Subject: RE: Now that's UK worst Christmas No 1 EVER!
Well it is Christmas, you'd expect some turkeys. A whole flock of turkeys in fact. But picking "worst of" is to my mind a lot less interesting than "best of".   And while I agree that Fairytale of New York is perhaps the best Christmas record ever, it never made it to that disconcerting list.

However one outstandingly good record that did make it to Number One is the 1983 version of "Only You" by the Flying Pickets.
