Agatha Raisin: Kissing Christmas Goodbye (23 December) Sex and Skin: If there’s any of it, it’s very much implied, except when the daft Mrs. Boggle (Marcia Warren) gives a testicle keychain as a secret Santa gift — she thought it was chestnuts.

The Witcher series 2 (17 December) The enjoyment from this special doesn’t come from the mystery of who killed Phyllis. That mystery plods along, and is obtuse enough that it doesn’t encourage the audience to try to solve things along with Agatha.

In this festive episode, Chris Harris, Paddy McGuiness and Freddie Flintoff aren’t choosing their own cars, but instead choosing for one another. Yes, it’s time for Top Gear Secret Santa.
