0:00:15 > 0:00:17# I'd heard it all before
0:00:17 > 0:00:18# Just another day
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# January, February all the same
0:00:21 > 0:00:23# March, April, May's coming back again
0:00:23 > 0:00:26# Oh, why?
0:00:26 > 0:00:30# Cos it's the worst year of my life again
0:00:30 > 0:00:32# It's looped around and pulled me back in
0:00:32 > 0:00:35# Now yesterday has come again
0:00:35 > 0:00:37# Oh, no
0:00:37 > 0:00:39# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

0:01:02 > 0:01:04Did I forget to mention, Si,
0:01:04 > 0:01:06that Mum is really into Christmas?
0:01:06 > 0:01:08You don't say.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Yeah.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12It's like the most important day of the year for her.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14She makes the roast and then we play our games
0:01:14 > 0:01:16and then we set up for the family photo.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18She likes to drag it out for the whole day.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Oh, not the whole...the whole day?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23I thought... We're still going to Nicola's beach party, right?
0:01:23 > 0:01:25That's all that anyone will be talking about all summer.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28That's the reason I never went back to England.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30I thought it was cos you were afraid of flying.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31No.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Of course, we're going to Nicola's.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36It's my last chance to impress her.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39And my last chance to see you humiliate yourself.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Oh, shut up!
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Anyway, we'll make it. I've got it all figured out.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46I'm going to make sure Mum's Christmas goes by
0:01:46 > 0:01:48a lot faster than she expected.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50PARTY HORN BLOWS
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Pressie time!
0:02:05 > 0:02:07So, how are you, Auntie Ethel?
0:02:07 > 0:02:09It died. The cat got it.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Deaf as a post.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Well, what do you think?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Ah...
0:02:16 > 0:02:17it's interesting.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19It's a shirt with my name on it.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20I knew you'd love it.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Why don't you put the rest of it on?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Erm...
0:02:24 > 0:02:25later maybe.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Well, that's all of the presents opened...
0:02:28 > 0:02:30in five minutes.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32I still don't know why you wanted to make it a race, Alex.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35I won though, right? Is there a prize?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37I know.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Maybe, I should start putting lunch on. Hmm?
0:02:40 > 0:02:43I should have it ready by about three.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Actually, Mum, there's no need.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Booking us into a seaside restaurant for lunch
0:02:54 > 0:02:56is a lovely thought, Alex.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58You're welcome. My treat to the family.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Yes, it's very, very sweet. Only I wish you'd said.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02I mean, what about the turkey I bought?
0:03:02 > 0:03:03- Freezer.- The ham?
0:03:03 > 0:03:04- Freezer.- The salad?
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Freezer.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07And it's only 364 days until Christmas,
0:03:07 > 0:03:09so we're prepared.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Well, the pavlova won't keep.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13We can bring it with us. Eat it afterwards,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- cos we've only got the table till 12.- Till 12?
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Yeah, early-bird sitting before the food goes.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Si, go and get the pav.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21I will.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Oh, no, no, no, no, I'll lock up.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Go get in the car, tell Dad to start the car.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25Go, go, go, go, go!
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Where are we going?
0:03:27 > 0:03:28HE SHOUTS: To a restaurant.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Cricket! Oh, that'll be lovely.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Your mother always loved a game of Christmas cricket
0:03:33 > 0:03:34when she was a little girl.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Made her day, it did.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Played it till her arms were tired.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Lunch over by 12 and a ride to the beach.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44You are a genius, Rudolph.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Do you never take a day off from that?
0:03:49 > 0:03:50Seasons greetings.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Merry Christmas, Maddy.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54Your parents still doing their yearly street theatre thing?
0:03:54 > 0:03:56They're banned from three suburbs now.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58So, you want to come to lunch with us?
0:04:05 > 0:04:06Look, there's Nicola.
0:04:06 > 0:04:07What?
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Must be off to her barbecue.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14GIRLS GIGGLE
0:04:23 > 0:04:25That would have been embarrassing.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27At least she didn't know who I was.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28I like your T-shirt, Alex.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33ALEX MOANS
0:04:33 > 0:04:35MADDY LAUGHS
0:04:35 > 0:04:37What's so funny?
