A quintet of Scottish schoolboys have become an overnight internet sensation and subsequently graced national television, all thanks to a spontaneous festive performance captured on a doorbell camera.
From a Falkirk Doorstep to Viral Fame
The heartwarming story began in the town of Denny, Falkirk, where five friends decided to spread some Christmas cheer. Jack Campbell, Dylan Thompson, Cameron Bourne, Liam Phillips, and Ollie Shearer gathered at a neighbour's home to deliver an impromptu rendition of Wham!'s classic, "Last Christmas".
Their performance, filmed by the household's doorbell camera, quickly captured the public's imagination. In the clip, the boys can be seen enthusiastically singing before stating their simple goal: "to get you in the Christmas spirit" and wishing the resident a Merry Christmas. The video was shared widely across social media platforms, amassing millions of views and launching the group into the spotlight.
A Live Television Encore
Following their rapid rise to online fame, the boys received a prestigious invitation. On Monday, 1 December 2025, they appeared on ITV's flagship daytime programme, This Morning, for a live interview with hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard.
Seizing the moment, the group from Denny didn't just talk about their viral success—they recreated it. During the live broadcast, they treated the hosts and the nation to another spirited performance of "Last Christmas", proving their doorstep charm translated perfectly to the studio.
The Spirit of Christmas Goes National
This delightful sequence of events highlights how a simple, community-focused act can resonate on a massive scale. The schoolboys' aim was purely to bring festive joy to their neighbour, an act that ultimately spread that joy to a national audience.
Their journey from a Falkirk doorstep to the This Morning sofa is a modern Christmas tale, demonstrating the power of social media to amplify grassroots moments of happiness and community spirit.
