The greatest story ever told. Or at least the start of it. From angels to murderers, sheep to gold not to mention God becomming a human baby, this famous story's got everything but can you remember the right order.
In five short pieces for Christmas, we follow the main characters of the story – Jesus, Mary, Joseph, shepherds and angels, and the wise men – as seen in an Eastern icon of the Nativity. Christmas is so often sentimentalised and made sugary sweet, with cute angels and gurgling babies. We chose this icon, with its unusual take on the Christmas story, to make us take a fresh look at the story of Jesus' birth. Click the pictures below to follow the story of one of the Nativity characters.
A new film, out in time for Christmas, tells The Nativity Story, the story of the birth of Jesus. Using images from the film, and the original text of the Bible, we tell the story of Jesus' birth in eight short episodes.
Enjoy a carol service in the comfort of your own computer screen with a choice of 10 karaoke carols. We provide the music and words, you provide the voice. All the favourites are here: Silent Night, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, Away in a Manger, O Come all ye Faithful, and more.
How can one old man hand-deliver presents to 2 billion children in one evening? How can the white-bearded one be here when we just saw him round the corner in his grotto in the shopping centre? Why is 'Santa' an anagram of 'Satan'?
You may have pitted your wits against the Spanish Inquisition in our regular pub quiz – this Christmas we invite you to stamp the snow off your shoes, grab an Eggnog by the fire and put your Yuletide knowledge to the test.
