Episode 9 of SHOW & TELL is another epic that ballooned way out of control and it's a Xmas special! You lucky, lucky people. So get comfy on Santa's lap and prepare to be amazed....
Stephen will be getting uncharacteristically Christmassy as he takes a look at some of his favourite festive photos from famous photographers and also some from people you might never have heard of. There's going to be mince pies, large white beards, crying exhausted children, plucked turkeys, snow galore, even a darts player and the story behind what once was the world's largest record shop.
As ever it's full of digressions and bad jokes but I promise you its worth watching, far better than most of the crap on TV. There's even an actual live reindeer sacrifice in the studio at the end, so be sure to watch all the way through.
Please subscribe to the channel and Stephen will continue doing these films as he seeks to focus on photography content and not just which new or old camera to buy. And remember, there's still a 'No BOKEH TALK' promise. No bokeh talk. Ever.
For more of Stephen's photography please visit his website: www.stephenleslie.co.uk/ or his Instagram: / step_hen_le. . or sign up for the mailing list for his new book, MOSTLY FALSE REPORTS: tinyurl.com/6uyy3vsf
Also feel free to contact him if you'd like to buy zines, prints or sign up for his monthly street photography workshops in London. Thank you.

I think this is my favourite so far Stephen, which is a big compliment considering the quality of the videos you've released so far. Your channel has been the highlight of the year for me photographically, it's teaching me the history of the medium and also to look deeper into my own work, and what I do in the future. Also I am super glad of the photo I chose of the HMV building before this video even came out. Happy Xmas mate and can't wait for more, and the new book! P.S. The print looks amazing, I only opened it now as I wanted to watch the video before I opened it. Into the framers in January ;)

25:35 wow! What an amazing image! It is almost ‘timeless’ - the bowler hat and long coat, and the almost ‘classic’ shape of the London cab, coupled the with HMV imagery, could have been from the 1950’s! It takes a careful study to see that it is contemporary. Stunning. We are in London for Christmas as a family (my wife and kids came from Cape Town, and I flew in from Berlin when I am working on a research project), we walked past this very spot earlier in the week! Thanks Stephen. Another excellent episode. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I absolutely love this! I had the HMV Nipper Sign redesigned for the logo for my company back in 2016: DogTimes Productions. It’s more of a re-invention and modified for film production, but it’s basically a dog with a cone on its head looking at a blank movie projector screen. 🙌🏼 Excellent work as always, Stephen!

yet another great edition of Show and Tell. I suspected that Gilden's drunken Santa would be in this episode and it was but you added so much more in the way of drunken Santas. But you may appreciate this, so few do, but I suspect that you will, the origins of Santa Clause may have come from Sami Reindeer Herders drinking urine. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g9FzhpyWtb3ZfIk.html Its from the BBC so it must be credible, unlike things you find on the internet. Thanks again for giving us so much pleasure in your musings and selfishly I want it to go on, you and your huge production team bring it all home.
