It's called "Let's not fight this Christmas". I wonder if they will be giving copies to the judges?

I do hope there is a promotional video to go with it!!!!!

Really? John? Singing?

What's next, stripping for Playgirl?

Oh thanks, I'm sat here with my dinner!

You never know - with a few strategically placed sequins of course!

I have to admit, that's all I'm interested in

I'd buy it! (The video, not an issue of Playgirl). Although come to think of it...

That made me laugh more than the original post.

is this a joke>
If not i think its a bit of a cringeworthy thing for the pair of them to do.

I'm a bit confused. It says this includes John, Kristina, Christine and Adrian Chiles - is that among loads and loads of celebrities on some sort of charity single, or just the four of them. It seems so random I'm really struggling to believe it's a real story.

And if John's off on a cruise ship in Panama, just when exactly is he supposed to record his part?

Hi, Kenton Hall here... one of the writers of Let's Not Fight This Christmas. It's actually the One Show Christmas Single, by Chris Difford (from Squeeze) and the Decorations.

Here's some more complete information. It was an honour to have The One Show team involved and making it a reality.

"Let's Not Fight This Christmas" by Chris Difford and the Decorations.

It's released for download on December 8th, following a week-long launch on BBC1's The One Show (every night at 7pm from December 1st) and all proceeds from the single will go to Children In Need. It's a great cause and we hope you all

We're making a concerted effort to put a new, original Christmas song (about Christmas no less!) in the charts this year, and we appreciate all help and support in advance.

Visions of a very large, uncooked, wrinkly turkey with sparkly bits atop have just flashed thru my head...

Best of luck with it Kenton and hope you make lots of dosh for the littluns


LMAO MaureenG !!!!!!

Woo Go Christine :d

can John or christine actually sing?

/|\

We'll try! As soon as I can get MaureenG's image out of my head.

eerrrgghh...i've just finished my breakfast
that would be wrong haha but funny at the same time.
oh god, i dread to think what the song's gonna sound like.

pfft, off to school now. don't think i can get onto the forums on the school computers, i'll try though.

In Christine's case, who gives a toss if she can sing or not? There's a mute button on my TV so bring on the promo video.

Please don't use it as inspiration for the video

Does it matter? The production team will do what they do on X Factor, and drown out the rubbish singers with lots and lots of backing singers

Well come Friday... you shall know all.


*Cackles maniacally and completely inappropriately for what he actually meant*

Well if it's for CIN I will be buying a few copies! I think its a great idea - bring it on! Out next Monday!
I love Squeeze so if Chris Difford is involved it is bound to be good.

Chris Difford is indeed a gentleman and a scholar. The whole experience has been an honour to work on.

They could do a cover of the Peter Sellars/Sophia Loren number, 'Goodness Gracious Me' - it could be Christmas number 1. Maybe not with the Indian accent, though.
