Mr Huffam - Christmas Story by Hugh Walpole

- čas přidán 9. 09. 2024
- In 1933, Hugh wrote a wonderfully enchanting short story called “Mr Huffam, A Christmas Story”, a superb Christmas page turner that keeps you guessing throughout who will be revealed as the real person behind the mysterious guest who seems to have come from Christmas past.
Although Mr Huffam was written in 1933, it was only privately printed in 1935 by the Roger Williams Company in a limited run of 600 for the seasons festivities and featured beautiful illustrations by Corydon Bell, a well known American writer and illustrator of children’s books.

What a wonderful story. Despite being a sixty-year old man, I'm not ashamed to admit my eyes are damp (as, perhaps, were those of Mr Shuckburgh). Have a very Merry Christmas, in the tradition of 'Mr Huffam'!

Your videos are just amazing.
Just discovered your channel. Absolutely fantastic videos and now a subscriber. Look forward to watching more.
I hope you are ok Robin as it's been very quiet on here without your explorer videos
Yes, I was thinking the same.
Does anyone know how to play any of these games?!? I have only heard of Blind Man's B(l)uff.
Perhaps it's a result of everything being instantaneous due to the internet; but, fifty minutes given to one story seems to be dragging it out far too long. Two stories could have been told or even three.
I like this show and the narrator's voice is the reason; but, I must admit I had become tired of this story long before the 50 minutes were done.
Please don't take offense; because, that is not my intent; but, giving us two or even three stories in a fifty minute time slot would be better.
3,400 viewers enjoyed this.
Contemplate that in St. Augustine this Christmas Day.
@@Tuppence1 And I'm happy for them. I don't live very far from St. Augustine, the oldest, continuously inhabited city in the US. I visit St. Augustine regularly; still, fifty-two minutes for one lightly amusing story was too long. A more riveting story perhaps would have keit me on the edge of my seat; but, I found my mind wondering on several occasions.
A person SHOULD be able to politely express their opinion without people taking offense.
We told shorter stories in last years Christmas readings so decided to mix it up this year. Not for everyone though I suppose. Happy Christmas!
