The Queen is right. The winter solstice has been celebrated since the Neolithic, at Stone Henge. Later people would decorate trees with bits of rag to encourage the leaves to return and with them the warm weather. The Yule Log was burnt and the ash spread to counter evil. Then we had a contribution from the farming year. Farmers raised more animals during the year than they had fodder to fed them over the winter. So lots of meat to eat at the solstice. Then the autumn harvest was made into alcohol and ready to drink at this time. Easter is the name of the Goddess of new life and so the association with eggs. The early church tried to stop these traditions, but this failed and so they took them over.

I mean, it depends on what you mean by Christmas. Obviously, not all the elements from everyone's Christmases are from the same pagan traditions. For example, if you celebrate Christmas with Greeks, Armenians, Maronites (Christian Lebanese), or Poles, they will have different traditions to the ones in the English-speaking world. Heck, even us Danes, who are relatively close to England in terms of cultural background, have different traditions. Like, we dance and sing around the tree holding each other's hands in a circle like we used to do when singing very long songs about the exploits of heroes with various degrees of moral reprehensibility. I think they still do that in the Faroe Islands outside of Christmas. We also eat different stuff. Also, the celebration of the birth of Christ was always going to be a thing; it was just handy to incorporate into celebrations that were already there.

Queen Boomer is correct. Christmas - and Easter - were Pagan festivals (Midwinter Solstice on 21st Dec and Spring Equinox) that were appropriated by early Christians. The Holly, Ivy and Mistletoe were sacred to Pagans, as symbols of life growing in winter and symbiotic releationships between humans and Earth. The Yule Log was a Scandinavian tradition and Yule was the name for a Winter Solstice celebration. I think Christmas Trees became popular after Queen Victoria was gifted a huge tree from Sweden or Norway and the public copied the idea and it became a tradition. PS Poppers are something that were used in the 80's in clubs and in the bedroom, aka amyl nitrate. The things we pull apart at Christmas and that make a bang and contain a paper hat, a small novelty item and a bad joke are called Crackers.

The one thing QB was wrong about was that Christians didn't hijack Pagan traditions simply because they enjoyed them, they hijacked them to make them go away, long after Christianity had spread to Celtic, Germanic and Nordic lands the people of those lands still celebrated their own solstices and the church didn't like people following non-Christian practices so they created the myth that Jesus was born on the Midwinter Solstice and renamed it Christmas. Then they created the myth that Jesus returned to life on the Spring Equinox and renamed it Easter.

Wtf are you even talking about? How can you say CHRISTmas was appropriated by CHRISTIANS? It's literally named after Christ and celebrates his birth. Why would Pagans be celebrating the birth of Christ hundreds of years before he was even born? Pagans were the ones who converted to Christianity and started celebrating Christmas, then merged it with their own Pagan holidays like Yule.

Queen is right. In Sweden it is still called "Jul" - Christmas Eve is "Julafton" Christmas day is "Juldagen". "Julen" was before Christmas. Since the "Norse Gods - Nordic Mythology - Asa-Tro" was very strong in Sweden and I think also the other Nordic countries. Christianity never "took over" JULEN. The tree is much older than that. People up north were afraid of a permanent winter - so they took in a tree - to "save it" from the cold so it can inspire nature again in spring or something.

SANTA CLAUSE Inspired by St. Nicholas, this Christmas tradition has Christian roots, rather than pagan ones. Born in southern Turkey around 280 A.D, he was a bishop in the early Christian church and suffered persecution and imprisonment for his faith. Coming from a wealthy family, he was renowned for his generosity towards the poor and disenfranchised. The legends surrounding him abound, but the most famous is how he saved three daughters from being sold into slavery. There was no dowry to entice a man to marry them, so it was their father’s last resort. St. Nicholas is said to have tossed gold through an open window into the home, thus saving them from their fate. Legend has it that the gold landed in a sock drying by the fire, so children started hanging stockings by their fires in hopes St. Nicholas would toss gifts into them. In honor of his passing, December 6th was declared St. Nicholas day. As time went on, each European culture adapted versions of St. Nicholas. In Swiss and German cultures, Christkind or Kris Kringle (Christ child) accompanied St. Nicholas to deliver presents to well-behaved children. Jultomten was a happy elf delivering gifts via a sleigh drawn by goats in Sweden. Then there was Father Christmas in England and Pere Noel in France. In the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Lorraine, France, and parts of Germany, he was known as Sinter Klaas. (Klaas, for the record, is a shortened version of the name Nicholas). This is where the Americanized Santa Claus comes from. 280 A.D WAS 1742 years ago

American shows hit different cause most seasons starts in the fall and carries over into around March so any christmas episode is just part & parcel of the season, just like 2 episodes before is usually thanksgiving and the one after is new year. But in the UK we have our usual 6 episodes and then we get a christmas special that airs a couple of days before, during or after christmas... with individual series they aren't always include and might just come in a 'special episodes collection' as opposed to being part of the season, but they tend to be included in a complete series box set at least (I just learned my psychoville blu ray set includes the halloween special so I don't have to order it separately)

NEVER Question the Queen. She is right, The Christians knew they could not stop the holiday so they rebranded it as a Christian holiday but it was indeed a pagan celebration. Also Queen Boomer was referring to Christmas Crackers, you basically pull one end each and the tube snaps, the one with bigger end gets what is inside which is usually a crappy dad joke on paper, a paper crown (signifying one of the wise men) and a toy. The cracker itself has a strip of paper inside with a small amount of gunpowder, designed to make a crack when broken.

The queen is correct about the paigan side of Christmas because the Romans integrated many paigan holidays into their own to assimilate other coultures

Plum - euphemism for testicle. There are very few actual concepts in native English, just excess alcohol consumption, body parts & bodily functions - You just have to figure out which is most closely related to the word you heard.

I have had Jewish friends who have sent me Christmas Cards and I have sent them Christmas Cards and Happy New Year cards we have joked about it and we all agree you have got to be grown up about it, and up goes the tree with coloured lights on Lametta Tinsel and everyone gets tipsy and then falls asleep after the Queens Christmas Address, last year and this year that will sadly be missing after sixty nine years.

36:28 Christmas doesn't need or have to be about religion. The vast majority of people in the UK aren't Christians or religious, but we enjoy and like to celebrate Christmas as just a happy holiday and time of the year; family's getting together, the giving of gifts and general good will to all men (and women) 😊

@@4Kandlez Just common sense. Maybe 'vast' majority was an exaggeration, but majority is accurate, and yes, I looked it up; so it's still safe to say most (as in the majority) of UK citizens, are not Christians.

British pubs are often a social meeting point for a hour much like you might friends for coffee. Most pubs have a great soft drink menu and mocktails are very common. In London also look up rooftop bars, great if you have nice weather and amazing views over the city.

yes she is right, its a pagan holiday, all christian holidays come from pagans/vikings. They set trees of fire is not totally right, vikings would cut down one treee that would burn for about 12 days in total. they would carve images into it of the gods etc and sit around it telling stories and having fun. Decorating the tree also came from vikings who would hang carvings of norse gods on the tree.

Previous posters are correct, a pagan festival that was hijacked by Christians became 'Christmas'. The original Christian festival, if there were one, would probably have been in October. Even Japan, which is mostly Buddhist and Shinto celebrates Christmas. Perhaps it should be called Commercialmas.
