Usually you can't trust a proud mother who says "oh my boy can sing" when everyone else around her says "no he can't!" But OH MY GOODNESS, John has a phenomenal gift! Oh and the way he hit that triumphant last note, it absolutely gave me shivers! Bravo John!
@@georgewade4600 Long story short! I was stranded in the UK during the no fly Covid pandemic. During that time I became aware and a fan of Michael McIntyre's Big Show. It was such a joy to have this come up in my notices for Christmas fare. At one point I thought Michael was going to be in costume to greet John as Mrs Doubtfire "Well Hello my dear!" as he came through the chimney. I can't begin to imagine the reaction of John's co-workers either knowing or unknowing watching him throughout his Santa experience as - Unexpected Star of the Show. He was truly deserving of the celebrity experience and the memory it must have created for him, his family and co-workers who perhaps saw him through very different eyes after his memorable performance. I've enjoyed it many times over in recent days.
OMG! John was sensational! What a voice! Michael had me laughing so much in the beginning and then to hear John singing at the end what a fantastic show from start to finish!
Beautiful and flawless tenor voice. And the choir, angelic. I hope John is touring this Christmas, I'll be there in a heartbeat. On a side note... I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! Just found it on RUclips, couldn't be happier.
By far, the best talent on the Big Christmas Show, and maybe in the whole series. Well done John, a fantastic performance of "Oh Holy Night". You coped remarkably well after literally landing yourself on the big stage like that - but it just goes to show that's where you belong. What voice, a total natural. Very proud. 😊 🎅🏼 🎤 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Watching from the U.S., just discovered the "Unexpected Star of the Show" bit and am loving it. John is so lovely, I was in tears from the time he came through the fireplace.
I've only just discovered this series of Michael McIntyre stunts - this man's voice brought a tear to my eye. I've watched a few now and they're brilliant. And it's so nice to see such positive comments.
One, good thing he did - what a performance we would've missed out on if he didn't! And two - I could just imagine Michael mentioning how much it cost to get the choir.
For a second I thought he might ask Michael if there was a backup plan. Loved the tone of his voice at all ranges and as close to pitch perfect as possible for a live performance. Well done.
Michael, if you read this, would you consider doing an unexpected all stars show? Bringing these amazing talented people together to perform on stage, it would be a awesome spectacular show.
Tonight, my first time to see this show. Wow, spectacular, funny and heart rending at times. So far I have watched four episodes, wonderful. One of the best, if not the BEST show on TV. I hope to see every show. Congratulations to all responsible and contributors. Great FUN.
My all time favorite Unexpected Star. Congratulations, John, on an amazing performance and thank you for sharing your incredible talents with us. Well done!
I love this concept, everything about it makes me happy, and inspires me, and I love how Michael McIntyre holds his breath when he asks if John will be The Christmas Unexpected Star. xxx love it.
I was glad to see him 'go for it' on that last chorus, on 'divine'. He nailed that note and really put the icing on the song. An evening he'll remember for his whole life.
One of the best in this series! I wish they'd end the vids with more closure (showing family & friends in the audience) rather than cutting at the end of the final musical note,
@dennis, why do you find everything out before me and hide it? Vanessa Shellyanne 🔑⛔🙈🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩💔💆🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️✌🏻☮️⚰️ A nice baritone voice for Carole to listen to. 🙌🙏🛐
The most humble surprisingly seemed to be the most talented on that show! Wow John one of the few who should totally go pro what a voice and what a beautiful present his given to his audience!
MsPinkwolf believe me, l have to stay at home for 2 summers because nobody can take care of my dogs and cats. and even if l go out, l don't stay more than one day so that l can come back and vvatch them
One, he's one of the cutest Santa's I've seen in a while. Two, John is one of the better unexpected stars I've heard. If not the best. Three, I don't believe for a second that this is not scripted. Nothing on TV is left to chance b/c the production is too expensive to have somebody say, "nope, not doing it. Thank you. Bye."
I think extensive research is done by the team behind the scenes. Long chats with family and friends to ensure that the person being surprised would be able to handle the experience and if it's something they would want to do.
Love the fact he cares about the dog. Beautiful voice and kind smile.
You can say he’s an amazing person when the first thing he said was- Who’s watching the dog?🤣🤣🤣
well don’t blame him i wud say the same lol
So true
👀😁🐶😁👀

