10 Years and a Lovely Bit of Squirrel

Christmas Special

It's Christmas day. Mum has made a fantastic Christmas dinner. The boys are delighted that Grandma, is coming round, but horrified that dad's mother - 'Horrible Grandma' - is coming too.

A celebration of Robert Popper’s comedy Friday Night Dinner, to mark its 10-year anniversary. The sitcom, which coined the catchphrase `lovely bit of squirrel’, centred on the fortunes of the eccentric Goodman family and their even more surreal neighbour Jim. With behind-the-scenes material and never-before-seen outtakes, this documentary features interviews with stars including Tamsin Greig, Paul Ritter, Simon Bird, Tom Rosenthal, Mark Heap and Tracy-Ann Oberman. It also includes the thoughts of celebrity fans Claudia Winkleman, Joe Thomas, David Baddiel and Jessica Hynes.

Two siblings share their Friday night dinners at their parents home and, somehow, something always goes wrong.
