A number of soap stars have signed up to sing Christmas carols to raise money for Leukaemia Research.

Cast members from The Bill, Emmerdale, Holby Blue and Coronation Street will take part in the TV Times Christmas Carols with the Stars event to be held at the Albert Hall next week.

Coronation Street talent Vicky Binns (Molly) and Graeme Hawley (John) will be amongst the guests to sing at the annual celebration.

Chief Executive at Leukaemia Research, Cathy Gilman, said: "We are so lucky to have so many well-known stars who take time out to support our TV Times Christmas Carols with the Stars event. This glamorous evening with TV stars will help us raise much-needed money to help us beat blood cancers."

The show will take place on November 29.
