BBC Radio 4 - Now You're Asking with Marian Keyes and Tara Flynn, Christmas Special

Marian and Tara take listeners’ Christmas questions in their stride.

The annual festivities can bring so much joy but also their fair share of pain and anxiety. Marian and Tara take listeners’ Christmas questions in their stride.

The holiday season is not easy for everyone. Some people love it, some can’t stand it and others want to enjoy some downtime with the family - if only it wasn’t their family, in their house, at this time of the year.
 
Demanding guests arrive - but whose holiday traditions should you follow?  A family member monopolises the season - should you head over to her house - again? And what are the ways of coping with the sadness this ‘happy’ time of year can bring? Marian and Tara take listeners’ Christmas questions in their stride.
