You're an old man, Charlie Brown

'A Charlie Brown Christmas' turns 50 this week, and to celebrate we make up our own Charlie Brown specials for 2015.

Classic Christmas cartoon A Charlie Brown Christmas turned 50 years old this week.

Following the 1965 classic, there have been a lot of other Charlie Brown specials, from the good, like It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, to the somewhat odd You're Not Elected Charlie Brown, or to the terribly eighties It's Flashbeagle Charlie Brown.

Those are all real Charlie Brown specials, but for some fun, Because News panellists Eric Peterson, Sharron Matthews and Kris Siddiqi made up their own Charlie Brown specials for today's world.
