Will it be a Merry Christmas at Brookfield?

Will it be a Merry Christmas at Brookfield? Jazzer has an idea.

David turns down every offer of help with the cooking. He’s determined to do it by himself though fully expects Jill to take over when she arrives. David rushes round the kitchen finalising the dinner while Jill looks on and asks about when they’ll see Elizabeth and whether Vince will be there too. Jill is impressed with David’s bravery for taking on the Christmas meal single-handedly. After the meal, David admits he expected his mum to take charge. This prompts Jill to say that she’s realised that food isn’t the only way to show love. Davis reassures her that the family’s recent rifts are all healed. Jill is touched. David makes plans to move the rest of her stuff from The Bull – Jill’s coming home.
Brad and Chelsea pester Tracy about when she’s going to propose to Jazzer. Then, as they all unwrap the last of their presents, they wonder whether they should source free items every year. After a tough year they all enjoy themselves. Later, out of earshot from Jazzer, Tracy confirms to her children that she plans to propose to Jazzer on New Year’s Eve. Later, while Tracy naps, Jazzer asks Chelsea and Brad how they would feel if he proposed to their mum. Chelsea jumps in saying it’s a great idea but how it’s done needs thought. To their horror Jazzer reveals he’s planning to do it tomorrow.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
