Harrison is shocked by some harsh criticism and Russ gets his wires crossed
Eddie’s been inundated with applicants to audition for the role of Father Christmas at The Grundy World of Christmas, so Clarrie persuades him to host auditions at the village hall that evening.
Russ is on the lookout for props for the ghost stories – Leonard tells him to check at the Village Hall, it’s where old tat from the pantos gets stored. Russ assures Leonard he isn’t looking for tat, he wants to create an atmosphere. Russ gets his wires crossed with Clarrie when he arrives at the Village Hall on the hunt for props, and ends up being added to the Santa audition list.
Leonard and Harrison swap notes on their previous performances as Father Christmas. Eddie isn’t convinced by Leonard’s performance, and is very critical during Harrison’s audition. Eddie explains that it was a close call between Russ and Kenton, but in the end Harrison got the role by a whisker. Harrison agrees to accept the role, but only if he’s not subjected to such a constant barrage of criticism.
