I love singing, it&amp;#039;s always been one of my dreams. Everyone&amp;#039;s getting in the Christmas spirit.&amp;quot; The track has been given odds of 6/1 to top the Christmas chart, behind X Factor favourite Marcus Collins, whose chances are highest at 3/1.  Cast members have also recorded their own unique version of the show&amp;#039;s theme song &amp;#039;The Only Way Is Up&amp;#039;, which will serve as the single&amp;#039;s B-side. The original, by Yazz and The Plastic Population, spent five weeks at number one in 1988. All profits from the single will go to Text SANTA, a major new charity initiative set up by ITV, which aims to raise money and awareness for a group of well deserving charities, including Crisis, Samaritans and Great Ormond Street Hospital.
