“Getting Craig to join the line-up was a real coup as he’s such a legend. He’ll be performing his song Really Love with KSI but everyone would love it if there was time for him to throw in one of his classics.
"It’s been a tough year for the industry so the Beeb is going to make this year’s one-off episode as celebratory as possible.”
