Cliff Richard to get everyone in a festive mood with special BBC Christmas show
Christmas is going to be extra Christmassy this year, because the BBC has commissioned Cliff Richard to perform a set of his festive classics and more for the yuletide season.The hour-long show will be filmed at St John At Hackney Church with various guests joining in the fun. As well as that, Sara Cox will interview the musician at Abbey Road Studios.Songs likely to be on the setlist include, of course, ‘Mistletoe & Wine’ and ‘Saviour’s Day’ – both of them Christmas number ones – plus ‘Millennium Prayer’, which is more of a new year song, but whatever.”I remember, as though it was yesterday, the three series – each containing thirteen shows – that I did for the BBC in the 70s”, says Cliff, slightly irrelevantly.