0:04:37 > 0:04:38Pavlova.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Isn't it such a silly-looking dessert?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Look. Isn't it?
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Do you like pavlova, Auntie Ethel?
0:04:45 > 0:04:49I saw one on holiday safari in Kenya.
0:04:49 > 0:04:521976. Great big tusks it had.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Alex, I think maybe we've come too far.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57There doesn't seem to be any more restaurants along here.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Here we are.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00The Sandwich Shack.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Alex, I don't know that they...
0:05:04 > 0:05:05Come on, come on.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07I just hope it's not too crowded.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Well, lucky they could squeeze us in.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Ah, no need. We'll all have the Christmas turkey.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Turkey? They do turkey?
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Of course they do. It's Christmas.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31We'll have seven turkeys, please,
0:05:31 > 0:05:33and could you please bring the pavlova out
0:05:33 > 0:05:34as soon as we're done?
0:05:34 > 0:05:35I live to serve.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Oh, well, that's good, isn't it?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41A nice...nice turkey lunch.
0:05:41 > 0:05:46I always love cooking my family a nice roast on Christmas Day.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50But, of course, this is really nice too, Alex. Thank you.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Hey, I know what we can do while we wait.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56We can pick our teams for the games marathon this afternoon.
0:05:56 > 0:05:57Huh?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00We always play board games on Christmas afternoon.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02It's quality family time.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04One year we played for so long,
0:06:04 > 0:06:08we didn't have lunch until dinner time.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Yeah, yeah, it was brilliant.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Why wait till then
0:06:11 > 0:06:14when we can do a quiz now?
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Oh, well, Alex, it's not really quite the same.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Of course it is. It'll be great.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Auntie Ethel, you're up for a quick round
0:06:21 > 0:06:23of the 60-second-quiz, aren't you?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Oh, the doctor gave me some cream for it.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28It still itches when it rains.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30There you go. Everyone's on board.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32What brings the family and friends closer together
0:06:32 > 0:06:35than a nice Christmas quiz?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38THEY ARGUE AND SHOUT OVER EACH OTHER
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Maddy, what are the scores?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Oh, sorry, I was doodling.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I was really hoping I'd get a nice pet for Christmas.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51I'd love a pet.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52I'd call him Chester.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00Compliments of the season.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02What's this?
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Your turkey sandwiches.
0:07:03 > 0:07:04Turkey...
0:07:04 > 0:07:06sandwiches.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Enjoy.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Erm, it's a traditional turkey sandwich.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14It's very Christmassy.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Come on, Mum, Dad, get into it.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18How about you, Samantha?
0:07:18 > 0:07:21It's all right. I'll order some more.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23No, nobody stop eating. It's all right, I've got it.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Oh, Alex!
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Alex, hey! Come on, mind your antlers.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30She's choking. Does anyone know the Heimlich Manoeuvre?
0:07:30 > 0:07:33I'll give it a go.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Oh, Alex, are you all right?
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Ooh, I hope that doesn't bruise.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Doesn't bruise? I nearly died.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44I know, but we've got the family photo this afternoon.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Actually, I have another surprise.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49I thought that we could take the photo here.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Oh, Alex...
0:07:51 > 0:07:54the family photo is really important to me.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Look, I know you two are getting older
0:07:56 > 0:08:00and I know there will be a time when you won't want to stand around
0:08:00 > 0:08:03posing for silly photos with your mum and dad,
0:08:03 > 0:08:06but until then, I really enjoy it.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09And I think it needs a proper festive background.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11So, if you don't mind I'd like to go home
0:08:11 > 0:08:13and do it in front of the tree.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15DOOR OPENS
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Merry Christmas.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Oh, this is great. A real festive scene.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Remember when we used to sit on Santa's lap?
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Oh, yes!
0:08:28 > 0:08:30In fact, Sam, why don't...
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Why don't I sit on Santa's lap?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Everybody say cheese!
