > 0:29:55# You're in our prayers and in our hearts
0:29:55 > 0:30:02# So raise a glass and raise a cheer
0:30:02 > 0:30:08# For our loved ones we hold dear
0:30:08 > 0:30:14# Hark the herald angels sing
0:30:14 > 0:30:22# Glory to the newborn king
0:30:24 > 0:30:30# Home for Christmas, you should be
0:30:30 > 0:30:38# Home for Christmas here with me. #
0:30:42 > 0:30:46It's been an incredibly special day for us all here in Lapland,
0:30:46 > 0:30:48with many memories to treasure.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52Next week, we've Somerset carols by candlelight,
0:30:52 > 0:30:56as David Grant visits the medieval town of Dunster.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59And we end today with our final Christmas carol
0:30:59 > 0:31:04to cheer us on our way so from beautiful Lapland, farewell.
