00:00 We've just been giving such killer vocals all night.
00:02 I'm worried that we're going to melt the audience's faces off.
00:06 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:08 Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:11 Feel very overdressed, mate.
00:14 Oh my god, one of my best friends
00:15 has got a Christmas special.
00:17 [LAUGHS]
00:17 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:21 Hey, guys.
00:22 Hannah Waddingham calling.
00:23 I am here at the glorious London Coliseum
00:26 to record my Christmas special.
00:29 Hannah Waddingham, "Home for Christmas" on Apple TV+.
00:32 Miss Waddingham to stage, please.
00:34 Why are singing carols right outside my door?
00:40 All these things and more, baby.
00:43 All these things and more, my baby.
00:45 That's what Christmas means to me, my love.
00:48 That's what Christmas means to me, my love.
00:51 The London Coliseum has been my home
00:53 since I was eight years old.
00:55 My mom started in the chorus here.
00:57 It has always held such a place in my heart.
00:59 And now I'm fronting my own show here.
01:02 What I would have given to do this show
01:04 in a pair of Birkenstocks.
01:06 [LAUGHTER]
01:08 Look.
01:09 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:14 I was so excited to get the most glorious people involved.
01:18 It's amazing to be part of this family.
01:20 It's so cool.
01:20 And Christmas is all of our family, right?
01:22 Wadders, we're all here because we love you.
01:24 And we think you're amazing.
01:26 A lot of Christmas elves running around just sprinkling
01:28 their Christmas magic.
01:30 It's quite mad.
01:31 There's a lot going on.
01:32 Lots of kind of choreography and flying rehearsals.
01:35 This is a lifelong dream for her.
01:36 And I couldn't be more proud of this woman.
01:38 And I can't believe she asked me to be a part of it.
01:41 I'm your Christmas miracle.
01:42 [SCREAMING]
01:43 Shh.
01:45 I have a beautiful mixture of friends.
01:49 The fabulous lounge swingers.
01:51 Please welcome the London Gay Men's Chorus.
01:53 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:55 And global stars, Mr. Leslie Odom Jr.
02:00 Hannah, you are making everybody proud today.
02:04 And so happy, so full of joy.
02:06 Thank you for this special.
02:08 Please welcome Luke Evans.
02:10 Hannah, my love, I've known you for a very long time.
02:12 And it's just a joy to be on a stage with you tonight.
02:16 Merry Christmas.
02:17 Sam Ryder.
02:21 You embody such a spirit of the craft.
02:24 It's a total honor, my friend.
02:27 How are you?
02:28 Hello.
02:30 Just seeing all these different worlds collide,
02:32 people in the audience, the people on stage,
02:35 it's the very best of times with the very best people.
02:37 We're going to support each other for the rest of our lives.
02:39 We are. We are.
02:40 And this is a big deal.
02:41 It is.
02:42 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:46 Thank you for letting us all be a part of it.
02:47 It's a dream come true.
02:49 Hannah, congratulations on achieving your dream.
02:52 It was lovely.
02:53 Hannah Wiley.
02:54 Hannah, we love you.
02:55 You're going to smash it, as usual.
02:57 Christmas.
02:58 Thanks for having us.
02:59 I'm feeling quite Christmassy.
03:00 Are you?
03:01 This whole experience has been the greatest pinch me moment.
03:07 It was an utter, utter pipe dream.
03:11 Thank you from my sparkly heart.
03:15 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:18 [MUSIC PLAYING]
03:22 you
