Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSister Monica Joan mentions Saint Eustace. According to tradition, he was a Roman general under Emperor Trajan who saw a vision of a crucifix between the antlers of a stag he was hunting. This led to his conversion to Christianity, his persecution, and ultimately his martyrdom in 118 AD.
- GoofsFrequently the name Santa is used; however in this era in England he would have been referred to as Father Christmas. It was also more common to say Happy Christmas as opposed to Merry Christmas.
- Quotes
Sister Hilda: Call me stickler for the Scriptures, I don't recall any reindeer in Bethlehem.
Sister Monica Joan: You can't be certain. Saint Eustace himself had a vision of Christ between the antlers of a stag, white as snow. And there were mystics who believed our Lord himself appeared to men in such a form.

Strange timing
Leaving town at the holidays with short notice, again? This would be a great story to a series; not the Christmas Special. And Sister Mildred is just about the most annoying person. She speaks in blustering sentences and can't read a room. She steps all over people and demands her way when she has no idea what's going on.
