Radio Mistletoe…

For those who missed the Mistletoe-themed BBC R4 programme on Christmas Day, it’s available on BBC iPlayer here (edited 28th Dec to add correct link):

Covering the Mistletoe Festival in Tenbury Wells, the Druid procession, mistletoe harvesting, and general mistletoe, er, stuff in apple orchards.  For those who want to listen again on the proper radio, or who can’t use iPlayer ‘cos they’re in the wrong country, it is being re-broadcast on Thursday 30th at 1500hrs GMT and should be listenable everywhere..  More info on the BBC pages here.

And, for balance, another link to the recent US NPR broadcast of mistletoe harvesting in Tennessee:
