As I said in the previous post, this year’s Corps Carol Service will be a “virtual” one – you can watch it from 6pm on the Boscombe Corps YouTube Channel.
To help you get in the mood I have another old video rescued from a VHS tape. This is from the previous year (1991) to the one I shared in the last post and is the start of the Carol Service (well not quite the start as the first few bars are missing)
An opportunity for you all to sing along 😂😂
Good King Wenceslas

Love watching old videos!
George R McConnell
There were quite a few ‘interesting’ performances that year 😂
Jonathan Searle
George R McConnell put them all on!!! Hahahaha
George R McConnell
Might have a few more – one of the most interesting facts is that it turns out that Good King Wenceslas was actually also one of the three wise men!! 😂😱
George R McConnell
Not sure that anyone would want to sit through the whole song (and we did it all the way through TWICE!!) but this bit of unrehearsed choral singing from the Band is brilliant – just wait for the gold rings
Five Gold Rings!
Joy Lawrence
George R McConnell think that was the year of the Von Lawrence family’s rendition of starry night?!?
Rachel Wood
George R McConnell awww these make me happy and sad. Lovely to see though

Can’t find the Von Lawrence’s – must have been a different year I think
Joy Lawrence
George R McConnell phew!!
Jane Alton
Great! Who was singing? Anyone we’d know?
George R McConnell
You would certainly know them – perhaps it should be a Christmas competition to see if anyone can guess 😁
Jane Alton

Jane Alton
