The Young Offenders: Christmas Special | Preview (BBC One)

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and Mairéad (Hilary Rose), Sgt. Healy (Dominic MacHale) and Conor (Alex Murphy) are preparing for the imminent new arrival, with Conor wanting only the best for his mother.



Conor is still a novice at domestic housework, including washing, so Mairéad decides to give him lessons, clearing out his wash basket thoroughly – only to discover a handgun in the basket. Conor is holding the gun for a friend for a few days in exchange for cash.



It turns out that the friend is Jack Hammer, the only person in the world that Billy Murphy (Shane Casey) is terrified of. Mairéad insists that the handgun is returned to Hammer, even though it’s Christmas Eve.



The Young Offenders Christmas Special airs Friday 20th December at 9:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer.
