If Kris Kringle himself stood among this lineup of rigorously trained substitute Santas, you'd never know it. These certified Saint Nicks have done their ho-ho-homework. They're students of the Ministry of Fun Santa School – each year the Ministry of Fun trains dozens of 'Father Christmases' (as Santa Claus is popularly known). Skilled in the art of helping Santa to be in many places at once, Santa School graduates will soon be in demand at department stores across jolly England.
