Spinning Jenny is a band from Ohio that is made up of three sisters. Here, they give a performance of "Christmas All Over Again" by Tom Petty for a charity event.

Sigrid introduces passive causative constructions, which combine causal verbs and the passive voice. We use them all the time in everyday conversation when we focus on the object rather than the subject.

Even though her sister still doesn't trust her, Jennifer's got thing more or less under control. The next day, she has all the children’s lunches ready in time for school, gives Flo an early birthday present, and makes a deal with Alice, who’s pushing the boundaries with her mom away.

Chamonix and Luke start decorating the Christmas tree. When Uncle Lou arrives he’s surprised to find Claire at the house, and more surprised to hear she’s been out on the lake! Claire discovers why Luke knows all about ice skates, and when he drops her back at the clinic, she finds out more about his past.

Jasmin reveals some Christmas traditions in the UK, including exactly which day they celebrate, and more importantly, what’s on the Christmas menu!

Rosie and Alex are best friends, but get separated when Alex moves from Dublin to America. Can their friendship survive? And will they acknowledge their feelings for one another?

Jennifer drops her niece off at soccer practice and notices that she’s being bullied by other girls. When bringing the kids home, she meets Will again and has another nice chat with him. That evening, Jennifer’s cooking talents come under scrutiny when she prepares her first dinner for the kids.

Luke can’t believe his eyes when he sees Claire skating on thin ice out on the lake. It’s lucky he’s there to help her to safety. When they stop by his house, Claire is surprised that Luke has a companion at home, and it's someone who recognises her!

After her sister reluctantly leaves her in charge, Jennifer is shocked by the complex plans and arrangements made for the kids. She drops into work to explain that she needs to take some time off, and promises to make up the time.

Claire takes the shuttle into town and immediately bumps into Luke again. He can advise her where to get her skates sharpened, and as it turns out, also seems to know quite a lot about skating! In search of a place to practice, Claire makes a naïve decision when she finds a frozen lake.

In the song “Somewhere Only We Know,” from their debut album Hopes and Fears, English rock band Keane seem to revisit a place they know very well from days gone by, taking time to reflect, and contemplate.

Let's look "under the hood," and see how to build causative constructions using "have," "let," "get," and "make."
