Festive edition of the topical comedy series hosted by Russell Howard. Usually seen offering his unique perspective on the big stories dominating the media across TV, online and in print, as well as picking up on those sometimes overlooked things that make him smile, this seasonal special sees Russell taking on traditional yuletide topics. Russell considers some of the more unusual aspects of the mince pie and sherry-soaked merry-go-round we call Christmas. Part of the BBC Christmas 2009 season.
