When filming The West Wing’s “Noel” they asked Yo-Yo Ma to mime and they’d put the sound in later. He said (approx) “nah, I’ll just play it perfect and at the same speed and at the same time, on every shot”

Good idea on all the Christmas ones, I really just need to do a first-five-seasons rewatch of it. During lockdown I discovered the podcast "The West Wing Weekly" which was fun and where I stole the above fact from.

I love that episode!! I need to rewatch all the Christmas ones this weekend. And not surprised he would “do it live!”