So nice to hear a baritone. Lovely voice.
John needs to make a Christmas record. I would buy it in a second!
Best one of the o holy night yet !
Absolutely! Someone should get David Foster on the line.
"Who's watching the dog?" Best moment

This was the first Unexpected Star performance that had me tear up. John, please don't ever doubt your talent again. You have an amazing gift. Use it!
I understand that people self-doubt, but this gave me goosebumps!
Your voice is superb. Thank you.
Who's watching the dog he sounds a bit like Andy Murray
Incredible voice. So handsome, humble and cares about his dog ❤
OMG! John was sensational! What a voice! Michael had me laughing so much in the beginning and then to hear John singing at the end what a fantastic show from start to finish!
What a great voice and a Christmas hymn with the best message ever! All the best to you, John! May God bless you.

Looks beautiful, sounds beautiful. John is awesome!
Haha 😂his face when coming out of the slide 😆. .this is a well organized funny show 😅..he's a good singer 👍
Looked kinda fake, you sure he was surprised.
John is a lovely, genuine guy, but when it comes to singing, he definitely raises the bar, a stunningly, beautiful voice!
Watching from the U.S., just discovered the "Unexpected Star of the Show" bit and am loving it. John is so lovely, I was in tears from the time he came through the fireplace.
ABSOLUTELY FRIGGING BEAUTIFUL ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What an amazingly beautiful voice John McGill have. I hope to hear much more from him.
A Great voice and a beautiful rendition .
I've only just discovered this series of Michael McIntyre stunts - this man's voice brought a tear to my eye. I've watched a few now and they're brilliant. And it's so nice to see such positive comments.
Has anybody ever said 'no'?
I feel like he wanted to say no, but felt obligated to say yes lol
Good thing that he did tho, awesome voice!
I've wondered the same.
One, good thing he did - what a performance we would've missed out on if he didn't! And two - I could just imagine Michael mentioning how much it cost to get the choir.
For a second I thought he might ask Michael if there was a backup plan. Loved the tone of his voice at all ranges and as close to pitch perfect as possible for a live performance. Well done.
I’m not crying, you’re crying. Seriously I got chills hearing this guys sing. Well fking done!
Michael, if you read this, would you consider doing an unexpected all stars show? Bringing these amazing talented people together to perform on stage, it would be a awesome spectacular show.

What a voice! Beautiful is an understatement!
His voice is amazing
Here again to hear this angel voice!!!! Omg this voice.....!!!!!!
How he can't understand how fantastic a voice he has is beyond me
I was glad to see him 'go for it' on that last chorus, on 'divine'. He nailed that note and really put the icing on the song. An evening he'll remember for his whole life.
John - you have an amazing instrument, young man. You blessed us with a professional and moving rendition of that hymn. Thank you.
What a lovely, divine man John is. Stardom will follow, I hope.
One of the best in this series! I wish they'd end the vids with more closure (showing family & friends in the audience) rather than cutting at the end of the final musical note,
Fantastic voice my favourite version sounds beautiful
I have goosebumps 😍 his voice is stunning
John was truly brilliant on this episode, fantastic voice, I can see a contract coming soon with Simon!

