With only a fortnight until Christmas we're starting to feel festive here at Red Button, so we're serving up some great gifts for you! Hacker takes on a traditional tale full of CBBC highlights and previews, while Kim Wilde joins Sara Cox to unwrap a sackload of sensational 80s holiday hits. As an extra treat, we're feeling the force with rarely seen footage from Star Wars at the BBC. There's also another chance to assist Crimewatch, and as usual, plenty of sport up for grabs.
