The Brockmans are back, and just in time for Christmas. This special sees Pete and Sue attempting to navigate the minefield of adult children, unwelcome news, and the general chaos of a family Christmas. Because apparently, dealing with toddlers throwing tantrums is a walk in the park compared to mediating disputes between grown offspring.
As if the usual family dynamics weren’t complicated enough, fate, nosy neighbours, and the improbable mention of hyenas further disrupt the Brockman’s attempts at festive harmony. And amidst the tinsel and turkey, Pete and Sue have some rather unwelcome news to deliver.
“Outnumbered” airs Thursday, December 26, at 9:40 PM on BBC One.
