This Morning viewers are in for a festive treat as the Christmas Day special kicks off in style with a click of Santa’s fingers.
Hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby magically appear in their transformed winter wonderland themed studio for the special pre-recorded show.
The duo are surrounded by an array of festive beverages as Holly poses the all-important question: “Has he been? It’s the most wonderful time of the year and we’re delighted to be spending it with you!”
Phillip then joins in: “Whether you are busy opening your presents right now, or you’re tucking into chocolate or having a well-deserved lie-in.

“And whether you’re with family or friends or on your own this year, we’re here throughout the morning.”
One segment in the show sees the pair collapse into hysterics as they try to master an awkward squatting game with Josie Gibson and Gino D’Acampo where they perch over a bottle to try and get a pen inside.
Another spoof section sees Aled Jones turn up as he thinks he’s booked for the show.

He says: “I’ve come to get the Christmas show on the road.
“It’s taken loads of rehearsal but I’m ready to bring – wait for it – Walking In the Air back especially for you two.”
But Phillip is then heard telling the singer that Leona Lewis will be the actual star of the show.
He says: “Um, Aled, I’m sorry, there’s a possibility we might have to stop there for a second.

“I’m sorry, but we’ve actually booked Leona Lewis! Someone should’ve told you.”
As well as Leona, other guests include Joel Dommett who will discuss the third series of The Masked Singer.
This Morning’s Christmas Day show is on Saturday December 25 at 10am on ITV and ITV Hub.
