What happened when Dom Mintoff accompanied then Speaker Lawrence Gonzi to a street market in Chile in the early 1990s? Who was the politician first mistaken for Father Christmas and later demoted to his brother? And what was the most extravagant demand made on a politician during a house visit?

Former EU Commissioner Tonio Borg and Education Minister Evarist Bartolo were the guests during a special Christmas edition of Times Talk which dealt with the funny side of politics.

Times Talk will return with another live edition on TVM on January 6. We wish all our viewers a Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year.
