Comedian Lee Mack has been named as the host of this year's Royal Variety Performance.
The ceremony is the first since the death of The Queen in September, and the late monarch will be honoured on the night with a special performance of 'Sing' involving Andrew Lloyd Webber, Gary Barlow and Gareth Malone.
Other music performers include Nile Rodgers & Chic, George Ezra, Sam Ryder, Ellie Goulding and Becky Hill, while Frank Skinner, David Baddiel and Lightning Seeds will reunite to perform 'Three Lions'.
Speaking about hosting, Mack said: "I was actually going to buy tickets for this year's Royal Variety Performance, so not only is it a real honour to be asked to host it, it's also saved me a few quid.
"I now just have to work out the logistics of introducing these brilliant acts and also rushing back to my seat to watch them."
The event will be held at the Royal Albert Hall on December 1 and will be broadcast on ITV later in the month.
