The 2024 show goes behind the scenes on Christmas shoots with some of our favourite Aussie celebrities. Cover girl Poh Ling Yeow takes us all on an adventure into the outback where she talks about her memories of Christmas and honours her late mum Christina. Mahalia Barnes brings her husband Ben Rodgers and their two gorgeous girls Ruby and Rosie into our studio to get festive while Zoe and Benji Marshall open up their home as if they are their kids Fox and Ever reveal how they will be practising gratitude over the holiday season.

And that’s not all!

We had a Masterchef Australia reunion in The Weekly’s test kitchen as cover girl Poh dropped in to give Julie Goodwin a hand at creating some delicious mango recipes – both sweet and savoury.

More alums from the hit cooking series were also on hand to whip up some fancy feasts. Khanh Ong got our party started with some macadamia-adorned mains while chocolate queen Kirsten Tibballs also enlisted his help for a delicious dessert of her own.

The Weekly‘s own Food Director Fran Abdalloui enlisted some small helping hands for her decadent ice cream sandwiches as editor Sophie Tedmanson rounded up the best gifts for young and old. As chef Warren Mendes whipped up some delicious crowd-pleasers, entertaining extraordinaire Chyka Keebaugh created an amazing table setting to wow our crowd – utilising pieces we’ll all already have at home as well as some nifty DIY hacks.

Plus there’s plenty more. Our former cover star Robert Irwin sends a special Christmas message from Australia Zoo while Dami Im gathers her own family around the piano to sing along to her favourite Christmas tunes. Add in some tales of hope and charity as well as some clever craft ideas and there’s something for everyone on this year’s show.
