Educating Ellie
This song originates from Peebles, a small town on the Border of England and Scotland, where local residents mistook a science experiment for UFOs. Instead of aliens trying to land, the lights were flying lanterns carrying letters to Santa which had been set off by local man Iain Weir in an attempt to educate his daughter Ellie.
Thanks to the 1,200 or so people who took part in the shows this Yuletide Festive series. We’ll have more shows in 2009. You can also follow @riseandshinetv on Twitter for updates.
