Alongside the tour, Will has also shared details of his latest album '20 Years - The Greatest Hits' which features all his earlier hits as well as two brand new songs.

In addition to all the live broadcasts, an hour-long special will be broadcast on Radio 2 each Sunday from 7pm until 8pm featuring highlights from the previous week's performances.
