Children in need

It'd be foolish in these post-Thatcherite days to argue that the state should assume full responsibility for meeting the needs of disabled people. It's not going to happen. We do need charities, but that doesn't mean we can't call into question the negative portrayal of disabled folk by fundraisers trying to rouse people to cough up cash

Terry Wogan!

Other than that, no I don't mind it. Only one night of the year fuck sake.

I loved the Eastenders effort. It was the best thing they've done for CIN for years. The Bill boys were quite good too

Oooh, that was magic A marvellous rendition of White Chalk.

*shivers*

Bollocks

Missed that. I was akip on the couch by 10, dribbling and farting

Hope it's on catchuptv

It was amazing...she also gave a heartbreaking performance of Silence. I strongly recommend you seek them out!

I'm being remarkably slack on actually listening to the new album at all

Blame the stress - although I have actually gone and bought other albums in the meantime

God - does this mean I don't have an umbilical connection to polly anymore??

I haven't caned it as much as I normally would, but that just cos it's so incredibly sad and full of loss, it takes me somewhere I don't always want to go. Bloody Polly and her bloody drama

She was wearing the dress from the album artwork last night, with her hair all curly...she looked in her own little world.

Seeing it another way, wonder what her happy songs would be like? Happy, contented polly? Nahhhh

Annie

Who are we talking about here? I didn't watch CIN at all, but surely it couldn't have been Annie of "Chewing Gum" fame? What a great song that is.

It's that bloody night of the year again. Anyone else feel like cutting their own throat

Yeah. I think that Children in Need really takes away the real entertainment BBC1 has to offer. Like erm.......

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

i missed the whole thing i watched dvds and had an early night, missed jools hollond though, will watch it off the website during the week

 

[free spirit]

I knew there was a good reason for me being out on the piss friday night

 

[DotCommunist]

Watched the good Doctors, then switched the guilt trip off. Did Billy Connelly get his genitals out again? or am I getting confused with the nightmare of comic relief past?

 

[Throbbing Angel]

Now they're showing a clip from 'Who dares wins' v.underrated comedy sketch show.

oh I loved that
which clip was it
I was asleep
CIN blank out remedy!

 

[elevendayempire]

haven't bothered to watch most of it but the Doctor Who scene was actually pretty good. (somewhere I've got the 3d glasses and off air tape of the Demensions in Time Eastenders crossover bollocks from @93/94 /geek mode)

The 93 one was a load of old cock. The one with David Tennant and Peter Davison this year was pretty good though.

So they polluted our television screens to raise £19m for 'the kids'

Let us say for the sake of argument that the population of the UK is 60m people.

If we all gave 33p each then there would be no need for this tripe
