Synopsis
Mum's forgotten to defrost the turkey, Dad's fused the fairy lights, the kids are singing rude words to carols, and Gran's tipsy on sweet sherry - yes, it's 'that' time of year again. If your seasonal stress levels are as maxed out as your credit cards, this hilarious collection of festive wit and humour is sure to put the jingle back in your bells. Joan Rivers, Jo Brand, Benny Hill and Groucho Marx are among the merrymakers who cast a comic eye over all those cherished Christmas traditions - shopping, prezzies, parties, bitter family rows and Brussel sprouts (oops! I do beg your pardon). Packed with more plums than a figgy pudding, it's a gift even Scrooge would be chuffed to find in his stocking. Altogether now, 'Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg...'