A nice baritone voice for Carole to listen to. 🙌🙏🛐
@@anonymouspeacefulperson6199
Are you on something, or have you just woken from a deep sleep, 3 years in fact?
I love this show. I wish it was on in the United States.
so much yes!
James Cordon could do it!!!!
Carolanne Titmus James Corden is British but yano, all yous kidnapped him, cause you’re Americans and have to have everything lol
@@caimadog Excuse me all yano? yous? Your English grammar is atrocious.
Probably would better if you were an American By the way, I am British
Wouldn't work with Americans
Merry Christmas John, your voice is wonderful, and even as shook as it must have been feeling, you performed beautifully, great pipes on ya bud!
wow!!! John sings amazing and when he slides down, his expression was very shocked!
Just amazing best performance I've seen all Christmas
John has a really wonderful voice, and very likeable! Excellent job, love it!!!
You had me at, 'This is John'. Gorgeous.
The most humble surprisingly seemed to be the most talented on that show! Wow John one of the few who should totally go pro what a voice and what a beautiful present his given to his audience!
Absolutely amazing performance, John. You are destined for greatness 😊
Yay John! What great friends and family you have!
His voice is beautiful!!!!!
Wow 👏👏👏that is your hidden gift that needs to be shared around the world. Divine voice John👍🏻
Wow! One of my favorite renditions of that song! His mum knew what she was talking about! 😃
God, what a voice! Loves his dog! Bonus!!
🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂🎉😂😂Loved it when he said ."Who's " Watching the Dog .😂😂😂👏👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️.
Great singing voice
How wonderful, made me so happy to hear such a wonderful voice in these troubled times, thank you, John, God Bless you and yours and keep you safe.
The best thing is he is better than some real celebrities.... Amazing
John you made me cry with joy! Thank you for singing to the world from your heart. I also love singing this song, it's my favorite. God bless you.
"Who's watching the dog?" I cracked up when thats the first sentence he uttered 🤣
Beautiful Voice and I always get goosebumps with this carol O HOLY NIGHT.
Really fantastic
Most hectic goosebumps a singer has given me in a long while! Spectacular!
He can sing, give me goosebumps. ❤
This is a stunning rendition - he should go far with that voice
Absolutely brilliant - yes, constant rewinds
i didnt expect him to sing so well! He can def do it professionally what a beautiful voice!! and he's super cute! well done!
I love the show and the unexpected guest was first class what a talented young man
Great, great voice and he loves his dog too!
One of my most favorite Christmas songs. So lovely, sir, thank you.
So beautiful!! Amazing voice :)
His voice is so calm and soft like velvet. I could listen to his voice for decads. Reminds me of Cliff RIchards for some reason. Professional.
who's watching the dog?!
How pissed he'll be when he finds out.
A true pet owner!
'true' pet owners never go out?
MsPinkwolf believe me, l have to stay at home for 2 summers because nobody can take care of my dogs and cats. and even if l go out, l don't stay more than one day so that l can come back and vvatch them
Atallah Khalil train your cats on a lead best thing ever
🎄 GORGEOUS voice!!! 🎄
And my FAVORITE Christmas song!!!
HAHAHA...."Who's watchin' the dog?"..... hahah, well done.
Amazing!!! Loved his deep voice. He looked like he was meant to be up there on stage.
Gorgeous John! You look like a star 💫 and the voice of a star!
I love how I’m watching this in July!!
LOVELY tone to his voice! Well done!
Beautiful voice! What a gifted young man ♡
He has such a wonderful voice! Bravo John!!!
A good singer and a good human being caring about his dog 🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻
Stunning voice
Underestimating yourself is a huge human flaw. John... you are magnificent.
When he sings "hear the angels voices" all I could think was... I am I am hearing an angels voice right now...
wow, I wasn't expecting that tone
What a magical voice he got John your an amazing singer
Wow! What fun and John, fabulous, like a Christmas Angel! Oh, I think I’m watching this on 6/25! Half past Christmas Day 🎄🎅🤶🎄
One, he's one of the cutest Santa's I've seen in a while.
Two, John is one of the better unexpected stars I've heard. If not the best.
Three, I don't believe for a second that this is not scripted.
Nothing on TV is left to chance b/c the production is too expensive to have somebody say, "nope, not doing it. Thank you. Bye."
I think its loosely scripted
Agreed 100%. And his teeth? Goodness. He should make a toothpaste commercial because his teeth look like chiclets (straight, white ... perfect!).
Mi Picasso
Yes, his teeth are nice, but if he was in the USA he would need to get them whiter to be in a TV ad. He's just a lot of eye candy.
I think extensive research is done by the team behind the scenes. Long chats with family and friends to ensure that the person being surprised would be able to handle the experience and if it's something they would want to do.
When John asked "Who's watching the dog?" omg couldn't stop laughing 🤣
"Who's watchin the dog??" Might be the best unscripted line in Unexpected Star history.
OMG,!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️pure magic!,, BRAVO ,!!!!
wow wow love his voice so beautiful more please xoxo
