    • Trivia
      Despite the smallish fee on offer, Robbie Williams was only too happy to co-write and sing the song featured as he was a huge fan of Raymond Briggs 'The Snowman' animated short film of the mid 1980s as a child and wanted to be part of something equally magical that children would still be watching at Christmas decades later. And despite being a major Hollywood film and television star, Benedict Cumberbatch's involvement was also because of his fond childhood memories of The Snowman.
