It's a meal that wouldn't look out of place in a Tim Burton film - an all-black Christmas dinner, where everything from the carrots to the roast beef is coal-coloured.
On the macabre-looking menu is black Devon rare roast beef, served with black heritage potatoes and a black beef dripping gravy.
Traditional orange carrots have been replaced with lesser-known black heritage carrots, while the standard sage and onion stuffing has been substituted with black pudding and a charcoal bread stuffing.

Incredibly, the Gothic twist on traditional festive fare is made using all-natural ingredients.
