Christmas Special (30x51)

:

Matt Baker and the team are in the small village of Elsdon in Northumberland, where preparations are in full swing for a big Christmas bash. Matt helps get the Bird in Bush pub all decked out for the party and meets some of the locals for whom the pub is much more than merely a place for a quiet drink. Steve Brown is out and about picking sloes for a festive tipple with a difference. Anita Rani turns to blacksmithing for an unusual Christmas decoration. John Craven is in the woods with the foragers looking for pine needles to give their cookies a seasonal twist. Ellie Harrison heads to Wallington Hall to see the red squirrels in all their winter pomp. Tom Heap joins the choir spreading good cheer door to door in a bid to combat isolation among the more elderly in the community. And Adam Henson is in Worcestershire at the biggest mistletoe market in the country.
