Brassic unveils Christmas special teaser with a Nativity twist
Brassic has released the trailer for its Christmas special, putting a decidedly northern hospitality spin on the classic tale of the Nativity.
The promo video sees 'Mary and Joseph' atop their donkey, looking for shelter as they prepare to welcome their first child and son of God into the world... only to be told by Farmer Jim to sling their hooks (in a less nice manner).
The special itself isn't a complete retelling of the Nativity story, with our characters portraying the various roles, but the story of the birth baby Jesus does feature in the plot, as revealed by the official synopsis.

"The plan is to kick back, relax and enjoy life to the max. But then comes the inevitable," it reads.
"A call from Dr Chris saying his aunt is in crisis and needs looking after and a robbery at Tyler's school ruining his nativity. Vinnie, Erin, Tommo, Cardi, Carol Ashely and JJ must now bring on their A Game and help save Christmas the Brassic way.
"Bring on a heist at a winter wonderland, a fight with a man called Dick Dolphin, babysitting Chris's Aunt and the best Nativity ever staged."

The special features two big-name guest stars in Imelda Staunton and Greg Davies, with the latter warning fans about his attempt at a northern accent...
