AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The follow-up to the hugely popular series A Moody Christmas. Picking up a month after we last saw them, it will visit the Moodys at various family events throughout the year. Like A Moody Christmas, each episode will revolve around a particular occasion that naturally brings them back together such as Australia Day, Bridget's 60th Birthday, or the Easter Long Weekend.'

'It's been 12 months since we last saw the Moody family. Maree and Kevin have put the Moody home up for sale, outraging Sean. He's refusing to leave his house and is squatting in his old room. Dan and Cora have returned home from the UK and, in an attempt to impress Cora's family, Dan invites them to Uncle Terry's Australia Day BBQ.'

Trent O'Donnell ) 2012 Australia : Jungleboys , 2012 Z1897997 2012 series - publisher film/TV humour 'Once a year we visit the Moodys as they come together to share this universally celebrated holiday, stuffed full of all the fun, fights, bad gifts, boring uncles, overbearing in-laws, shocking family secrets and bizarre eccentricities that any family who has experienced the melting pot of Christmas Day will relate to. Because while in theory Christmas is a time for family to share and celebrate, in practice it's often a day spent with relatives you hardly know, where dirty laundry is aired, family rifts resurface, strangers are forced to act like family, and celebratory drinks can disintegrate into drunken rows. As often happens at the Moodys...Each episode takes place on Christmas Day, or during the Christmas period, and 12 months passes between every episode.' (Source: Screen Australia)
