As it happened: 2011 Red Nose Day

• 18:30

  Hello and good evening fact fans!

• 18:30

  Today we are gathered to watch the Red Nose Day telethon for Comic Relief, starting in just under half an hour.

• 18:31

  If you want to join in the fun, we have live commenting available here: https://sidepodcast.com/dashboard or you can head to the direct thread: https://sidepodcast.com/post/live-red-nose-day-2011

• 18:32

  This year there are three different Red Noses, known as Honkus, Chucklechomp and Captain Conk.

• 18:32

  Who comes up with these names?

• 18:34

  The Comic Relief show starts at 7pm GMT on BBC 1 and there is quite a lot to keep you entertained.

• 18:35

  Miranda Hart, Ruby Wax and Claudia Winkleman will take on the Masterchef challenge.

• 18:36

  The cast of Inbetweeners, Outnumbered and Doctor Who all have surprises up their sleeve.

• 18:36

  In terms of music, we have George Michael, the ever-present Take That, JLS and the official single from The Wanted.

• 18:36

  And love him or hate him, Smithy from Gavin & Stacey is back for a sketch.

• 18:38

  This is Honkus.

• 18:39

  This is Captain Conk.

• 18:39

  And finally, Chucklechump. What a lineup.

• 18:40

  Comment from Chris: While we're waiting for the show to start, was anyone watching the Chris Moyles record attempt? Chris and Comedy Dave (his partner in crime) raised over 2 million pounds while hosting a radio show for 52 hours (a Guinness world record)

• 18:40

  There have been a lot of impressive feats happening by the celebrities.

• 18:40

  Helen Skelton from Blue Peter walked a high wire between two chimneys at Battersea Power Station.

• 18:41

  David Walliams took part in 24 hours worth of panel shows, streamed live online.

• 18:41

  Scott Mills took a host of other famous people with him across a desert trek in Africa, with blistering temperatures and the constant threat of snakes and scorpions.

• 18:43

  Ant & Dec were challenged to gatecrash as many TV shows as they could, stealing bits and bobs for auction as they went.

• 18:46

  On TV, there's been the usual Let's Dance where celebrities make a fool of themselves, and a new Glee-style competition for kids to sing their hearts out.

• 18:48

• 18:53

  Tweet from @rackspaceemea: What a day of fun, PJs, squashing into a Mini, cake stall , games competitions incl. pool, table tennis etc raising £600 for comic relief

• 18:54

  Rackspace are our Factbyte Factbox hosts, and they really did fit 17 people in a mini: http://twitpic.com/4an6lm Unbelievable!

• 18:55

  Tweet from @KatyPerry: Doing something VERY special 4 @rednoseday! BID on 1 of my ORIGINAL BLUE WIGS: http://bit.ly/em9JYY . YOUR contribution will make a #CHANGE!

  If you're a fan of such things.

• 18:57

  In case you were wondering, we opted for a Honkus: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sidepodcast/sets/72157626157780899/

• 18:57

  Along with a fabulous t-shirt featuring William Shakespeare, plus a Giggler. Hit it and it makes a rather disturbing cackle.

• 18:58

  All these things and much more is available on the shop: http://shop.rednoseday.com/

• 18:58

  Red Nose Day 2011 has begun.

  It's never too early to give out the numbers.

• 19:02

  First hosts of the evening: Claudia Winkleman and Michael McIntyre.

• 19:02

  Claudia is in a very vivid red dress, whilst Michael is rocking the red shirt.

• 19:06

  They've just done a coming up montage, and there's far too much for me to type!

• 19:06

  Claudia points out that Comic Relief have taken advice on the situation in Japan and have not yet launched an appeal.

• 19:08

  David Tennant visits some children in Africa who are or are going blind - most of whom could have an operation to give them sight.

• 19:08

  Comic Relief cash is funding a project that finds blind children in deserted areas, and getting them medical attention as soon as possible.

• 19:09

  Comment from Mr C: i will donate money not to have to watch an eye operation. eek.

