Alison Steadman, Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and Zoe Ball join Mary Berry in her Christmas kitchen

- WORDS: JO BERRY

Former Bake Off judge Mary Berry may have celebrated her 90th birthday this year, but she has no intention of slowing down, and is back in the kitchen merrily cooking and baking for her latest Christmas special, A Mary Berry Christmas.

"I've had so much fun this year cooking for my 90th birthday series and this Christmas special is the icing on the cake," she says. "This is a wonderful BBC special for Christmas where I'm very lucky to be joined by some very exciting guests as they help me explore Christmas traditions, and of course we create some festive dishes for different occasions along the way."

Joining Mary as she looks at those festive traditions enjoyed by families in the UK are Gavin & Stacey actress Alison Steadman, Gladiator Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and TV presenter and DJ Zoe Ball. "I wanted to enjoy our Christmas traditions, some of which are personal to each family and some that are enjoyed by the whole country," says Mary.
