Even Pudsey Bear got in on the action, dancing with The Jackson 5 and Moonwalking across the stage!

Macy said: “It’s great to be back in the UK supporting BBC Children in Need. The songs of Michael Jackson are so iconic, his music was and is such an important part of my life. It’s amazing to be performing one of his songs, being on a West End stage makes it even more special.”

Stooshe said: “Wow! Performing in the West End has been unreal! We love Michael Jackson and Thriller is such a great tribute to him. We’re so proud to be helping BBC Children in Need it’s a fantastic cause.”
