Amongst all the usual fun, the boys play a Made Up Game that - in Producer Dave's words - was perhaps a little too tense, cricket satirist and statistician Andy Zaltzman pops in for a chat, and there's every possibly that Elis's Christmas was even bleaker than John's. Dig in. Email: [email protected] #elisandjohn
