We know he doesn't like Christmas, but he's available and no-one else wanted to do the show. Perhaps live music from West End stars Jodie Prenger and Jon Lee will cheer Paul up?

Frankly, even we are surprised he agreed to host a Christmas Day show again. His regular listener will know how much our host hates Christmas, but as no one else was willing to present the programme, it's a case of make do. On the plus side, there'll be live music from West End star Jodie Prenger and S Club 7's Jon Lee, a couple of appropriate Triples, and a few surprises thrown in to help disguise the fact the show's presented by Paul The Grinch O'Grady.
