To restore the village blacksmith’s forge, the team must make bricks for the chimney, a process that takes 5 days and sleepless nights. As Christmas nears, they source a yule log: firewood to burn for the 12 days of Christmas. It’s also a chance to begin preparations for the Christmas banquet in earnest-in particular, a very Victorian invention: Christmas crackers.
