Good Morning Christmas

Rev Kate Bottley helps the nation celebrate a rather different Christmas morning with carols and Christmas wishes from the stars.

Reverend Kate Bottley helps the nation celebrate a rather different Christmas morning with carols and Christmas wishes from the stars.

With a specially curated mix of your favourite festive songs, and sing-a-long carols (some picked by Kate's young Nativity helpers). we have the perfect soundtrack for your Christmas morning, whatever Christmas looks like for you this year. Plus a special festive piano session from singer-songwriter Hannah Grace and live music from our Good Morning Christmas archive, with the House Gospel Choir.

Kate will be reflecting on the story of Christmas, connecting the nation through your messages, and hearing from some friends of Radio 2 with their Christmas messages.
