He's back on Christmas Day

A two-hour special with plenty of festive messages and O'Grady moans. Plus Triples, celebrity greetings and Malcolm's mum's homemade Yule Log.

It鈥檚 the show he calls Christmas at the Workhouse, but to everyone else it鈥檚 Paul's annual special featuring messages and dedications from his listeners all over the world. There鈥檒l be an eclectic seasonal playlist, the return of the 鈥淩adio Two Choral Society鈥, and two festive Hollywood Triples.
He also remembers the actress and star of "Crossroads", Noele Gordon, who was born on this day in 1919.
Plus, for the first time, Paul taste tests Malcolm鈥檚 mum鈥檚 homemade Yule Log - naturally he鈥檒l be bringing an axe with him to the studio.
And, rounding the festivities off will be a few surprise interruptions from Petula Clark, Celine Dion, Luke Evans, Jodie Prenger, Tom Speight, and many more 鈥 specially recorded for the big day.
Presented by Paul O鈥橤rady
Produced by Malcolm Prince.
