'Tis the season to be jolly, but unfortunately, many of us are spending Christmas away from our loved ones, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced new Tier 4 regulations for those living in London and the South East.

So with Saturday's bombshell news looming over us like a black cloud, we're all looking for something to keep our spirits high - and now, McDonald's is offering a very small pick-me-up to keep us going for the meantime.

You can now get a free portion of the fast-food chain's well-loved Cheese Melt Dippers for free today. Every little helps, right?

The helping of four breaded cheese dippers made with indulgent camembert, served with a tangy Tomato Dip will be added to your order for no extra charge if you order an Extra Value Meal on the McDonald's app.

The dippers are available for those who order to eat in (Tiers 1 and 2 only) as well as click and collect and drive-thru.

And with the dippers costing £1.69 on the menu, it's the perfect snack to add onto your usual lunchtime takeaway.

In other McDonald's news, the festive menu is now available to sample as we rapidly hurtle towards Christmas.

There's no turkey in sight at the chain, which have released a mouth-watering Double Big Mac for the festive season.

Perfect for those who are especially hungry, the mighty meaty burger has an astounding four beef patties as opposed to the usual two, and is topped with the signature Big Mac cheese, lettuce, onions and sauce - all for £4.19 (or £5.69 as a meal).

Another product to keep an eye out for is the Jamaican jerk chicken sandwich which contains two pieces of crispy chicken with a spicy jerk sauce, bacon, pepper jack cheese, onion and lettuce in a sourdough bun - all for £4.39 (or £5.69 as a meal).

Plus, for dessert, you can get your hands on a Celebrations McFlurry (because, what else would you want at Christmastime?!).

Looks like we're rushing down to McDonald's for lunch!
