Christmas Links #7


"One victim of spiking said she felt like she had 'been hit by a bus'"


"​Count down to Christmas with favourites selected by Sean Baker, Gillian Anderson, John Waters, Mike Leigh, Gurinder Chadha, Will Sharpe and more."
[Editor's warning: contains Love Actually.]

"Christmas Day was big news for William the Conqueror - and Washington."

"As is traditional on the blog the first festive post after the Christmas introduction is the next volume in the Big Comic Book series from Fleetway, collecting together more classic strips from their flagship title Buster, as well as Whizzer and Chips and Whoopee, the latter of which had already ceased publication by the time this series began. This hardback 256-page whopper pretty much keeps to the same formula as before, which is no bad thing."

"Selected by the Wallpaper* style team, a gleaming array of Christmas baubles for fashion fans featuring fantastical designs from Bottega Veneta, Loewe, Prada and more."

From Mumsnet: "That's near £50 in the next 2 weeks, I could honestly cry."

"All the festive drama from Albert Square in one place."

"I used to work as a receptionist and I'd watch these companies come in, charging more than a thousand quid to decorate a 15ft Christmas tree... I thought I could do a better job."

"Lemony turmeric, gingery cheesecake, boozy almond: This year’s Cookie Week has something for everyone." [$]
