Further details
It's Christmas once again in the Brown household and Agnes and her family are trying to get used to "the new normal". Luckily, things haven't changed that much. Mrs Brown has a new tree, Grandad has a new complaint and Buster and Dermot have new jobs, helping to raise awareness of the coronavirus.
There's much to distract them too, as Winnie and Agnes have entered a competition in the Radio Times to perform an alternative Queen's speech and are waiting to hear if they've won. Plus they've been told to look out for a flasher called the Knickie Knackie Dickie who's been terrorising households around Finglas. Meanwhile, Father Damien is worried he's not getting his Christmas message across and has come to Agnes for some advice.

Review: Mrs. Brown's Boys Christmas Special
Love it or loathe it, the Christmas juggernaut rolls on - but this year's special had a serious emotional message to deliver.
Ed Power, The Telegraph, 25th December 2020Review: Mrs. Brown's Boys Christmas Special
Mammy Of The People is a reminder of just how gruesome Brendan O'Carroll's long-running comedy is.
Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 25th December 2020Review: Mrs. Brown's Boys Christmas Special
It wouldn't be Christmas without a visit (or two) to the Brown residence, says Helen Daly.
