Do They Know It's Christmas Yet?
Re-visit Woolworths, Top Of The Pops, Blue Peter appeals, bacon flavour Piglets and infuriating 14-day video timers. And meet some of the warmest, funniest characters since Only Fools & Horses, The Royle Family, and Auf Wiedersehen, Pet.
Thirty-somethings Tash and her brother Jamie didn’t mean to time travel back to October 1984, but bizarrely they did on the very day that Bob Geldof watched the BBC news report which moved him to form Band Aid and record “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”
Except their arrival caused him to miss it. So because of them, there’ll be no Band Aid, no USA For Africa, and no Live Aid.
Jamie wants to find Bob and put things right. Tash wants to go straight back to the 21st century – she has a 5-month-old baby waiting for her. What would YOU do? Go to your baby or feed a million others?
- "I laughed, I cried. Everybody needs this book."

Tash and Jamie are back, and no one could be less pleased than her.

Wish You Were Here Yet?
So, what happened next? How long can Tash tolerate 1984? And how about 1985… in another country?
The reluctant time travellers are spending one final Christmas together – although only one of them knows it. So, why the hell can’t that be straightforward, either? And do Raymond and Maureen need to be part of every single thing?
