That was my initial idea for the Holiday Classics Meme! Problematic thing: it’s not really a holiday thing (I guess… I’m not very familiar with the ‘holiday’ definition). It’s a german cult classic which is aired every New Year’s Eve… multiple times in many adaptions (one involves a humanoid talking bread, a bush and a sheep… Don’t ask). It’s an english skit originally, but I don’t think it’s popular outside of Germany.
Dinner for one
Ms. Sophie (played by an aged up Natasha Una) celebrates her 90th birthday with her closest friends. Unfortunatly they are all already dead, so her loyal butler James (John Mole) is doing his best to let her relive the good old times. She enjoys a five course dinner with her imaginary friends and James is advised to toast her before every meal in place of her dead friends. There are five meals and four toast per meals, so it gets wacky soon. James also has a little feud going on with the tiger fur on the ground- he tends to trip over it. It’s really wacky and funny and very beloved in my country.
I’m not sure if I can put it in the ‘Holiday Classics Meme’… Ah, heck, I’m doing it. If it doesn’t fit, it won’t be reblogged. Also, I’m sorry for the wall of text…
Happy 2018, guys! (One day I’ll take a new New Year’s Eve picture)
