For now, fans can watch the West End star delivering holiday cheer in \"Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas.\" It was filmed at the London Coliseum where, as an 8-year-old, she watched her mother perform as an opera singer. Now her own daughter, also 8, is watching her on the very same stage.

For Waddingham, the experience was a full-circle moment. Or, as she put it, \"It was the weirdest kind of serendipity.\"

Hannah Waddingham's holiday special, \"Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas,\" is now streaming on Apple TV+.
