As the cast perform a wonderful Disney medley celebrating Mickey Mouse’s 90th anniversary for Children in Need, Shona McGarty (Whitney Dean) delivers a “break-taking performance” as Belle from Beauty and the Beast. She is joined by Davood Ghadami (Kush Kazemi) as Gaston and Nitin Ganatra (Masood Ahmed) as LeFou.

Meanwhile, Lorraine Stanley (Karen Taylor) will play the Genie from Aladdin. There will be lots of great special effects on show, including a flying carpet as Tilly Keeper (Louise Mitchell) and Zack Morris (Keegan Baker) play Jasmine and Aladdin.

Tilly Keeper said: "It was a dream come true to be a Disney Princess for BBC Children in Need! We had so much fun filming the performance; it was such a special day. Let’s hope we all raise lots of money on the night for this fantastic charity.”

Zack Morris said: "Never in a million years did I think I would be playing Aladdin as I danced round Albert Square. I had so much fun taking part and it's such an honour to be part of something so special. I really hope it helps to raise lots of money for BBC Children in Need."
