Christmas is not a jolly time for the Rev. I.M. Jolly. His wife has gone home to his mother, his parishioners are revolting, His Father Christmas has the kids in tears and his turkey is frozen solid. Is it surprising that the Swear Box is full? In this hilarious Christmas Special, the inimitable Rikki Fulton takes the outrageous, cynical, Doomsday-faced Jolly on a disaster-filled seasonal odyssey bringing mayhem and mirth from Christmas Eve to Hogmanay.

During a rugby tour of Britain and Ireland in 1888, a young New Zealander searches for his father who he has never met. While there he falls in love with the daughter of an aristocrat.
