How much alcohol is too much? Plus, journalist Sarah Vine

Almost two-thirds of us will drink more alcohol over Christmas than at other times of the year, according to a new survey from the alcohol-harm charity drinkaware. 18-34-year-olds are twice as likely to feel pressure from friends to have a drink during the festive period. My guest is Karen Tyrell, CEO of drinkaware, the charity which aims to reduce alcohol harm.

Take the drinkaware Drinking Check, a free, non-judgemental quiz to help you understand a bit more about how much you are drinking and the impact it might be having on your health. It takes less than 3 minutes, and it gives you a personalised summary based on your alcohol consumption.
