Default Yeah I know that they do a fabulous job.........

..... for deserving causes and the money is desperately needed and almost certainly spent fairly efficiently etc etc etc.

But won't I be glad when Comic Relief is over. Quite why I should laugh at some overweight kid chundering along the pavement on a Space Hopper to get to school is beyond me. Oh well.

Sorry

Sorry my PC has crashed so I was unable to read posts 9 & 10

I think they should liven the show up a bit by, for example, by kidnapping Sir Fred Goodwin.

Then borrow some Guantanamo ******** Tweekers from MI5 and "persuade" Goodwin to write out an irrevocable Standing Order for say £649,999 per year to Comic Relief. Would be good entertainment. I'd suggest Rick Mayall as the persuader.

It all look quite self masturbatory to me, why don’t they cancel it and just give all the production costs to charity instead – prob reach more than the 40 million raised

shipping 20 fvckwit celebs up mt Kilamanjaro doesnt come cheap

(although I would do Cheryl Cole)

now where is my glass of prosecco

I was thinking the same, Jonathan Ross on 2 million a year for a being a smug tosser (ok, he is sometimes slight funny) that is creepy with female guests pleading me to hand over cash, ok, will donate a tenner as long as I don't have to watch Lenny Henry with small black skinny kids, the juxtaposition there reminds me of the fact that starving kids are funnier than Lenny Henry.

I agree. Let's see them getting their hands in their pockets ! If they open their wallets I'll tell a few jokes and make people laugh !!!

...so why not get the MTP to donate the money directly to charity and GB avoid some carbon footprint by staying at home - but more importantly, leave the Z-list "celebs" to their appropriate obscurity?

the pathos of all this is that the money talked about is peanuts in relation to the help it gives

and yet we've spent trillions subsidising the mooring fees of bankers yachts harboured in Monaco

It costs 2k to climb kilimanjoro. So, 20 Z list celebs X 2k = 40k.

Radio 1 alone raised 1.5 million the last I heard.

I'd happily climb the mountain if I knew I could turn a similar "profit".
