I know, you've taken our jobs this morning
0:02
Thank you. Thank you for doing it. We figured you might need the time
0:10
We've actually been watching you all morning because, as Emily's about to tell you
0:16
Little George is a bit of a performer. You saw Little George during the GB News carol service
0:22
He was impeccably behaved, wasn't he? Impeccably well behaved. But it's all about appearances, clearly, for George
0:30
because last night he was suffering a little bit. And it would be up, sometimes, Patrick, up every 45 minutes
0:37
So there you go. He's a little sweetheart now, and he's having his little mid-morning nap while we're on air
0:42
So I brought him downstairs so we could watch both of you on a nighting up our Christmas morning
0:49
So he's actually been tuned into GB News for the last few hours
0:52
And you wonder how he's unsettled. putting him in front of us
0:58
Or we've sent him to sleep. But it is Georgie's first Christmas, so what's that like for the two of you
1:03
Well, he's dressed up in a Christmas outfit, which Patrick friendly gifted the family so that very nice Can you show us a little Can you show us a Is he in the Christmas outfit now He is It says my first Christmas
1:18
Can you bring him a little closer to the camera, please? It's television, you know how it works
1:23
He's having a nap. He's currently fast asleep, Mark. Oh, sorry, sorry
1:29
It's been hours, right? So... But, yeah, he's got... So we're all kind of getting ready for lunch
1:36
Emily and I are going to nip off to a church carol service later. Then it's back up north to see my mum and dad
1:41
and George's great-grandma tomorrow. So, yeah, it's going to be a busy, busy few days
1:47
That's wonderful. And have you spoilt him? I mean, I know you won't know much about it at the moment
1:51
but it's your first Christmas as parents. So have you spoilt him? Well, the presents are yet to be open, Dawn
1:58
Ah. So we don't know what Santa's going to be in this year
2:03
But we'll find out soon. He's still on the milk only. so they won't be enjoying any turkey
2:08
Yes, exactly. Milk only diet. We'll see. I mean, that was part of it
2:13
I think George was so excited to see whether or not Father Christmas came
2:17
that he decided to wake up every single half hour to check That normal So that was probably part of the problem there But can I just say I received something yesterday which I think is really touching I know that GB News viewers and listeners will
2:32
appreciate as well, because about this time last year, GB News viewers and listeners raised an
2:38
astonishing amount of money for friends of the elderly to help old people who couldn't afford
2:43
the winter fuel or their heating bills because of the cut of the winter fuel payment. And we
2:48
actually received this letter, I only got it yesterday from the COO of
2:52
Front of the Olderly, thanking GB News viewers and listeners, saying that your donations
2:57
of about £400,000 have gone directly so far to 55 old people in 29
3:04
different counties, including a 71-year-old man from West Yorkshire who was going to have
3:10
having to move out of his own home because he couldn't afford his bills
3:14
if it wasn't for the donations of GB News viewers and listeners. And they have basically put
3:18
plans in place and it's going to be distributed at the rate of £100,000 a year for the next
3:25
few years. So they just sent us a lovely letter to thank the GB News viewers and listeners
3:28
So I thought I would bring that to you because so many people watching this now will have probably donated to that So you made a lot of people very happy at Christmas Well done GB News viewers and yourself Patrick because I know that you know you over the last year or two
3:44
actually raised lots of money yourself with lots of different campaigns to help people out
3:50
And that is just incredible. So well done to you both. Yeah, that's the power of GB News viewers and listeners, Mark
3:57
So I want to know what your plans are after you leave the studio. What are you two doing for Christmas Day
4:02
Well, I'm having lunch with my mum. So, like you, it's a family occasion with my niece will be there
4:07
So we'll have across the generations, which is what Christmas should be about. And you've got some cats to entertain
4:12
Yeah, no, good Christmas with friends. So when I get home, I've got to shove the old turkey in the oven
4:18
and all that kind of stuff. But I'm certainly... I've had a couple of cocktails this morning
4:24
which has been good, but it's not nearly enough, which is why we're going to just in a second
4:30
open a bottle of champagne just to get into the festive spirit
4:35
Thank you so much for joining us. You used to have a wonderful, wonderful Christmas day
4:41
with the family. Safe driving and love to baby George. Hope he enjoys his first Christmas
4:46
Oh, so sweet, isn't he? You're both beaming. It's beautiful to see you
