Meghan's 'insipid' Christmas special episode is panned by critics

Meghan Markle's Netflix Christmas special was savaged by critics today - some of whom gave the 'quite mad and a little bit sad' show zero or one star for its 'numbing content'.The Duchess of Sussex used the episode to share tips with celebrity friends on how to make crackers , as well as wrapping different types of gifts and decorating a tree.But reviewers in the Daily Mail, Times, Guardian, Telegraph and Independent were left stunned by the 56-minute show - and not in a good way.Giving 'With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration' zero stars out of five, the Mail's reviewer Annabel Fenwick Elliott said: 'It's the syrupy hypocrisy and our hostesses' deep lack of self-awareness that continue to make her and this show so unlikeable.'If only she could lean into her waspish, Type A personality - poke a little fun at herself, even - she could just about be endearing, in a Monica-from-Friends sort of way.'
