Straight off the bat, viewers are set to get treated to an outdoor performance from Wizzard singing their smash hit ‘I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday’. Bradley Walsh will then provide some light relief with some festive antics.

Festive icon Sir Cliff Richard will appear on the show to make his famous gravy in the This Morning kitchen. He shares his humble thoughts on his cooking: “I can cook scrambled eggs, fried egg, and a grilled cheese sandwich, but I can’t really cook - it’s just gravy.

“My sister said once that her children wouldn’t have her gravy so I said I’d freeze it for her so she could cook it for them.” Sir Cliff Richard will also sing his Christmas classic ‘Mistletoe and Wine’.

Elsewhere on the show, an inspirational nine-year-old Betsy Griffin provides a message of optimism and joy to the nation after another tough year. It’s bound to jerk a few tears.

Finally, illusive couple Kermit the frog and Miss Piggy share their thoughts on the 30th anniversary of The Muppet Christmas Carol whilst providing a fair few laughs in the studio.
