Jamie Tarttcan sing!
After playing AFC Richmond’s striker on the Emmy-winning series forthree seasons, Dunster surprises and delights the audience with yet a new talent when he croons the Christmas standard.
The actor, 31, can also be seen busting out some smooth moves as he glides across the floor and spins Waddingham, 49. He even lies on the floor to strike a cheeky pose and wink at the audience towards the end of the performance, at which point the award-winning actress playfully slaps him on the arm.

Recorded live at The Coliseum in London, the one-hour special and its companion album — both set to drop globally next Wednesday — will showcase Waddingham “ringing in the season with musical performances of beloved Christmas classics,” as she “shares her personal journey to this magical moment with anecdotes and memories about her own holiday experiences,” according to a press release.
And Dunster exclusively tells PEOPLE: “Hannah is now the Queen of Christmas, and to be a small part of her extravaganza was nothing short of a Christmas miracle.”
Last weekend,Waddingham sang a duetofLady GagaandBradley Cooper’s“Shallow”fromA Star Is Bornwith none other than herLassoleading manJason Sudeikisat his annual Thundergong! charity event in his hometown of Kansas City, Missouri.
“There is nobody I would rather sing this song with,” Sudeikis, 48, said before Waddingham stepped out, prompting a chorus of cheers from the audience.
The former costars — whose characters began as wary colleagues but developed a close relationship — shared several sweet moments together during the song, wrapping their arms around each other at the end and hugging before Waddingham left the stage.
Sudeikis then thanked Waddingham, as well as fellowSaturday Night LivealumWill Forte, for appearing at the annual charity event, which raises money for amputees in need.
