The festive season is upon us once more and, of course, that means The Box of Delights will be getting its yearly airing for countless fans of vintage British television. And 2024 marks 40 years since The Box of Delights was first aired by BBC1 on 21st November 1984. To celebrate this landmark anniversary, and sweeten the pill that we're all 40 years older, Philip W. Errington has brought us an updated version of his book Opening the Box of Delights.
