Elis James and John Robins will be doing a special Christmas edition of their BBC Radio 5 show.

To celebrate their first Christmas on the BBC and the success of their popular Friday afternoon show, they are heading to the pub.

Along with some very special guests and a handful of lucky listeners, they’re seeing out the year with a festive flourish, as their last live show of the year comes from a central London public house in front of a live audience. Having first made friends on the comedy circuit over 15 years ago, Elis and John are loving their new 1-3pm slot on Friday afternoons. Not an obvious pairing – Elis is a football mad, upbeat Welshman and John is the Freddie Mercury obsessed natural born cynic– the pair’s on air chemistry and honest anecdotal content have gathered an army of loyal fans both from their time on the comedy circuit and on 5 Live.

The Elis James and John Robins Show Christmas Soecial is Friday 20 December from 1 - 3pm.

It is An Audio Always Production
