Experience all the history and tradition of an olde English holiday season.

"A Victorian Christmas" has been designed to take you on a fascinating journey of discovery, exploring the traditions and customs of this most significant winter festival. From feasting to game playing, carol singing to gift giving, the Victorians stamped their hallmark on Christmas for all time. So, sit back, relax, take a cup of good cheer and enjoy a very merry, Victorian Christmas.

From an Amazon reviewer:

Where to begin - this DVD packs more historic facts in 90 minutes than any English history movie you've ever watched sitting in a college class. If you ever wondered about the history of minced meat pies, Christmas cards, the transition of deciduous to pine trees as the Christmas Tree, how lights, ornaments and garland were introduced to Christmas trees, the ancestory of Queen Victoria, her husband and why Christmas as we know it today was so tied to her, the 12 days of Christmas, Christmas Carols, Oliver Cromwell's near removal of Christmas tradition in the 1600's, the use of Mistletoe - and it's berries, Holly, Christmas Crackers, the origins of Boxing Day - much earlier than Victorian England - and again - Cromwell's banning of this tradition, Father Christmas & St. Nicholas - a duel historic account, Nativity scenes, Charles Dickens, etc... - this may well be the documentary you wish to watch, and even own. It isn't elaborate, nor is it animated, and stunning graphics are scant as well - but this DVD is wealthy in prose, fact and British scene and drawing which will warm your holiday for seasons to come.