0:08:38 > 0:08:40ALL: Cheese!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Oh, it's good. One for the album.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Oh, no, my pavlova!
0:08:53 > 0:08:54My beard!
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Oi! Can't go in there!
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Give me back my beard!
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Can I please just have five minutes?
0:09:08 > 0:09:09No! Get out, you clown.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- My fish!- Don't worry, I'll get it.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Give me that!
0:09:29 > 0:09:30Alex?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Oh, hey, Nicola!
0:09:32 > 0:09:34How's it going?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36You are not coming to my party like that.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Party? What party?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Erm...
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Oh, I see.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Mum, it's not what it looks like.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54No, erm...no, that's... that's fine, Alex.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- I'm just going to wash my hands. - Mum! Wait!
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Give me that.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Shame about the pavlova.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09I know.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10I was there last year.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13They had the world's smallest accordion.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14If anything, it was too small.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27ALARM CLOCK RINGS
0:10:27 > 0:10:29What on earth is that?
0:10:29 > 0:10:33That's my alarm. I set it an hour early.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Why?
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Because it's Christmas!
0:10:36 > 0:10:37Yeah!
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Get in the Christmas spirit.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Erm, OK.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46We are still going to Nicola's beach barbie though, right?
0:10:46 > 0:10:49I mean, that's all anyone will be talking about.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51For once, Simon, I'm going to use the loop year
0:10:51 > 0:10:53to fix something really important,
0:10:53 > 0:10:56and give my mum the best Christmas ever.
0:10:56 > 0:10:57Get up. Get up!
0:10:57 > 0:10:59- You get up.- Get up!
0:10:59 > 0:11:00Get up!
0:11:03 > 0:11:04I'm up.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13So, how's that budgie of yours, Auntie Ethel?
0:11:13 > 0:11:16I know, dear. There's never anywhere to park now.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18I just catch the bus.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Deaf as a post.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21Where's Alex?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Alex, come on!
0:11:23 > 0:11:26It's pressie time!
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Slow down there, Rudolph. It's not a race.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00I love it.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02I can't wait to put the other things on.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Oh, I knew you would.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Oh, well, that's all the presents opened
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- and it only took us...- An hour.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12It took an hour.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14You can't rush Christmas, can you, Mum?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16No.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Well, I suppose I'd better get started on lunch
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- if I want it to be ready... - Oh, no need.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23This year the men'll take care of Christmas lunch.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Come on.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36You sure there isn't a bigger oven in here somewhere?
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Maybe we should just do some sandwiches.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Sandwiches at Christmas?
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Well, your mum was going to do it.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45I mean, there must be a way.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46I'm going to ask her.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48No, no, no, don't get Mum. It's all right.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Remember that this is my present to her
0:12:50 > 0:12:52and I want her Christmas to be special
0:12:52 > 0:12:54and that includes lunch.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Maybe we should just eat out.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59You know, maybe there's a...
0:12:59 > 0:13:01there's a barbecue or something.
0:13:01 > 0:13:06No. I don't know, maybe near a beach or something.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Brilliant.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09You're a genius!
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Am I?
0:13:19 > 0:13:20All is in hand, Mum.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23We'll be eating Christmas lunch before you know it.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25You know that's not what I meant.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- MUFFLED: - I know what we can do while we wait.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41We can start with our games marathon.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42Oh, let's play this one!
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Brainiac Quiz. Oh, and it's still in its wrapper.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46- No, no, no.- Alex!
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Quizzes just cause arguments.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Trust me.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53We'll be much better off with...
0:13:53 > 0:13:55a nice game of street cricket.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Huh?- Oh!- Huh?
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Think of us, out in the open Christmas air,
0:14:00 > 0:14:03proper family time.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05What do you say?
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Christmas cricket.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Go, go, go, go, go, go.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17It's working, mate. Mum's having the best Christmas ever.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23What's up with him?
0:14:23 > 0:14:24Oh, he's just fed up
0:14:24 > 0:14:26cos we're missing Nicola's barbecue.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28I'm surprised you're not.
