The story begins when the raccoon looks curiously through a window to see a family excitedly decorating a Christmas tree - when their dog accidentally smashes the little boy's favourite monkey Christmas decoration. 'Our hope is that by bringing back the toy donation points we are making it easier, for those customers who can, to donate directly to local good causes by giving them a small way to make a real difference and help those that need it the most.'

At a party somewhere else, Tan France — the fashion expert from Netflix hit Queer Eye — is wearing a white bow tie But he draws the line at playing board games. Enough is enough, he thinks, before throwing a tantrum and said game into a tropical fish tank.
