It's an awesome charity. Over £5,000,000 so far. In 2009 they met £80,000,000. Are you sacrificing your Friday night to watch it? Better still, have you donated? Even better, have you raised any money? When are Take That on?! :clown:
i was watching it... but even i can't get stoned enough to make davina mccall and graham norton "entertaining" (i know they trying their best, but those two on the stage together make it look like Darwin was wrong) i didn't donate
I donated £50. Nuff said. Though like dollyfizz I wish I'd done a marathon or got my hair shaved off or something. You know? It's nice to get really into it. Maybe next year.
I always seem to be skint when Comic Relief comes on. I watched an hour or so of it, it's strikes me as somewhat bizarre to juxtapose comedy sketches with harrowing tales of dying children in Africa and broken lives in the UK. I also found myself thinking that there are underlying issues regarding political corruption, trade barriers, exploitation by multinationals, the arms trade and national self interests which are far more pressing in solving these problems, and which Comic Relief obviously doesn't address. Having said that, come pay day I probably will send a few quid their way.
