BEST OF THE REST
CHRISTMAS SHOP WELL FOR LESS?
BBC1, 8pm
CHRISTMAS is all about excess, right? But this family will make you feel a whole lot better about your spending.
Alex Jones and Steph McGovern are in South Yorkshire with the Atwal-Brice family – Paul and Michael and their adopted sons, twins Levi and Lucas, 12, and one-year-old twins Lance and Lotan.
Paul and Michael want to take the four kids, two of whom have severe autism and epilepsy, to Disney World in Florida, but they’ll need to make some cutbacks.
They have 10 Christmas trees, with over 500 baubles, thousands of tree lights and a Santa’s grotto in the garden. Then there are Gucci kids tops, Versace dressing gowns, not to mention Harrods crackers at £100 a box.
Alex and Steph go all Grinch and steal Christmas, replacing it with a budget version. And when the couple find out what they could save on baubles alone, they might just choke on their Christmas dinner.

It felt like a long five minutes even for viewers.
But it was his East End charm, his enduring love for his wife ofd 54 years Sandra and his cravings for jam roly poly pudding that put him firmly in first place.
Now of course they are all back in the lap of luxury and cameras follow the 11 celebs as they settle back into the real world. We can see how everyone, including the likes of Noel Edmonds and Fleur East, is coping since stepping off that wobbly bridge. A little less hungry we imagine...
