A very merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

A Very Merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

'Tis just weeks before Christmas, and here at Cheltenham Festivals we're beginning to feel distinctly, well, Festive! To celebrate this jolliest of seasons we asked the stars of this year's Literature Festival to share with us a special Christmas Memory.

Every day of advent we'll be unwrapping a different Christmas Memory for your delight and delectation. And as an extra-special treat, every Festive-Friday we'll be hearing from our Festival Directors and giving away Festive-al prizes galore!

So sit back, grab a mince pie and unwrap a very special Festive-al memory...

3rd December: The most Wonder-ful time of the year...

It's the third day of Advent, and we've come over all scientific.

Today's Festive-al prize is simply out of this world - a copy of The Wonders of the Solar System book by the brilliant Professor Brian Cox. To be in with a chance of winning this beautiful book and a festival goody bag just identify our mystery star.

Today's star is a really stand-up guy, determined to bring the funny side of science to the masses.


We asked him why Cheltenham Science Festival is so bloomin' important, press play to hear his answer...

3rd Dec - who said that? by Cheltenham Festivals

The competition is now closed.

UPDATE: the mystery festive-al star was... Robin Ince! Listen to the full interview from Science 2011 here:
