“I am tempted to see if the tree will make it to the end of #Lockdown3,” she wrote online.

Many agreed with her idea and suggested that the tree should stay up till candlemas, in February or until March if possible.

“It’s only 346 days until Christmas…never too early,” one Twitter user joked this morning.

Talking about the matter on the red sofa, Dan revealed his tree had long gone.

“We all decided as a family to get rid and move on,” he told his co-star.

“I decided late last night that mine is staying for sometime,” Louise said after making her decision to keep the Christmas spirit going at home during the third national lockdown.
