                    Thanks for that, hopefully it narrows things down.

                    The Christmas period used to be a good time for one-off cartoons, not always festive themed but always welcome, things like Banjo The Cat, Lyle The Crocodile, & The California Raisins animation Channel 4 seemed to show at every holiday for a few years.
