Aled Jones visits Mousehole in Cornwall to make a traditional Star Gazey Pie with Michelin-starred chef Chris Eden and to hear about the legend of Tom Bawcock, the heroic Cornish fisherman who saved the village from starvation. Sean Fletcher talks to Sir Cliff Richard, who is celebrating 60 years in showbusiness and who performs his brand new Christmas song. Poet Lemn Sissay, who was fostered and later spent time in a children's home, tells Sean about the Christmas dinners he puts on each year for young people who have been through the care system and might otherwise be alone on Christmas Day.
