WHO’S INSPIRING US in December?

Carl & Charlotte

In a glittering Olympics for TEAM GB, the Wonder Horse Valegro – ridden by Charlotte Dujardin and trained by Carl Hester (below) – captured our hearts. With three Olympic golds and a Team silver under his saddle, Valegro will officially retire at a special ceremony in December. Though based on his starring role in GH this month, we think a career in showbiz beckons!

Kathy Lette

What a hilarious afternoon was had when writer Kathy visited the GHI KITCHENS to prepare Christmas dinner. As she admits, 'I use my smoke alarm as a timer.’ Step forward our Cookery Director, Meike Beck, with a festive feast that’s so easy, anyone can do it. Even Kathy. Turkey without the tears? You read it here first!

Keeley Hawes

At a time when many of us enjoy so much, it’s fitting to take a moment to remember that not everyone is as fortunate. So when actress Keeley Hawes asked us if she could share her experiences visiting a refugee camp in her role as ambassador for UNICEF, we were delighted. Find out how you can help support displaced families this Winter by reading Keeley’s moving DIARY and going to unicef.uk/ghwarm.

Susanna Reid

Susanna transformed from Cinders into our leading lady for the GH PANTO SPECIAL. And looking as good as she does, the GOOD MORNING BRITAIN star will most definitely go to the ball! Susanna, who spends much of the week sharing a sofa with Piers Morgan rather than Prince Charming, will be sharing Christmas morning with her three sons – not much chance of a lie-in there, then!
