Christmas Day has finally arrived, and the foursome, Alice, Ralph, and Nicholas' parents woke up and turned on the radio to hear the Beatles' Christmas message. The announcer said, "And now, live from the Broadcasting House in London, this is BBC Radio 1's Annual Christmas Message!" With that, all of London and the rest of the United Kingdom stopped to listen...

"Good King Wenslers last looked out, on the feast of Steven. As the slow ray round about, deep and crisp and crispy. Brightly showed the boot last night, on the nasty cruel Henly Hall and David Lloyd, Betty Grable, too!"

"Hello! This...

With Christmas Eve in full swing, everyone returned to Trafalgar Square to see the giant Christmas tree again. Alice became awed by it and said, "Now that is probably the biggest Christmas tree I've ever seen!" Ralph added, "Same for me! It's so gorgeous, too!" Rosie, Nicholas, the Geordie twins, and the Beatles nodded in agreement. After taking more photos, Ringo saw a poster and said, "There's going to be a spectacular dancing lights show here tomorrow at 8:00 pm. Let's watch this after our Christmas message broadcast and party!" Rosie replied, "Oh, sure! I bet it's gonna be a wonderful show." Nicholas added, "It will, indeed, love." The group then ate dinner before going back to the dorm. Upon returning, they all got ready to sleep so they can be fully rested for the 25th.

Gordon and the Double Decker Coaches

Gordon was feeling grumpy. This was making James cross. "Why are you complaining all the time?" Asked James.

"Because I am a splendid express engine. You're just a small engine that gets nothing, but ideas above their station."

"I can't see any." Replied Percy.

"Any what?" Said Gordon.

"Ideas above the station." Said Percy nervously.

"It's just a saying. Little green engines like you are too stupid to understand." Said Gordon.

James laughed, but Gordon was still grumpy, and left the sheds.

"Stupid inspector." Said Gordon to himself, "He got scared...
