The long hair, the beard, the convo about the Undertones; was Ashley mistaking him for a young John Peel?

I've never heard of John Peel but I assumed Ashley went into the shop because of the Undertones poster in the window. He kept saying to the bloke that he wanted to buy tickets for the concert for his brother. That's all it was.

He definitely looked like him, and the casting might have been deliberate, because Ashley isn't really seeing things as they are any more. If he was in to the Undertones, he'd have been into Peel. Though I don't remember any mentions of Ashley having a bit of a rock and roll past before.

I have to admit I initially thought Jesus (Ashley being a vicar, the guy being a good Samaritan to him, it being Christmas etc)

I think that's a lovely thought

That is definitely a possibility. I suppose us viewers are left to decide for our selves.

They will keep bringing that religion into Christmas

I thought he was just a kindly hipster, but Jesus makes sense. That would be a nice touch, with him giving Ashley the coat.

I loved this scene it the best in the episode, the guy in the shop was great.

The early part of the episode was a good mix of nice folk and yobs taking the piss out of Ashley.
