    Lando Norris' first F1 World Drivers' Championship win / Wig requirement dropped for some UK courts / Under-16s social media ban kicks-off in Australia / Hong Kong’s Taoist festivals

    On Friday's programme, we talked about McLaren's Lando Norris' first F1 World Drivers' Championship win. A former racing driver discussed the significance of Norris becoming Britain's first world champion since Lewis Hamilton.

    We then turned our attention to the courtroom, where barristers in the UK have won the right to ditch a traditional headpiece: the wig.

     

    After the break, we took a closer look at how people are coping with the world's first social media ban that was earlier implemented in Australia, targeting under 16s.

    And finally, we concluded the show by talking to a historian about a once-in-a-decade Taoist festival to ward off angry spirits.

    The meaning of Christmas / SPCA's dog walking event / AIA Carnival

    主持人:Tony Sabine and Danny Gittings

    On this Christmas holiday programme, we’re delving into the origins of Christmas. Observed on this very day by around one third of the global population, Christmas remains one of the world’s most celebrated holidays.

    Initially observed among Christians, the festival has — over the years  — taken an increasingly secular dimension, with people of different faiths  celebrating in their own way. We’ll speak to some experts and find out what makes Christmas so special, and how people in this part of the world mark the occasion. 

    At 9:30, we learn more from the SPCA’s holiday dog walking events. 

    And at 9:45, we speak to the organisers of the AIA Carnival.

    9:05am-9:30am: The meaning of Christmas
    9:05am-9:30am: Fr James Rooney, Assistant Professor at the Department of Religion and Philosophy, Hong Kong Baptist University
