Now in Audible’s Top 100 for Christmas

A funny, warm and nostalgic 1980s Christmas adventure—written and narrated by the author.

Step back into the decade of Top of the Pops, Smash Hits, Woolworths, mixtapes… and waiting two weeks for your photos from Boots.

Tash and her brother Jamie never meant to time-travel back to October 1984. But that’s exactly where they land—on the day Bob Geldof was supposed to see the BBC report that inspired Band Aid.

Except now… he doesn’t.

Meaning:
No Band Aid.
No USA for Africa.
No Live Aid.
No history as we know it.

Jamie is determined to track Bob down and put things right.
Tash just wants to get home—her five-month-old baby is waiting for her.

What would YOU do? Return to your child… or stay and help save a million others?

Warm, witty, nostalgic and full of heart, Do They Know It’s Christmas Yet? is a feel-good, time-twisting festive comedy set against the soundtrack of a decade that defined a generation.

About the author:
James Crookes has spent 20+ years writing comedy for TV and radio (BBC One, CBBC, CBeebies) and co-presents the Bauer Radio breakfast show Big John @ Breakfast.
This audiobook is read by the author.

Content note:
Tash is lovely… but she does drop the occasional F-word when pushed. If you’re listening with little ears in the car, you may want to keep that in mind.

Perfect for fans of nostalgic British Christmas stories—and for anyone who remembers the 80s.
