Hi,
My question is that I'm an Italian national living in the UK with my family and our passports expire on the 23th of this month (November) but I contacted the embassy to renew the passport but they gave me an appointment for mid-January. Would there be any problems if my passport is expired until the date of the appointment? or would I be treated like if I was illegal? I've been living in the UK for 9 years and I'm Italian (therefore I have an EU passport).
Thanks!

There is no problem with the expiration of your passports if you notified in advance the embassy of the date. Keep a record of the notification in case a problem arises.

no, i do not see why it would cause you any problems? unless you were about to leave the UK for a trip ?you would then have problems, otherwise you are okay, it is sort of strange that the embassy would not process your passport sooner? that what consulates are for;
no, you will not be illegal,

Do not see a problem providing you have written confirmation of the aforesaid appointment for next year.
