Turkey is the tradition, but maybe what you want on December 25 is chicken. Fried chicken.

If you have absolutely no tolerance for Brussels sprouts or carrots, there will still be at least one KFC still open in Sheffield on Christmas Day.

The fast-food chain has announced it will keep the restaurant at Sheffield Arena open on the big day.
