Royle Family Christmas special Confirmed

[Iceman]

The BBC has revealed details of this year's Royle Family Christmas special.

Following on from the ratings success of last year's Christmas Day 'Golden Egg Cup' episode, writers Caroline Aherne and Craig Crash have penned 'Joe's Crackers'.

The one-off will feature the regular cast of Aherne, Cash, Ricky Tomlinson, Sue Johnston, Ralf Little, Peter Martin and Jessica Hynes.

'Joe's Crackers' will be based in the Royle house on December 25, with Barbara Royle (Johnston) struggling because her husband Jim (Tomlinson) has had "unfortunate incident in the precinct".

Meanwhile, Dave (Cash) and Denise (Aherne) are fretting because they are struggling financially and are worried that their fridge magnet won't live up to the rest of the family's presents.

The one where they went to Dave & Denise's for xmas was too slapstick and ruined the magic because it wasn't realistic anymore. The Golden Eggcup was really good though

I miss nana too :( Liz Smith probably hasn't got long left either..

Lockes post was so, so, so true! :joker:

I really like this, even if the recent episodes haven't been as good, they are still great in my view.

[Scarlett.]

Sounds like this one will just be taking place at the Royle's house

[Beastie]

Yes Can't wait! :)

Eventhough last year I thought they went on a bit about the "egg cup" or something. But anyway I still love it.
