Yule Be Sorry

Yule Be Sorry is the Christmas-themed fifteenth episode of series 2 of Victor and Hugo. It first aired on 18 December 1992, a week before Christmas. The brothers pose as Santa Claus (with Victor standing on top of Hugo) on the streets of New York City to steal everyone's presents; however, it is July, so they steal a voice-activated jet to pour fake snow over the city. When they crash-land at the North Pole, they meet the real Santa, who hands them a card saying that he is not really Santa - and when he unzips his suit, he turns out to be a polar bear, who hands the brothers another card saying that he is not really a polar bear. When he unzips his suit, he turns out to be none other than the Wretched Dog (who runs up Victor's trouser leg and steals his boxer shorts).
