Christmas Special

Michael plays the best festive music that listeners may have forgotten about.

Put another log on the fire, grab a cup of tea or something spicier, reach for that all-important mince pie and put your feet up, as Michael Ball brings you the best festive radio show of the year.

He'll be digging deep into his Santa's sack to bring you some of the best music throughout the decades! He'll also hopefully be providing some unknown classics that you haven't heard in years, as well as adding another great artist into the Singers Hall of Fame.
