2hrs 20 mins for the cooking? Did you ever watch only fools and horses.

The turkey of that size WANTS A MINIMUM of 5 hours cooking and id go for 5.45

If it's not started thawing yet, get out and buy a fresh one now mate. I think its about 20 mins per pound.

Surely a fishing thread? Want to put your family in hospital for new year????

Cook it upside down, that way the juices are obsorbed into the turkey's t1ts.

To cook it you'll need 20 minutes per pound plus 20 minutes = 5 hours 30 minutes at 170 degrees minimum.
If you have a fan assisted oven you can drop the temperature by 10 degrees max.

Ovens vary in their cooking times, but don't keep opening the door to look at it or it'll take even longer to cook.

You can put it in cold water to thaw it out quicker.
