Is Agnes Brown capable of not being grumpy, even on Christmas? That’s the central question posed by this year’s “Mrs. Brown’s Boys” Christmas special, and frankly, the odds aren’t looking good. As Agnes struggles to convince everyone she’s embraced the festive spirit, Cathy rallies the good people of Finglas for a charitable cause, proving that some hearts, at least, are in the right place. Meanwhile, Buster embarks on a quest for a sustainable Christmas tree, because nothing says holiday cheer like eco-conscious consumerism.
Will Agnes’s Grinch-like exterior finally crack? Will Cathy’s good deeds save Christmas? Will Buster find a tree that doesn’t require a small mortgage? These questions, and probably several more involving bodily functions and questionable wigs, will be answered when “Mrs. Brown’s Boys” airs Wednesday, December 25, at 11:05 PM on BBC One.
