STUFFED tighter than a turkey, 400 snowed-on fans were granted an audience with pop royalty Robbie Williams as an early Christmas pressie. And boy did Robbie Williams pull off a cracker - trilling Everything Changes and asking if fans want him back with Take That for a full album, two songs or not at all.
The full whammy got the biggest whoop.
Jesting about who'd brought him mince pies, flashing his tummy tattoo and looking cosy in a brown coat, Rob opened with Bodies.
Enquiring who the audience voted for in The X Factor final and who they wanted to be Crimbo No 1 resulted in cheers for Olly Murs and Rage Against The Machine - and surprisingly, jeers for winner Joe McElderry.
Olly fan Robbie then offered the chance to pick between Morning Sun and Starstruck for his third single.
"Let's do it like Eurovision," he quipped. "You gotta get your George Michael on for this one," he declared ahead of the second choice.
The crowd preferred Bob with his groove on.
No Regrets and the awesome Feel gave a flashback at vintage Williams.
Despite roars declaring him to be: "The world's most handsome man" Robbie refused to take off his back warmer.
"The mince pies have taken effect," he declared. "I'll take me coat off in two months. We've all seen the pictures of me as a big boy."
He won't need the woolie in LA this December 25 but during Come Undone Rob insisted: "I'm still your son", to all the shivering Brits.
Rock DJ came with the promise: "Next tour I'll be in the tiger undies."
Ooh-err.
Current single You Know Me's rapid accent up the charts post X Factor performance got the thumbs up.
"20 years and I'm still here," grateful Rob smiled before bursting into the lush ballad.
After weeks of changing Angels to "I'm loving ninjas instead", Robbie still had to re-start and check his lyrics book to get the original off without a hitch.
But it only make the crowd love him more.
