December 2026 Project Preview
After last year’s mammoth project about the development of Christmas magazines from 1896 – 2025, which can be found in all their glory at this link, https://davidgpearce205.blog/category/2025/christmas-magazines/page/2/ I am back with a new project for December 2026!
I will be using four researched articles to trace the development of the television Christmas advert from the 1950s to today. As usual I will be combining popular culture, social history and personal memories to tell the story of perhaps the most influential Christmas media of all. It’s going to need a lot of preparation but I think it’ll be well worth it. Hopefully you will find it interesting to read and that you enjoy watching some Christmas classics. Let me know if you’re looking forward to it below 😂 (only joking)!

Many thanks John. It’s becoming a Christmas tradition 🤣 I’ve already found out some interesting avenues. It occurred to me that one of my blog posts like this could be a wildcard for the lesson on whether something is academic or not.

Yes, well I prefer not having to check the citations and whether you have misrepresented anything (if it’s all the same to you)? Ha ha!
