Are you lot actually eating Christmas Dinner at lunch time? Do you start cooking at 6am? Are my family weird for not having it ready by 17:00 at the earliest?
My Christmas dinner was on the table for about 1:30pm, and I didn’t start cooking it until 9am (with most of the actual work not starting until more like 10:30). I did a little prep the night before, but not much really.
It’s not really that much work when you’ve got it down. It’s just a roast. If you can get it on the table for lunch time most Sundays, it’s not that big a deal to do it on Christmas day.

Yes. I was scoffing at 3 which was running late.
We follow Delia. Turkey in the oven before 10 and we were eating by half two.
