It's chriiistmaaas... and Rob and Paul are in a bit of a state in this seasonal slice of shenanigans. Featuring football fun, surprise celebrities, the long coach ride to Scotland, crowd control, in praise of The Holiday and other festive film favourites, and some choice words from Father Christmas himself; we are quite literally going to find out who's naughty or nice.
