- It's A Sin's Olly Alexander, Nathaniel Curtis, Lydia West and Shaun Dooley compete for the coveted Christmas Star Baker title, and the London Community Gospel Choir perform All I Want for Christmas.
- Olly Alexander, Nathaniel Curtis, Shaun Dooley, and Lydia West, who star on It's a Sin (2021), convene under the tent for a Christmas baking competition. In most confessing to be non-bakers, they will be relying on other things to become Star Baker, including channeling what they know from watching the show, some smoke and mirrors, and a little charm to woo the judges. For the signature, they are each asked to make a leftover Christmas pie. In this contemporary world, the leftovers may not be confined to traditional turkey and ham. Regardless, Paul and Prue, who admit not to be as judgmental as they normally would be, will still not tolerate a soggy bottomed pie. For the technical, they are each to make a chocolate yule log with multi-colored stocking fondant decorations. As non-bakers, they may struggle with the sponge and the concept of needing both to beat the egg whites to retain air and not to deflate that air when mixing in the other ingredients. And for the showstopper, they each will construct a three-dimensional Christmas tree made out biscuits and/or meringue, the two building materials having opposing requirements, biscuits which have a quick baking time and slow cooling time, while meringues are to be baked low and slow but will cool much quicker. Regardless, the baked items must be sturdy enough to retain their shape in construction, especially in withstanding weight, but not so hard as to be texturally inedible.—Huggo
