Christmas Bods gives two of you ten Christmas shapes and ten seconds each to become them. A Tight Squeeze is Santa stuck in the chimney, which means one of you kneels tall and square while the other lies behind with both legs in the air — only the legs, mind. You Turkey puts somebody on their back with their drumsticks up and the other curled into a plump round lump beside them. Rudolph is pantomime-reindeer rules: one head, spread-finger antlers, one bent-over back half, all facing left. There's a candy cane that needs a proper crook, a bow with a loop out each side, a wreath with an actual hole in the middle, and a star for whoever drew the short straw at the top of the tree. It's the pack for the afternoon after the big dinner, paper hats on, nobody fancying the washing up. Zeffie has seen nearly two hundred Christmases and is not dazzled by this one. Ten shapes, eight dealt a round.

How it works

  1. The card flips.
  2. You've got 10 seconds for the two of you to work out who's what and make the shape together.
  3. Bods! The camera catches it, Auntie Zeffie scores it and judges you.
  4. Share the result, or don't.
