About this programme
Aled Jones is joined by Coronation Street cast members at St James Church in Didsbury, Manchester, to tell the Nativity story, with music by tenor Russell Watson, opera duo Jonathan and Charlotte, and British Army trio the Soldiers. Along with the nation's favourite carols, the service includes readings from Corrie stars William Roache (Ken), Sally Dynevor (Sally) and Shobna Gulati (Sunita), and cameras follow Julie Hesmondhalgh (Hayley) and Samia Ghadie (Maria) as they spend time with family and help their local communities over the festive period.
