SEWING BEE RETURNS FOR CELEBRITY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL ON BBC ONE

Sara Pascoe, Esme Young and Patrick Grant invite celebrity sewers for a festive Sewing Bee Special.

Strictly's Johannes Radebe, EastEnder’s Natalie Cassidy, Podcaster Rosie Ramsey and TV personality Penny Lancaster take on a pattern for a Christmas apron and turn a sack full of children's hand me downs into a novelty outfit for a baby.

Finally they create pop star inspired fancy dress to ring in the New Year before dancing the night away to a Dolly Parton classic.

The Great British Sewing Bee: Celebrity Christmas Special, a 1x60’ for BBC One and iPlayer, is made by Love Productions.
