Merry Xmas Everybody

The perennial stompalong party hit by Slade, as much a part of a British Christmas as plum duff and Charles Dickens. If you don't know the song, and Noddy Holder's famous holler over the fade out, here it is, from and old Top of the Pops. Jones is doing the bit at 3.30. And, yes, they are miming to the record.

In the clip the odd looking man in the Santa suit is Jimmy Saville, DJ and national treasure, who died a month ago.
