This Morning are putting on a celeb-filled panto this Christmas 🎄
Starring Sheridan Smith, Joanna Lumley, Phillip and Holly!
Last updated 10th Dec 2020
Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes are proving there’s no bad blood between them and their Friday This Morning replacement Alison Hammond as they’re set to star in a Christmas panto special together!
Also joining the line-up are famous faces Sheridan Smith, Lisa Snowdon, Joanna Lumley, Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, and the panto will be a mash up of a number of popular fairytales including Cinderella, Aladdin, Snow White and others.
Joanna told ITV, "All of us who appear in front of the audience are painfully aware of the desperate situation of everyone who makes shows and plays happen: the chorus and crowd artists and dancers... and then backstage, choreographers and chorus masters, props and costumes and dressers, and writers… the list goes on and on.
"To be able to help them in any small way is a privilege and a pleasure; and I am thrilled that we shall be paying tribute to them in this sensational one-off pantomime. They don’t get any of the financial help that is being dished out across the country; so we must do our very best for them now when they need us most."
West End star Sheridan, who’ll be playing Peter Pan, said, The whole theatre and creative industries have been devastated by the virus and lockdown. Hopefully doing this Panto with This Morning will provide some of these people much needed work and give everyone some hope and laughter for better times to come."
Christopher Biggins also said, "I’m thrilled to be part of the This Morning Panto. In these uncertain times, where productions are being cancelled all over, it’s good to be giving the country a pantomime that they can laugh at and find Christmas joy."
The special will air on Friday 11th December.

TUESDAY 3 May
Today Holly has opted for a smart casual look. She's wearing a blue floral ruffle top, black trousers and black heels. What we're loving about this outfit is that you can dress it up with heels like Holly, or keep it casual with trainers. Holly's outfit costs more than £150 but we've found a high street dupe...

Ditsy floral contrast broderie ruffle blouse, Warehouse, £69.