0:14:28 > 0:14:29Giving Mum the perfect Christmas
0:14:29 > 0:14:32is a lot more important than impressing some hot girl.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Especially since you ruined it last time.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- All right, Madds. - Impressing some hot girl.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Yes, OK. Thank you.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40But the point is that I learned from my mistakes, yeah?
0:14:40 > 0:14:42And now we're going to play cricket.
0:14:42 > 0:14:43Do you want to umpire?
0:14:43 > 0:14:44OK.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Apparently, Mum used to play when she was a little girl,
0:14:47 > 0:14:49and she used to play until her arms got tired.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55If anything brings the family closer,
0:14:55 > 0:14:58it'll be a nice game of Christmas cricket.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02It's just not cricket.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04But the veranda has always been six and out.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Yep, it wasn't even your turn to bowl.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08How come no-one ever lets me bat?
0:15:08 > 0:15:10You're making up rules as you go along.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Yeah, well, I was saddled with Auntie Ethel...
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I can make up any rules I like.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16Maddy, Maddy, what are the scores?
0:15:20 > 0:15:21- Chester, right?- Chester.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Maybe we should just go back inside?
0:15:28 > 0:15:30No, no, no, no, no, no, we're having family time.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32No more arguing, all right?
0:15:32 > 0:15:35We'll just start again. I'll get the ball.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Check this out, Sam.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Back home I was tipped for the England squad.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Never missed a ball in my...
0:15:45 > 0:15:46Oww!
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Oh, come on, chin face!
0:15:49 > 0:15:50That better not bruise.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52I don't want you to ruin Mum's photo.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54You all right, Sam?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Don't worry, Mum, I can't see a bruise.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59All right,
0:15:59 > 0:16:01you bowl, I'll bat.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04All right! Bowling was, you know, always more my thing.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Oh, just nick off!
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Don't go! It's family time!
0:16:10 > 0:16:11Sam!
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Mum.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17No way, Mrs King.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18Look at me.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Shot!
0:16:29 > 0:16:31How many points was that?
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Not in the wild, no.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Saw one at the zoo once, though.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Great, big, hairy shoulders.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40- You got lucky.- Oh, come on.
0:16:40 > 0:16:41Just help me find the ball.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43We'll be back in a sec, Mum.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52It's got to be here somewhere.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Ouch!
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Oh, it's just a rock.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Oh, don't take it out on me.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01You're the one who had to show off
0:17:01 > 0:17:03by whacking the stupid ball so hard.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06I knew I shouldn't have given you such an easy bowl.
0:17:06 > 0:17:07Now, when we find it again,
0:17:07 > 0:17:10I am going to power blast you off the field,
0:17:10 > 0:17:12like...like BOOM!
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Yeah, like an exploding turkey.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22How did that happen?
0:17:22 > 0:17:23I don't know.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25That was cool, though.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26Did that happen last time?
0:17:26 > 0:17:29I think I would have mentioned it, don't you?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Great.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32No turkey for lunch,
0:17:32 > 0:17:35and that's like the most important part of the day for her.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Oh, I'd say you gave it your best shot.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41No turkey means no Christmas.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43It's time to give up,
0:17:43 > 0:17:44and seeing as we're giving up,
0:17:44 > 0:17:46we might as well head down to the beach.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48No way! Christmas isn't over yet.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50We're just going to wait for it to come back down then, are we?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Very funny.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53I'm not waiting for anything.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55There's still time to fix this.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Why isn't it coming back down?
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Oh, we're going in, Alex.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Auntie Ethel needs a glass of water.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Oh, that's fine, Mum.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15Game's over anyway.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17- You won. Congratulations.- Did I?
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Oh, I never used to like cricket.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Your Aunt Ethel used to make me play all the time when I was a girl.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26I used to pretend that my arms were tired just to get out of it.
0:18:28 > 0:18:29Maddy.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33You've got to help me. I've lost the turkey.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Oh, you have? How did you do that?
