The Truth About Christmas Carols BBC TV Special
There could be nothing more sweet and sentimental than the sound of traditional holiday carols performed by a velvet-voiced choir at Christmas. Or so you would think. Composer Howard Goodall uncovers the surprising and often secret history of the Christmas carol.
Far from being accepted as part of the celebrations of Jesus's birth, over the centuries carols have been banned by both church and state. The carols we sing seem set in stone and yet they can have up to 400 regional variations. Individual carols have caused controversy - While Shepherds Watched had to be cleaned up by the Victorians for being too crude and there's a suspicion that O Come All Ye Faithful was a call to 18th-century Jacobites to rebel.
The documentary celebrates the enduring power of the carol with a variety of performances from folk singer Bella Hardy to the choir of Truro Cathedral.

The Nutcracker Ballet by the Slovak National Theatre
The Nutcracker Ballet is a return to holiday traditional and a fairytale journey through a Christmas story performed by soloists, the Slovak National Ballet Choir and the students of the E. Jaczova Dance Conservatory.
The main inspiration for Tchaikovsky, who put his own childhood memories into the score, was the world of children, the world of purity, joy and boundless fantasy. His music is full of amazing melodies and dreaminess and together with the Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty is one of the highlights of the world ballet.
The Nutcracker had its first premiere in the Slovak National Theater in 1928 and since then the Slovak National Theater has never let it go.
