In 2006, the BBC commissioned a talking heads programme, Why we Love the Royle Family, which included celebrity fans such as Noel Gallagher, Paul Heaton and J.K. Rowling.

It's Children in Need night and Barbara announces to Denise and Dave that Jim is being generous and giving some of his spare change to Children In Need, but Jim is looking for some in his armchair!

Inspired by Nigella Lawson, Denise decides to cook Christmas dinner for the whole family. Jim provides the yuletide log and, much to his dismay, Dave's Mum and Dad are invited to join in with the festivities. What could possibly go wrong ?

Jim is 'dying' of flu, and it's Comic Relief Night 2009. Antony comes to the house after raising £4,000 for Comic Relief by skydiving from a plane and everybody complaining about the smell coming from Jim's 'sweaty balls' !

There's a new buzz in the Royle family household, as it's a special time for Jim and Barbara and a celebration is planned. Poor Mary from next door can't be present though as, sadly, she has lost all bladder control and has leaked in a number of shops in the precinct.

Jim and Barbara have received a gift of money from their loving children, but what to do with it ? Barbara wants to go abroad for the first time having only been away once on their honeymoon to Ormskirk. Will Jim persuade Barbara that an HD satellite box is a more appropriate way to spend their children's generous gift ? Tension mounts, a family discussion ensues - the question is where will they go ? Down to the television superstore as Jim suggests, or Barbara's dream holiday to the Bermuda triangle ?

Barbara is up to her eyes in it on Christmas Day, with Jim incapacitated due to an unfortunate incident. Meanwhile, neighbour Joe is unusually garrulous.
