Hideous thing.
I also hate the way the BBC try to make you feel conditioned into donating/fundraising.
There is something so insincere about the whole thing.
It seems to be these days.
It may provide money for good causes and I still put money in buckets, but the night's telly is very trashy.
It's going to involve Peter Andre isn't it
I can remember CIN shows in the 1990s when it did feel like a special occasion the BBC was proud of and accordingly put some effort into, but nowadays it just seems that the show - and perhaps even the cause - is run as a bit of a lazy afterthought these days.
As others have said, the published line-up isn't exactly inspiring.
Oops, just re-read it and seen the 'more acts to be announced shortly' bit.
19 November.
Good.
I know that I am definetly out that day so can easily avoid it:cool:
Fraid so,:( at least it's always on Friday's so i can go to the pub, & avoid this trash.:D
Half of it will be a repeat of the other half as per.
Does Wigon pay for his own corset for this or does it come out of licence payer’s money I wonder.....?
In other words its a night of a thousand 'popstars' & various gonks from threadbare soap operas & daytime TV trying to get those who can least afford it to find money.
When they get Terry Wogan banging on 10/11 Downing Street with a collection tray & they get Norton , etc stood outside the headquarters of Eon, Npower , EDF , British Gas , Scottish Electric, United Utilites , tesco, Sainsburys, Asda , then we might get somewhere. What these firms avoid in paying in tax / overcharging people would more than pay for deprived children to be given a better future.
Tescos could donate the entire takings of the Friday & still not feel it. Let alone what their channels isle based interenet business avoids in VAT
Why are the BBC's politics team not out with the begging bowl around the houses of parliament. Its not like the MP's / House of Lords are pleading poverty.
'Popstars In Need' is just a threadbare night of two bit turns getting a lot of free promotion for very little in return , along with the corparate shysters trying to fool us.
Comic Relief tend to have a far better line up of entertainment for an evening. Though I'm sure I would get bored of that too if it was on every March.
I have always favoured the idea of Children In Need and Comic Relief alternating each year.
They are like flies around shite them 4.... What a crock of shit. I know it is charity but that lineup is dreadful.
PMSL
I'm going to watch it in disgust
