With the silly season about to descend upon us, we're due to get hit with a flurry of Christmas-themed films over the next couple of months, with one of the more interesting being the animated feature Santa's Apprentice. A French/Australian co-production, the film's plot is all in the title: Santa shows orphan boy Nicholas the ropes. However, what sets it apart from the usual holiday ham is the fact that Santa is voiced by Kenny himself, Shane Jacobsen, who has good enough to fill us in on the challenges of giving voice to the man in the sleigh.