0:18:35 > 0:18:37It flew off. I need you to help me get another one
0:18:37 > 0:18:39or Mum's Christmas will be ruined.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41I'm sure it won't. She'll organise something herself.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43I think your mum likes to do that sort of thing.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45You didn't see her last time round, Madds.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48She cried, all because I cared about some stupid party
0:18:48 > 0:18:50more than her feelings.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Out of everything that happened, that was the worst.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55What, worse than when Parker put you in that locker, upside down?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Yes.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Oh, OK, Alex. I'll get your turkey.
0:18:59 > 0:19:00You can rely on me.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11What's taking Maddy so long?
0:19:11 > 0:19:14You know the beach party will have finished by now, don't you?
0:19:16 > 0:19:17Look!
0:19:17 > 0:19:18I'm hideous.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20I think the purple brings out
0:19:20 > 0:19:21the blueyness of your eyes.
0:19:26 > 0:19:27They're brown!
0:19:27 > 0:19:28MOBILE RINGS
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Yeah, I'm winning her round.
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Yes, she's got one.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34She's bringing it now.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36OK, Simon, you get the family and put them round the table
0:19:36 > 0:19:38and let Maddy in when she gets here.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- I've got to go and get changed. - Changed?
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Yeah, I've got one last Christmas surprise left for Mum.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44She'll love it.
0:19:52 > 0:19:53Erm...
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Isn't he beautiful?
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Alex asked me to get him.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Can we call him Chester?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03PARTY HORN BLOWS
0:20:06 > 0:20:08I've got it!
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Oh, that one flew away too, Alex.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Where's Chester?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Is the front door still open?
0:20:36 > 0:20:37Oh, for...
0:20:40 > 0:20:42GIRLS GIGGLE
0:20:47 > 0:20:48GIRLS LAUGH
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Hey.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51How's it going?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Ho, ho, ho!
0:20:54 > 0:20:56GIRLS LAUGH
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Now that was embarrassing.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Least they wouldn't have known who I was.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01Hey, Alex!
0:21:01 > 0:21:02I like your...
0:21:02 > 0:21:04shorts.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06It's a long story.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Thanks a lot for the help, guys.
0:21:25 > 0:21:26My fish!
0:21:26 > 0:21:27Oh, she's choking.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Does anyone know the Heimlich manoeuvre?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31What manoeuvre?
0:21:39 > 0:21:42I can't help but sense that this is somehow my fault.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Why didn't we just go to the party?
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Poor Auntie Ethel.
0:21:46 > 0:21:47What party?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Erm, we were invited to a beach barbecue,
0:21:51 > 0:21:53but we decided not to go
0:21:53 > 0:21:57because we thought that it would be best to spend Christmas here.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Oh!
0:22:01 > 0:22:02Why are you crying?
0:22:02 > 0:22:06No, I'm not crying.
0:22:06 > 0:22:07Ohh!
0:22:07 > 0:22:09I just worry that you two are getting older
0:22:09 > 0:22:12and that there'll be a time when you won't want to spend Christmas
0:22:12 > 0:22:14with your mum and dad.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17You'd rather be off having parties with your friends.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20I'm just so glad that hasn't happened yet.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22But I ruined everything. We don't even have any lunch.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Well, we've still got my lovely pavlova.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Pavlova.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32And I could always make some sandwiches.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Some lovely Christmas sandwiches.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40What's say we tidy up the tree and tidy up in here
0:22:40 > 0:22:44and then, we'll get ready for the family Christmas photo, hmm?
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Because you know how much I love the family Christmas photo.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Put it on timer, Simon.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51I want you in the photo as well. You too, Maddy.
0:22:54 > 0:22:55Everyone say, "pavlova"!
0:22:55 > 0:22:57It'll be shut by now.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59Anyone, once you've seen one tiny accordion,
0:22:59 > 0:23:01you've seen them all.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Three, two, one...
0:23:04 > 0:23:08ALL: Pavlova!
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Good. One for the album.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25Out in the open air...
0:23:25 > 0:23:28out in the open Christmas air...
0:23:28 > 0:23:30on the streets.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36SHE LAUGHS
