S03E10 - The judgement of man

• i can just see him going absolutely ham on this one. he’d love it. the whole pub would be up and singing and you know it. screams the ITS CHRIIIIIIIISTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS because in father brown we trust. 

• a cute kinda traditional classic. mrs m would be so nervous but everyone’s 100% behind her and singing along and by the end shes properly into it. bonus if she does that cute shy smile at the end love u mrs m. 

• felicia is the MAIN CHARACTER. and she KNOWS IT. you best believe that woman has the voice of an angel and she BELTS this bad boy out. its a classic for a reason but especially when in felicia’s hands. she is there to PERFORM. probably wins a bottle of free champagne for the sheer excellence tbh 

• these two are doing a DUET. and i mean a DUET. we’re having dance moves, the singing, everything. the slurring would probably be authentic. sid nearly falls in the fire. christmas trees are at risk of demolition in the process. but it would be great. sid would sing kirsty’s bit and bunty would sing shane macgowan’s. a moment of true mlm and wlw solidarity. 

• the only difference is flambeau isnt a COWARD and so does not change the lyrics to santa ‘buddy’ oh no. everyone is SHAKEN at this performance he’s flirting with literally everyone in the room while he’s singing this and some people are loving it others are hating it but everyone is at least in awe of the fact its a v good show. he’s an annoyingly good singer as well ppl are literally fainting 

• at first valentine is pretty reserved and has to be dragged on stage bc he’s insisting on wearing one of those bah humbug scrooge black santa hats… but once he’s up on stage he’s off. he accepts that this one fits his gruff vibe best and eventually doesn’t mind wearing a normal santa hat while everyone screams about the magic of christmas. he’s surprisingly good at keeping in time too bc this song is weirdly fast but he’s all over it tbh. 

• is there a song that embodies gay christmas yearning more than last christmas???? is there a man who could embody gay christmas yearning better than sullivan??? i think not. its a v emotional performance and like,,, everyones lowkey crying and singing along at the end. gets a genuine round of applause bc he’s good but shy 

• my boy mallory is SO out of tune but like… pure gold. he hits every note as loudly as he can, he’s probably fully dressed up as that white beard wizzard guy in the video…. definitely gets out a plastic saxophone for the solo in the middle. all round iconic tbh, although will claim absolutely none of it happened the next day

• the ENTHUSIASM that goodfellow would radiate while singing this song,,,,, its making me tear up truly. what a lovely man goodfellow is. he’s in a proper chirstmas jumper, he’s wearing reindeer antlers, he’s got tinsel round his neck and this would be the song of the night tbvh. this is the one every goes home singing and dancing to.
