Thanks for posting this. Isn't Peter handsome? He looked really good.
I don't think there's a singer amongst the actors, and I found the song sort of dreary, but I really enjoyed seeing them doing their bit, and it was lovely to see them acknowledge Blanche and Betty.
Quite a few of the characters probably won't be present for next year's Xmas special; glad to have seen this.

Who were the 3 people in the booth at the end?

I know it's all in a good cause, and there were some cute moments, but what kept popping into my head was the line "Don't give up your day job".

I thought it was brilliant and there were some very good singers especially Kylie and Leanne. Well done all of you!
