Further details

Nicky and Steve make a pact not to celebrate Christmas this year. They're determined to treat it just like any other day.

But when Nicky takes pity on Alice, the wily old lady from the village, they find themselves hosting a drinks party, although as Steve is at pains to point out, "It's not Christmas drinks - it's just drinks that happen to be on Christmas Eve."

Nicky's Dad is invited, as are Matt and Meena, the world's smuggest neighbours. An unexpected turn of events leads to their house guests staying longer than any of them intended. Matt and Meena's children complain that it's turning into the worst.
