The Twelve Days of Christmas: Day Ten - Boxing Day
We all know why Christmas Day is called thus. You'd have to be an utter idiot not to. But even clever folk are stumped about Boxing Day. Is it named after the sport? Boxes? Geometry? Who knows? Well. Douglas does and he's about to blow Hugh's - and your mind. Discover the origins of Boxing Day, why Queen Victoria was an excellent prize fighter, and whether or not Hugh is allowed back in the house after the whole "Holly" incident... ------- History for You with Douglas and Hugh is a comedy podcast about history written, performed and produced by Adrian Mackinder and James Devonshire, with music by Mike Jones.
