“For me, it’s about seeing my mum and dad and the kids and Emily seeing them,” he said of travelling to see them. “That’s what it’s about, they’re getting very old now and it’s always an anxious time of year.
“I went to Australia earlier this year, I’m glad to be spending more time there because of my mum now. So, I try and go 3 or 4 times a year if I can now.”
He continued: “But there are no exact dates because of Emily’s work, you know when you work for the NHS you don’t just get to say oh ‘I’m gonna go away.’ We haven’t worked out the exact dates but we’re definitely gonna go between now and the end of January. If we go, we go as a family.”
The star recently opened up about facing a “bittersweet” Christmas.
Peter lost his brother Andrew in December 2012 from kidney cancer.

“It will always be a difficult time and it doesn’t get any easier.”
He added: “Milestones like this are a time to reflect and it’s a very emotional time for us as a family. It does make Christmas a bittersweet time.”
