One of the best parts of Christmas in the nostalgia, looking back on the festive times from days gone by - and we've raked the archives for you.

Among the gallery are some images from the Simpson Maternity Pavilion Christmas party back in 1985, to an appearance from a questionable looking Santa in Edinburgh a few years earlier, and more recent moments like the Great Scottish Santa Run in 2006.
