These days it’s hard to imagine an English Christmas without the presence of a German market. Turns out, however, that English markets may be getting pretty popular with the Germans too. Meet Angelica Eichel and Hans-Peter Osterhagen as they explain why they love to spend their Christmas at English markets (shout out to Ridley Road in Hackney, east London), and talk us through their favourite purchases: “Three lighters …one really big lighter … Lindsay Lohan phone cover, und some Rizlas.” We like to imagine that English traders will be exporting their own brand of festive spirit to Germany sometime soon.
