Ricky Tomlinson and Ralf Little watch The Royle Family

Ricky Tomlinson and Ralf Little take a look back over one of the most tender and beautiful sitcom moments in history.

Featuring: Ricky Tomlinson & Ralf Little.

Press

Here's something: a Christmas special of a series not set to start until next year. Except it's not even December, and the format feels familiar: sitcom duos settle on sofas to wax lyrical while watching classic comedy. Essentially Gogglebox with celebrities, much like - hey! - Celebrity Gogglebox. So, your favourite festive TV moments continuously curtailed by obvious observations. A dry run for your own family Christmas?
