Sally Lindsay’s Christmas Quiz Night
Broadcast: December 2025 (Channel 5)
Host Sally Lindsay tests two teams of celebrities led by captains John Thomson and Shappi Khorsandi on their memories of classic Christmas TV, music and film in a nostalgic festive feast of questions covering everything from Band Aid to Albert Square, Morecambe & Wise to Quality Street.
Featuring a selection box of rarely-seen clips like Christmas ‘Runaround’ and ‘Farmhouse Kitchen’, as well as old favourites including ‘The Good Life’ and ‘Only Fools & Horses’, Christmas Past is brought to life with some serious quizzing and silly games.
The teams reminisce over some favourite – and forgotten – Christmas ads, Christopher Biggins and Lesley Joseph share some revealing panto memories, and anarchy prevails as team captains John Thomson and Shappi Khorsandi are given a box of props and 30 seconds to act out a list of classic Christmas films to their team-mates.
Crackers are pulled, Snowballs are drunk, and seasonal merriment is guaranteed as Stephen Bailey auditions for a panto, Debbie McGee attempts to wrap a football, and the teams attempt the fiendishly difficult game: Chocolate Or Sprout?
