 In this festive Christmas Day special of Cabernet Queens, hosts Matt Morgan and Deb Lee are joined by guests Andy Downing-Booth (Andrew Downing Booth Estate Agents) and returning favourite Matt Black (Matt Black Marketing), with Tan (aka “Mrs Overall”) keeping everything flowing in the background. Instead of a blind wine tasting, everyone brings along a drink that reminds them of Christmas, from whisky-laced tea to Bucks Fizz, champagne and mulled wine, while they tuck into a very mixed Christmas buffet and share stories about family, kids, cooking disasters and festive traditions.Key TakeawaysIn true Cabernet Queens style, each drink gets a score out of 10. The whisky tea divides opinion, the shop-bought Bucks Fizz suffers for being “a bit flat,” champagne becomes a love-it-or-hate-it moment, and mulled wine provokes strong feelings, especially around how much cinnamon is acceptable.The gang graze on a classic “thrown-together” Christmas buffet: pigs in blankets, mini pizzas, dips and pâté. Deb confesses she already demolished the first lot of pâté the night before, leading to good-natured teasing about her self-control, food poisoning fears, and who actually did the work in the kitchen (spoiler: mostly Tan).Matt and Andy compare Christmas mornings with their children – from being jumped on at 6:30am to stockings on bedroom doors, wrapping paper explosions, and dogs shredding everything in sight. There’s lots of love for keeping the Father Christmas magic alive for as long as possible.The group talk about who actually cooks on Christmas Day, from Deb handing the chef’s hat over to her son in recent years, to Andy claiming he can “smash” a roast, to Matt’s firm belief that gravy can make or break the meal. Deb shares the legendary year she’d drunk so much while waiting for family to arrive that she froze mid-pea-straining, and Tan had to take over the entire dinner.A throwaway chat about cinnamon turns into Andy attempting a mini “cinnamon challenge”, ending up covered in powder, with stinging eyes and the promise that he’ll smell like Christmas all the way to Dubai.Best Moments“On Christmas morning you had to have a cup of tea with whisky in it, and you couldn’t say no.”“There’s no such thing as time when it comes to alcohol at Christmas.”“I bought pâté for today… then had to text Matt and say, ‘Sorry, I’ve eaten it.’”“Sometimes you want quality, sometimes you just want a mountain on your plate – that’s Toby Carvery.”“I feel like I’m covered in cinnamon… my eyes are stinging, but at least I’ll smell festive on the plane.”About the HostsMatt Morgan is a passionate travel specialist committed to turning your dream holidays into reality.
