[00:00:00] PROGRAMME PROMOTION: for Magic Night.

The Best of Tommy Cooper, Paul Zenon’s Tricky Christmas and David Blaine’s Street Magic – all feature in this special theme night – starting at 9pm on Thursday on Channel 4.

We’re not certain but we think that might be Matt King.

[00:00:41] IDENT: one of the standard Channel 4 idents – Purple – is used to link into Ali G’s Christmas Message to the Nation.

This was one of those years where Channel 4 didn’t bother with Christmas idents.

[00:00:55] PROGRAMME: the first minute or so of Ali G’s Christmas Message to the Nation.
