Ross O’Carroll-Kelly in Lapland: Johnny goes, ‘My daddy says we’re going to eat a reindeer’.Her old man is like, ‘You should have had Ross neutered a long time ago’.Sorcha’s old dear takes off her apron and goes, “I am leaving right now unless you tell me what I’m doing here.” Sorcha’s old dear is like, “I beg your pordon?” I thought if the last two years have taught us anything, it’s the importance of family.” “Oh, pordon me for wanting to spend some time with my mother and my daughter. I just don’t know what this is all about.” Her old dear’s there, “I can’t drink, dorling, I’m driving.” “Oh my God, Mom, you have to try Ross’s famous mulled wine! It has to be tasted to be believed!” I’m stirring the pot and I’m like, “Yeah, no, just adding the last of the secret ingredients, Sorcha.” There’s a secret Christmas pudding recipe that’s been in Sorcha’s family for, like, more than 150 years “Ross,” Sorcha goes, “is the mulled wine nearly ready?” Because she definitely sounds like she could use a drink. “I’m perfectly capable of having amazing fun without putting antlers on my head.” “Mom, please! I want to put it up on Instagram and I want it to look like we’re all having amazing, amazing fun!” I’m going carolling tonight with the Glenageary Lawn Tennis Club Christmas Choir.” She’s there, “I’ve just got my blow dry done.
Mom, put your antlers on.”īut her old dear is having none of it. “Honor,” she goes, “your turn – favourite Christmas memory. And she keeps reminding everyone, at 60-second intervals, that they’re supposed to be having fun. She’s got Bublé on the CD player and she has me making my famous mulled wine.
She’s bought matching jumpers and aprons for all of them – oh, and yeah, no, reindeer antlers. She’s having – get this – a Christmas mother and daughter day with her old dear and Honor and she’s gone about it in her usual try-too-hord way. Sorcha has pushed the boat out in a major way here.
