School is out, and the mums (and Kevin) are prepping for the ultimate blended Christmas. Julia's house fills with grandparents demanding endless tea and a VR headset, Kevin offers to cook a full Persian feast, and Liz turns up after her ex falls asleep on a train following a Christmas Eve bender. Amanda, meanwhile, is spending the day with Johnny, the kids and his new wife Tamara. Which is fine. Really fine. A very funny, very British portrait of how many relatives one table can take before somebody cracks.
