Château DIY at Christmas

There's a festive frenzy in the Loire Valley, as Ben and Billie embark on an ambitious project to create the tallest Christmas tree in France. Meanwhile, Philip prepares the château for an unforgettable Christmas extravaganza, along with a surprise DIY project for when Janet returns.

At Janet and Philip's chateau, they try to complete their hallway transformation before their Christmas extravaganza. It's also all hands on deck at Chateau de Dohem for Wendy and Marcus, as they prepare for their first-ever Christmas-themed murder mystery party. At Chateau de Lalacelle, Terry and Ashley make their own snow indoors by bringing down one of the chateau ceilings, before they can switch on their 5000 lights to start Christmas properly.

At Chateau du Puits es Pratx, Tim and Sasha prepare for the final wedding of the season. A couple who married there 10 years ago are returning with their children for a Christmas they'll never forget. At Chateau des Vieilles Vignes, Nick and Nicole are planning a Christmas party but they don't have a floor. With concrete waiting to harden, there's just 24 hours before the party begins. Meanwhile, in the Dordogne, Tim and Krys have big plans for an unforgettable treat for Tim's son Owen, while also creating the perfect hot chocolate.

Before their annual Christmas soirée at Château Trois Cloches, Chris and Jolyon plan to transform their hallway. They'll need to work harder than Santa's elves to pull this off. At Château du Puits es Pratx, it's the day of the big wedding. However, with flowers, food and photographs to organise, there's lots to do before Tim and Sasha can say 'I do'.

Near Le Havre, Chris and Jolyon are as busy as two elves at Château Trois Cloches, trying to finish their hallway before their annual Christmas soirée with friends and family. Donna and Paul are going deep underground as they hold their Christmas get-together in the château caves. Over in Montmorillon, Belinda and Lee are spreading plenty of holiday cheer, as they serve up an incredible dinner to 60 guests and go chestnut hunting in search of the true taste and smell of Christmas.
