Good heavens, the heady excitement of living in Cambridge (even only two days a week). It appears that popular beat combo The Damned are to turn on our Christmas Lights this year and the assorted Reverends of our fair city are none too impressed...

Seems like they're going for a bit of a The Nightmare Before Christmas vibe. Fun!

"Oh, you mean Eloise was a cover?"

Yup. Original by Barry Ryan in 1968. It has to be heard to be believed, I think. Ryan seemed to think he was destined to be the next Johnny Ray.

Not impressed?

Perhaps they should ask the MD's of Boots or Argos or bloody Asda instead.
