00:00 Welcome to the Jones family Christmas. Cheers.
00:04 Brian, sit here!
00:07 Look happy!
00:09 You better not be eating my bloody allsop.
00:11 No.
00:12 This is the first time I've had the whole family together in donkey's years.
00:16 My skin is literally on fire.
00:18 We're in Australia. Everything here hurts.
00:20 Are you still enjoying London?
00:22 Oh, of course.
00:23 Everything's all right. I'm fine.
00:25 Alex has just broken up with her girlfriend.
00:28 Just promise me you'll pretend to enjoy yourself.
00:31 Your brother's new girl. I think she might be the one.
00:34 Welcome!
00:35 Everyone, this is Felicity.
00:37 Alex.
00:38 Oh.
00:39 It's for a few nights and then we can all go back to our normal happy life.
00:43 What's the worst that could happen?
00:44 Brian, everyone get your stuff? They're evacuating the whole area.
00:47 The fires are getting closer.
00:48 We have to go.
00:49 It's like everyone's settling in.
00:52 I brought the good sh*t.
00:53 Coffee is free for anyone who joins the book club.
00:57 What if Elizabeth Bennet moves to London?
00:59 Suddenly she realizes she was happier with her little family in the stupid bloody village.
01:04 Sorry, what chapter was that again?
01:06 No, I think it's like subtext from her personal life.
01:08 I know this situation is far from ideal.
01:13 But for now, we're all home.
01:18 Merry Christmas.
01:19 So, I invite you all to raise your glasses and make a toast to the Jones family Christmas.
01:25 Cheers.
01:26 Cheers.
01:27 These are the most delightful crackers.
01:32 Mum does them herself to make a bigger bang.
01:34 I think she put about ten in that.
01:35 I'm sorry.
