The twinkling lights are all up, there's
a chill in the air, little boys and girls are starting to get
excited and, somewhere in the distance, a jolly fat man is whipping
his elves with a cat-o'-nine-tails to work Harder, damn them,
Harder. It's nearly Christmas!
It is the season of good will to all men - even pedantic sods and
giggling morons. It is also the season of binge eating and
drunken arguements. (I think you know where I'm going
here.) Yes! It's time, once more for the Gala of Games,
the Bonanza of Banter, the Surfeit of Silliness that is our
Christmas Cross-Over.
Warning: Explicit Content from the start
It's a more focussed event this year, with only three games, but
what games they are!
Clover IS Nicholas Parsons in 'Just A Minute!' (complete with
fishnet tights)
Matt IS Lord Alan Sidious, searching time,
space and multiple realities for the next 'Sith
Apprentice'
and
Kehaar IS that bloke from the radio who hosts Fighting Talk IN...
'Geeking Talk'
All three are ably assisted, undermined and irritated by Phil,
Mattie and Dion.
LEARN - how to survive in a horror film
DISCOVER - the trans-sexual sensation that is The Wicked Witch of
the West
GASP - at our ability to construct whole sentences under the
influence and still sound convincing
WONDER - how these damn games are scored anyway and...
PONDER - just who is The Best.
Our Intro and Outro music has been kindly provided by John Anealio
from Geek Dad. You can find his Christmas EP at www.johnanealio.com and loads more to
boot.
Also included is a snippet from the fantastic 'It's Beginning To
look A Lot Like Fish-Men' which you can hear in full
at http://www.cthulhulives.org and also purchase the full 'A
Very Scary Solstice' albums.
You may also notice The March Of The Knights music from Romeo and
Juliet. It sounds an awfully lot like the music from The
Apprentice but I'm pretty sure that's just a coincidence.
(Ahem.)
Any other singing is lamentable and should be born with grace and
sympathy. It is Christmas after all...
