Talking ahead of the show Alan said: ‘I am completely thrilled to be asked back to host the Royal Variety Performance so soon, what a compliment and an honour!

‘To be able to host this magical evening with my best friend and TV wife Amanda Holden is the icing on the cake for me.

‘If I have half as much fun as I did three years ago, well we are all in for a real treat.’

Amanda said: ‘It truly is such an honour to be hosting the Royal Variety Performance this year. I’m still pinching myself!
