It's Christmas in July! So it's time for some summery xmas things on Merry Britsmas including some (incredibly vaguely linked) festive songs about sun and summer, as well as a look at Death In Paradise, a show about crime, the Caribbean, and, in this episode, Christmas. I also ask and answer some more festive questions and hope you will answer them too!

MERRY BIRTHDAY! April is my Birthday month so I went seeking other birthday connections, looking at two famous people with April birthdays by exploring Leona Lewis' brilliant festive album and a TV show about a very famous playwright born in April.
