Robbie Williams entertained festive shoppers at a surprise gig in Covent Garden on Tuesday night.

Robbie, 40 – who recently became a father for the second time – performed outside the Punch and Judy pub inside the market for comedian Michael McIntyre's Very Christmassy Christmas Show which will air on BBC One on Christmas Day.

The 38-year-old funny man took to the makeshift stage wearing a Santa hat to introduce the Rock DJ singer who sang Wizzard’s I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day as the crowd sang along.

Making sure to stick to the festive theme, when Robbie finished his set, the crowd were covered in fake snow.

Jason Orange, who left in September, is also believed to be joining the boys for the celebratory occasion.
