A real treat for Christmas fans as BBC1 really pulled out the stops for its 1982 Christmas Day startup. The sequence begins with a rousing "Joy to the World" followed by a holding slide-type rundown of the morning's programmes and then two verses of "O Come All Ye Faithful" before an introduction to the first programme of Christmas morning – The All-New Pink Panther Show.
