"Away in a manger, No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus, Laid down His sweet head."

Join Diane Louise Jordan on Christmas morning as she wishes you a very Merry Christmas, and celebrates the Nativity story. Diane will be joined by guests, the Rev George Pitcher, Bishop Gregory Cameron, screenwriter Tony Jordan, The Priests, and the Rev Kate Bottley, who will help us to find out more about Mary, Joseph, the animals in that lowly stable, the Angel Gabriel, and the baby Jesus. This will of course be accompanied by uplifting Christmas carols and songs to bring you joy and peace, including special performances from the winners of Radio 2's Young Choristers of the Year, Florence Cain and Edward Hyde.
