Ho ho ho! Welcome to a special festive episode of "London Asked and Answered," where we're donning our Santa hats and jingling all the way through the vibrant and merry Christmas markets of London. Join your host, Sascha, on a magical sleigh ride across the city, exploring the twinkling lights, festive cheer, and unique holiday experiences each market has to offer.
In this episode, we're starting our journey with a cup of steaming mulled wine at the famous Winter Wonderland, where the holiday spirit is as infectious as the twinkling lights. We'll weave through the historic charm of the Hampton Court Palace Festive Fayre, sharing a laugh about Henry VIII’s notorious appetite, and then take a turn through the enchanting lights of Christmas at Kew.
Ever wondered what a Bavarian Christmas feels like in the heart of Kingston? We've got you covered! We'll also explore the cozy and intimate Paternoster Square market, set against the magnificent backdrop of St. Paul's Cathedral, and dive into the eclectic and creative world of the Christmas Independent Ceramics Market in Shoreditch.
But that's not all! From the festive fairy tale of Covent Garden to the Finnish Church Christmas Market, where you can experience a slice of Santa's homeland, we're unwrapping the festive secrets of each location. We'll even take a stroll along the Southbank, where Christmas lights and riverside charm meet in a winter utopia.
So, grab your favorite Christmas jumper, hot cocoa (or a mulled wine!), and settle in for an episode filled with festive fun, laughter, and a sprinkle of London's Christmas magic. And don't forget, if you've got questions about London or want to share your favorite festive spot in the city, send them in for our upcoming Q&A episode!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
