The former 'EastEnders' star has played Fred Buckle in the BBC period drama since 2012 and he's now opened up about what to expect from the show when it returns for the annual festive instalment on Christmas Day - and he's says fans are in for a treat.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz and other media at the National Television Awards, Cliff declared: "There's lots of babies. It's raining babies at Christmas. Raining babies. So watch it on Christmas Day. Don't forget to watch it."
Cliff added of the Christmas special: "It's going to be a very, very special episode. The series is great. I think it gets better every year."
The show's team recently shared a first-look at the Christmas special by posting a picture of three of the castmembers - Leonie Elliott (Lucille Anderson), Helen George (Trixie Franklin) and Megan Cusack (Nancy Corrigan) - having a snow ball fight.
They added in a Twitter caption: "Christmas Special Exclusive: Snowball fight!! Our ladies prepare for the forthcoming festive season special in traditional winter fashion!”
They followed it up by teasing in a post on Facebook which read: "We’re delighted to confirm that the results of our team’s hard work on the Christmas Special is looking FANTASTIC, and we just can’t wait to show you more – so stay tuned to this page, as we start to get ready for our brand new special, and Series 12!!!”
