In this festive special John dons his Christmas jumper and gets to grips with all things Christmassy. Starting out with the hell of present buying, John goes on to discuss tacky decorations, family arguments and that awful Christmas music.

He also shares stories, including his embarrassing run in with a stern headmistress at his son's nativity play and also a pantomime disaster.

Along the way we hear funny opinions from members of the public and celebrities alike. Yuletide treats include Noddy Holder confessing that he has actually met Santa and Eamonn Holmes insisting that it's wives that ruin Christmas.
