I've just seen this question.
I most definitely don't have Yorkshire pud on my Christmas lunch. I have it under it and around it ;-)
That's because I buy these

They're surprisingly good for a supermarket own-brand frozen product and cook to perfection. I simply fill one of them with something like this

and that's my meal done! (I might add some sprouts or other veg, and possibly some roasties too, but I often don't bother).
That beef in brandy dish is definitely my favourite for Christmas lunch. (I've had it for several years running now). However it was out of stock when I tried a local 'Cook' outlet so, unless I can find it elsewhere during the week, I might have to settle for one of the other Cook meals that I've already added to my freezer, such as

or

(I love 'Cook' stuff but I can't afford it very often. I always stock up with it at Christmastime though!)

^^^ Yorkshire pudding can be a starter, an accompaniment to a main course or a dessert, Sanmac.
In most of the UK, it's served alongside a main course (often, but not necessarily, including a roast meat). However in some parts of Yorkshire it's served as a starter, simply with a thick rich onion gravy. In some parts of Scotland though, it's served as a dessert, with custard!
Half a century ago, in my college days, I had a mate who lived midway between Huddersfield and Halifax, in the heart of Yorkshire. When his family had Yorkshire pudding, his father ate his as a starter, my mate ate his with his main course and his Glaswegian mother had hers with custard afterwards!
In proper, old-fashioned Yorkshire pubs (such as many around Rotherham), the landlady cooks a massive Yorkshire pudding each Sunday lunchtime, which is passed around the bar so that customers can rip large pieces off with their hands (totally ignoring any hygiene considerations!) and dunk them in the big bowl of gravy that's passed around at the same time. It goes superbly with a pint of Yorkshire ale ;-)
