As it’s 1st of December… In honour of the brand new VERY BRITISH PROBLEMS CHRISTMAS QUIZ BOOK, I’m going to be running an advent calendar quiz from now until 24th of December, where I’ll ask you a festive question each lunchtime. So stay tuned for that🎄 brnw.ch/21wEL5W

Time for our Christmas eve tradition. Patrick Stewart in A Christmas Carol. Love this version. Tonight alongside a glass of port and a slice of fruit cake. A happy Christmas and god bless us everyone.

And of course the incredible Richard E Grant, Dominic West, Ian McNiece and Liz Smith, among others. An amazing cast retelling the most famous Christmas story of all.

Starting the evening off with this. Toasted marshmallow cognac old fashioned. Happy new year.

#schmigadoon brilliant. That's all.

If conkers is Ben shephard they have played a blinder considering he appeared as a guest judge on this series. Although we haven't seen him and conkers in the same room at the same time #maskedsingeruk
