Слайд 10Christmas Lunch is the most important meal over Christmas.
Not only

is the food important but so too is the decoration

on the table. Most tables have a holiday themed centre-piece in the middle. Apart from cutlery and napkins, diners also have a Christmas cracker
which is pulled during lunch. Inside each cracker there
is a hat, a few jokes and a gift. The quality of the
gift depends on the cracker but some people have
paid up to €6m for just six crackers. The prizes in
those crackers included yachts, cars and expensive
jewellery.

Слайд 12Television
With lunch over, presents opened, it is now time

to put your feet up and watch some TV. Most

programmes have a Christmas special but what really gets the ratings on Christmas Day are the Soap Operas!!!

Britain is home to some of the longest running soap operas in the world and at Christmas they usually contain major plotlines to keep people watching. Normally they last an hour and the shows are aired in two parts. Up to 16m can watch them on Christmas Day.

Do you have anything similar in your country?

Слайд 13Another important event on TV every Christmas is the Queen’s

speech which is aired at 3pm on Christmas Day. The

broadcast normally lasts 5 minutes and in it the Queen reflects on the previous 12 months of the year. Although it is mainly watched by those in the UK, it is also viewed around the world.

An alternative to the Queen’s speech is
broadcast on Channel 4 at the same time.
This has been happening since 1993. It
normally is a message with humour but
sometimes it can have a serious tone. People who have made
the speech include Marge & Lisa Simpson and Edward Snowdon.

Слайд 20It is often said that Santa Claus wears red after

a Coca Cola campaign changed his traditional green suit to

red. This is not true! Coca-Cola’s 1931 advert was the first major advertisement to appear in many countries and so many people attribute the change in colour to the beverage company. But Santa was wearing red long before that.

In saying that, Coca-Cola did help in changing the appearance of Santa into a much more appealing character. Santa had been depicted as an elf, an old man with a hunch and a priest. In 1931 Coca-Cola launched their famous campaign and since then, the jolly, plump St Nick that we have all come to know and love has been used on everything. So in a way they did change Santa Claus.
