The Sooty Show - Sooty's Christmas Party (aka The Sooty Christmas Show)

It is Christmas Day and everything is going very well. Sooty, Sweep and Soo have great presents and the lunch time Christmas party is a great success. After a long snooze on the sofa, Matthew starts tidying up after the party. He is surprised to see Sooty, Sweep and Soo's presents stuffed behind the sofa cushions. Sooty, Sweep and Soo are now playing with the wrapping and boxes of their presents to play at being space adventurers. As Matthew sets the table for Christmas dinner, Soo and Sooty are trying to make Sweep let Soo give him a little Christmas kiss under the mistletoe in the bathroom. After all the food they have had at the party, the gang do not have the appetite for Christmas dinner, that is until after and squirting from Matthew's new water pistol and a dunking in the trifle. Before bedtime, Matthew reads Sooty a story about Father Christmas and remember a time they once thought they met him with one of his pixies in the middle of the previous summer: However Father Christmas and his pixie, Sandra were actually the Battersea Burglars for the Birmingham Broque in disguise and Sherlock Sooty set a trap for them so that they could get caught by the police. Sooty asks Matthew how long it will be until the following Christmas and the gang finish their Merry Christmas Day with a song about how it will be 364 days until next Christmas comes around again.

I’m 34 years old and still to this day when I think about how many days are in a year I think of the song at 19:03 😂

[@danielw313]

Same.

I love the sooty show as a kid, I like this one, especially when they were putting their faces in the cream pies 😂😂

[@guyparham575]

Soo has got a lovely singing voice very clearly panda

[@sn4rff]

i'm freakin' drowning in nostalgia here - thanks so much for posting this.

[@Andrew53670]

That part where Soo says Sweep cant kiss Sooty is so interesting since despite having child audience, stuff like that is never allowed to be said on TV these days, some people would agree and some will not

[@jacobburtonswfc]

If that was now it would probably be on the news

[@grahampearson5670]

364 days until Christmas comes again should have been on CD.

[@jacobburtonswfc]

I'd have it on my Xmas USB stick

OMG the Policeman at 15:39-15:41 is just hilarious.

Father Christmas and Sandra in reality the Battersea Burglars of the Birmingham Broque are thwarted by Sooty and subsequently arrested and remanded in custody by the police.

I'm very surprised. I didn't know the Sooty knew how to play Away In A Manger on the xylophone.

The earlier incarnation of Sooty was very musical. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r364lniqiJqoicU

I bought a Sooty toy for my nephew for Christmas.

[@mosquitor81]

9:00 Soo is so homophobic! 😂 I hadn't realized before I saw the credits that the actor playing 'Father Christmas' in this is Roger Walker, who was part of 'Rod, Jane & Roger' in Rainbow a decade previous, before he was replaced by Freddy Marks. He's in a few other episodes of Sooty as well!

The song played over the closing credits is legend and catchy.

9:01 one of the most outtdated and surprising things I've ever heard on children's television. How did that make it into the script "No you can't kiss Sooty Sweep. He's a boy and so are you."

[@bunchberry9957]

Weird when you think there was no LGBT awareness back then. There was even no autism awareness either. I don't think it was until the 00s where both of these had mainstream attention and support.

[@jacobburtonswfc]

The outcry that would cause now!

Things were better back then.
