It's the last of the dangerously 'as live' Christmas podcasts, and the usual reprobates, Nick 'Santa' Briggs, David 'Tinsel' Richardson and Paul 'Elf' Spragg are once again back on the mics. They're joined today by that bastion of Big Finish Alan Barnes, script editor and writer extraordinaire, and Ken Bentley, director and man of many voices.

The items on today's agenda are thoughts on the festive season, looking back on those who've made Big Finish what it is over the course of 2012, a round of heartfelt thanks from Nick, the results of the long-forgotten October competition and a selection of fine, festive cheery messages from you, our invaluable listeners!

Also, as you might be able to tell from the picture, there are lounge pants - and Paul is in them. Download or stream the podcast now!

We'll be back with more ridiculous podcasts in 2013, so if you've got anything you'd like to ask us, drop us a line on [email protected]. A merry Christmas and a happy new year from everyone at Big Finish!
