Of COURSE they get an encore.
First, however, they ship off the cat to the vet.
Then they perform, by popular demand, a rather ribald version of "The Twelve Days of Christmas." To tumultuous cheers, they each grab a couple of pints of frosty lager and retire to the wings to look for further scene-stealing opportunities -- there's only so much sheep-antics one can take.

Who left their costumes in a pile? If you can't take care of your things they will be taken away. God invented hangers for a reason, you little snots.

And suddenly there was with the Angel (6) a multitude of the Heavenly Host, praising God and saying, "All riiiiight! Who's got the bottle opener? Oh, are these twist-off caps? Glory to God in the highest!"

OK, glad to have sorted that out Angel 6. I'm taking a bottle and going to bed. In fact I'm taking several bottles and going to bed. The orchestra have worked out a rota, so there should never be any less than 4 musicians on the bandstand at any one time.
Although I use the word 'musician' in the loosest possible sense...

I don't know Gabriel - wot are you like? The Fairy Godmother appeared and defended our rights as Members of Equity (and the Angels Union). Angel 4 sang a song, and Angel 6 sang a solo, then Angel 6 and humble self sang a duet, then we sang an encore and ribald "12 Days of Christmas", then we handed out lots of beer and then Angel 2 sang a song despite the space time continuum....
O lay it on us, Boss Angel. Except Mary's gone to bed with a headache and taken the parrot....

If we play the tune, can you just say the line please? We'll edit it together in the cutting room later ... oh, this is live ... er ... take it away guys!

Ah yes, best get instruments out... How about an A, someone?

gives up and starts anyway
His humble handmaiden is grinning with glee, There's no other woman as blessed as me. The whole world will wonder my pureness and piety. (I'm the only one here to show signs of sobriety!) His strong arm will guide me and brighten the gloom, For blessed am I and the fruit of the loom. (Ooops, sorry, meant to say "Fruit of my Womb") His name will be Jesus, I couldn't be gladder!

Do you want to just pop into this woolley jumper dear? I just saw you singing and dancing around in your nighty and i'm worried that you might catch a bit of a chill. It's not even flannelling, but a one of those polyesters if I'm not mistaken... and even if you've got some fluffy slippers on, it's hardly outdoor wear.
This is one of Geoff's jumpers, I knitted it for him a few Christmases ago but i'm sure he won't mind you slipping into it. The moss green and brown stripes go quite well with the blue. (I had to learn all this colour co-ordination business for the padgent you know!) We can't have you coming down with a cold when you've got such an exciting time ahead! Better take a lemsip for good measure.
