Oliver to deliver alternative Christmas message

Jamie Oliver will present this year's alternative Christmas message.

The chef will tell viewers that modern life leaves no time for cooking, according to eecho.ie. As part of the speech, Oliver acts out a 'nightmare' in which he feeds schoolchildren processed food. They proceed to go wild on the chemicals in the food, and run around the school.

Throughout the pretend nightmare, Oliver makes sarcastic remarks such as: "Try and get your turkey from as far away as possible…pre-portioned, pre-seasoned, and pre-shaped. Cook from frozen. We’re all too busy to be making real food. It’s pathetic.???

When Oliver finally wakes up, he gives his real Christmas message to the nation, explaining "If I could have one wish in 2006 it is to make sure that we really look after the beautiful kids of this country and truly make the nation a healthier, happier, cleverer place. I reckon we could do it.???
