"I love this time of year. I'm the world's biggest Christmas fan!" — Phillip Schofield

As far as I'm concerned, 'This Morning' has always pushed the boundaries.

It's a ridiculously expensive time of year and if you buy something that you've guessed at and it's not right, what a waste of money. Far better to ask. And if you do it with three or four weeks to go, by the time it comes to Christmas you've forgotten about it - so it's a lovely surprise.

My wife Steph and I sailed on Royal Princess from Barcelona to Marseille in 2017. I'm the designated family car driver and there was something quite appealing about not driving on holiday but watching the world moving outside our window.
