Kenton and Jolene are concerned about the lack of customers at The Bull with Christmas just around the corner. Mick suggests that they could do a Santa brunch. Kenton reckons it鈥檚 a good idea but it鈥檚 too late to find a Father Christmas in time. Mick solves the problem by putting himself forward and they decide to do a brunch next Sunday. Although it鈥檒l be tight, they can advertise and Wayne鈥檚 had some ideas for the menu. When Jolene says it鈥檚 kind of Mick to be Santa for nothing, Kenton points out that his van is parked on the car park. Mick fits the part when he reappears in a Santa outfit that he's borrowed from Tony. But when he tries out his Santa voice, Jolene and Kenton are stunned. When he鈥檚 gone they wonder what to do; Mick鈥檚 Santa sounds really scary but neither of them want to let Mick down.
