Synopsis
The COVID-19 pandemic has a lot to answer for. Series were curtailed, shows were delayed, budgets cut. Possibly the nadir of pandemic television was this four-parter, where cameras were strapped to celebrity dogs and left to wander around their owners' gaffs.
Initially just a playalong for the viewers at home, but the Christmas special upped what we might generously call the "content" from two gaffs to four, with the owners trying to match the houses/dogs to each other (and bluff when it was their own). Just commission Through the Keyhole and be done with it.
Key moments
The most nauseating camera angles since Lip Sync Battle UK.
Trivia
