Christmas is a time for overindulgence, so this week we present you with not one but two dumb guests, some bad crackers (mostly Alex’s) and a few vagina jokes just for Christmas seasoning. Alan Maguire of Roast Chestnuts and Juvenalia podcast fame talks to Caroline about made-for-TV Christmas movies and why they’re having a resurgence this year, Hannah finds out the frankly heartwarming story behind Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Alex gifts us a special Christmas poem and forces us to play games together (but it’s Christmas bingo, so it’s fine). Dr Jane Frail is also on hand with some useful advice about dealing with difficult family members when you’re in close proximity with them, and finally trend reporter Lucy Vine joins us to tell us what we should be looking out for this winter.
