People on the street: Christmas abroad?

Today we went out into Manchester to ask people where they would want to go for Christmas if they could travel anywhere in the world.

00:00Hi I'm Theo, and this is People on the Street. Today I'm out asking people about Christmas.

00:04Now everyone loves a good traditional Christmas. You can cuddle up under blankets,

00:08watch your favourite Christmas film. I think mine's The Holiday, by the way, just if you're asking.

00:14But there's also some people who love the idea of going on holiday for their holidays,

00:17so we want to know where and why.

00:20Yeah, it's a lot of messing around going abroad at Christmas time for me.

00:23Yeah.

00:24So there's enough stress as it is, so.

00:25Barbados.

00:26Yeah, why is that?

00:27Because I was born in Barbados, so and I've been here like,

00:32I came here when I was seven, I'm now 73, you know, so I've been here a long time.

00:37And I've never, apart from the seven years I had in Barbados,

00:41I've never had a Christmas in Barbados. So if I was fortunate enough to get money,

00:47I'd go to Barbados.

00:50Maybe Australia, because it's hot. I do think that Christmas should be a cold occasion,

00:56but if I was going to go on holiday, maybe Australia because it's warm there right now.
