Gordon Ramsay, Gino D'Acampo and Fred Sirieix reconvene after their European travels to rediscover the spirit of Christmas, heading to the unlikely festive destination of Morocco to see what the North African country has to offer in the way of culture, cuisine and adventure. The trio journey through the Agafay desert by camel, on through the mountains and end up deep in Marrakesh's marketplace and souks, with their trip culminating in a festive feast inspired by their travels, the people they have met and the experiences they have had.

The trio head to Scotland as Gordon prepares to cook a feast for the chief of Clan Ramsay and his friends. As they tour the country picking up ingredients, Gordon shows the others how to dress in kilts like real Scotsmen. They go in search of amazing Scottish beef, scallops and salmon and take part in the Ceres Highland Games. After gathering all their ingredients, they arrive at the final stop on their tour, Brechin Castle, which is the seat of Earl Dalhousie, the clan chieftain of Clan Ramsay.

In episode two, Gordon, Gino and Fred travel to France, where Fred has been asked to co-host an Oyster Festival in the beautiful Arcachon Bay, in just four days' time. They arrive in style, on a yacht from Sardinia and Gordon challenges Fred to a swimming race to the shore.

The series kicks off with Gino at the helm and, unfortunately for the other two, the wheel, as he introduces them to the way of life of his home town of Naples and the food of the region of Campania.

Gordon, Gino and Fred put on a spectacular X-mas banquet for the heroes of 2017. Staged in one of London's traditional banqueting suites we watch the reality unfold as Gordon and Gino go head to head competing to serve their own dishes.
