Episode Notes |
| |
The original title for this episode was called "Drinkin" but was changed at the last minute.
| In order to make the pink liquid they took yogurt and watered it down with milk.
| This marks the second and final appearance of Kate O' Mara as Patsy's sister Jackie.
| Ads leading up to the special kept pushing the phrase "She's dead" said by Julia Sawalha building it up to an unknown ending. In the end several people wrote in complaining that they made the ads sound like they were going to kill off Eddie and didn't deliver.
| This special was billed as the season finale to Season 5.
| The air date for this episode refers to the BBC THREE showing. The episode was broadcast on BBC One the following Friday.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Gran: There always was more stuffing in your mother at Christmas than there was in the turkey.
| Saffy: Christmas is about doing things. When you've come to have the meal it will taset that much better knowing that you've done it yourself.
Patsy: Yeah, that's the theory they have at rehab. Yeah, it works for me. Patsy, would you like a drink? Yes I would. Well pour it yourself. Yes I will, thank you very much, well done. Cheers to me!

Episode Goofs |
| |
Watch Bo during the Staylene commercial as she moves off to do her own scene before returing to stand next to Marshall. The way she moves in and out of shots does not match.
| Look hard at Patsy's glass when she talks about pouring herself a drink. You can see a shine in the glass, showing she poured more than one glass of ale in a fresh glass, suggesting they did several takes of that one line.
| Some of the packaging material moves around when Bubble is wrapping presents.
