BRIT Awards host Jack Whitehall has shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of inside London's O2 Arena, ready to welcome musicians, stars and fans for tonight's glittering ceremony.

In the photo, Jack is seen standing between empty tables, which have already been set with forks neatly placed on napkins while giant wine cooler buckets are placed in the middle of each table – ready to serve plenty of booze to the BRITS nominees, performers and other guests.

As Jack shared the glimpse on his Instagram story, he admitted he perferred rehearsing the gig in private as he wrote: "So much easier when there's no one here".
