Thanks zankoku. Shame though!
The Strictly Pro dance is the only good thing on the show tonight imo. Well to be fair it's the only thing I've watched, I saw the line-up and it looks a bit rubbish. :/

Hollyoaks did a great tribute to Queen.
I loved Alesha and the Strictly gang at the beginning... I didnt see it afterwards although Tess looked..

Watched Alesha and the Strictly dancers, which we thought were great, but switched over to see Corrie and I'm a Celebrity - more fun to watch!
Great set with Alesha and the dancers but my favourite has been the newsreaders Vs Diversity. Brilliant
Those newsreaders steal the show every year imo!

He was the only one who got paid.

The money comes from the BBC, not from Children In Need so I really don't see what the problem is.
Terry also donates money to the charity and items for auction.
Loved Alesha performing her new single.
BTW, Wasn't the teenage girl with the disabled sister lovely?

Set pieces were the highlight as usual - "Priscilla" and "Jersey Boys" stole the show for me.
The Scottish only sections were far superior to previous years I thought and included Danny McGaskill (he of the stunt mountain bike fame on youtube) who has become quite a celebrity now and just back from Las Vegas.
Nicky Campbell was surprisingly good as co-presenter with Jackie Bird - highlights for me were the 'Blues Brothers' numbers.
Alesha was backstage most of the time but provided the energy in the presenting - told Ricky W to get rehearsing for Strictly tonight
Tess I felt was trying to upstage Terry and he was having none of it!
Spandau Ballet were better than on SCD and Tess went all starstruck over Tony Hadley
There will be loads I didn't see from Television Centre with being North of the Border though

Don't watch but raised money at work. Very grateful to Children in Need several years ago when their grant kept my daughters play group going through a very bad time. It allowed us to up grade the room, provide better vacilities and most important to the children lots of new toys. The group's still going now. I love Pudsey it's official!
Just watched it what a shame the camera man seemed fixated on Alesha I wanted to see more of the dancers not that silly bit of frippery stuck on her head. At least she's proved my other half wrong when he said she'd look good in a bin liner because that outfit was not a good look!

Why can't the BBC choose an alternative for once or, let viewers choose their own charities to whom they wish to contribute?
There's only so much money people are willing to contribute to charities and many worthwhile ones consider this and "Red Nose Day" have affected contributions.
But they are big "ratings winners" for the BBC so will continue to be hyped up by them at every opportunity.”

I think the fact that since again, over £22M has been donated, the public would generally disagree with you. If they weren't happy with the choice of charity, then they wouldn't donate, and that's fine, it's their choice. As has been said, there are plenty of charities out there that you can donate to as your choice, so do so. If you don't donate to CiN, then don't. I am happy with the work CiN do, and Comic Relief, so I don't want it to change.

That film project they've been doing there is such a cracking idea! Very impressed with that.

Have you got Sky? They've got all the regional channels somewhere in the 900s. We always flick through and see who they've got in the other places, as BBC Wales always show bits at different times to the main feed.
Oh, and I loved the dance
Got stuck watching BBC NI - utter crap as usual. They showed the Strictly pro dancers thankfully, but that was about it.

The "problem" is it's our money.
Items?
Yes a tie!
He really had to dig deep for that one, didn't he?
I'm smiling over this pm I've just received.
I think you should seek mental help, your family must hate you. Pehaps it would be best if you ended your own life now.
I won't reveal the young lady's name as she's only made about a dozen posts so she's probably is unaware of proper board etiquette.
It's considered OK to disagree with someone's views but it's best not to try to enforce your own by getting "personal," it tends to de-value your view.
Resorting to pms, to do this is in my opinion rather childish.
Most can separate "post from poster."
Some don't even know what that means and in the past others have said it is impossible (for them, presumably).