• 19:10

  One operation costs £150. It doesn't take many people donating to get to that figure, and a child gets their sight back.

• 19:10

  £150 for children, £34 for adults.

• 19:12

  TV moment - Outnumbered meets Andy Murray.

• 19:12

  The little girl has a panda hat on, so of course I approve.

• 19:14

  The oldest child says Andy Murray doesn't look like Andy Murray because he's smiling too much. He wants to take a photo but would prefer him to look more emo.

• 19:16

  Ultimately, the children have injured him, and Andy limps off into the distance.

• 19:16

  Also, Murray appears to know about the winning=British, losing=Scottish thing. Awkward.

• 19:17

  Alesha Dixon is visiting a school who do an excellent amount of fundraising. There appear to be a lot of painted faces.

• 19:19

  The DOCTOR WHO bit!!

• 19:20

  Amy is not allowed to fly the TARDIS, but Rory is... he has a spanner in his hand, and some crazy goggles on.

• 19:21

  There's a TARDIS inside the TARDIS!

• 19:22

  And now there's another Amy. A mini installment, to be continued later. Cliffhanger!

• 19:23

  More from David Tennant discussing cataract operations in Africa.

• 19:24

  Tweet from @DaveJohnsonUK: @McInTweet maybe you and Claudia should release your Dr. Who theme to raise money for @rednoseday

• 19:24

  They did do a pretty spectacular rendition of the famous theme tune.

• 19:25

  I have lost the tweet now, but I just saw it fly by that someone had spotted Richard Bacon in the Comic Relief audience.

• 19:26

  Comment from Alex Andronov: The amazing thing is that one of the big problems is that they can't find the people who need the operation. There is so little infrastructure and so many people don't know there are chances for help.

• 19:27

  Doctor Who Part II.

• 19:29

  Amy II is the Amy from the future, and she appears to be flirting with herself. But.. now there are two Rorys and it's completely confusing!

• 19:30

  It all seemed to sort itself out in the end. Phew.

• 19:31

  Tweet from @paultrueman74: Lumme. I've just realised #rednoseday is 24 years old. 2 things: 1) I am getting really quite old 2) That is A LOT of cold baked beans. #fb

• 19:32

  Claudia and Michael. Great chemistry.

• 19:33

  The Wanted - Gold Forever.

• 19:36

  At the height of Comic Relief, there are 250 calls per second. Goodness me.

• 19:37

  There are a couple of audio bits and pieces you can enjoy. Ricky Gervais has recorded a special podcast with his chums: (iTunes link) http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-ricky-gervais-podcast/id135789411

• 19:39

  And Steve Wright (in the afternoon) has put together some celebrity factoids: (iTunes link) http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/steve-wrights-red-nose-day/id424616739

• 19:39

  A film about Lauren in the UK, who cares for her mum.

• 19:42

  Apparently, the average age of a young carer is just 12. Comic Relief cash goes to giving them a break from everyday life.

• 19:42

  Next amusing film, Claudia, Ruby Wax and Miranda Hart are heading to Number 10 Downing Street for a Masterchef special.

• 19:44

  Choice quotes - Miranda: "This is not an exaggeration or a lie, I would say I've never cooked.'

• 19:44

  Ruby: "Competition doesn't come into it, I just wanted to see Downing Street."

• 19:44

  Claudia: "I'm obsessed with Masterchef. I'm obsessed with Greg."

• 19:44

  They are cooking lunch for a Masterchef judge, some previous winners, and the actual Prime Minister.

• 19:45

  They're making crab.

• 19:45

  Ruby Wax has just sneaked off to call Nigella and get some tips on the crab.

• 19:45

  Claudia is making Chilli con Carne.

• 19:46

  Miranda is making a "messy trifle." She literally has never cooked before and is amused that her first ever dish is for the Prime Minister.

• 19:47

  If Masterchef was actually like this, I would watch!

• 19:48

  Comment from Alex Andronov: They are so hopeless this makes me think of Mr C making muffins

• 19:48

  I don't want to be fussy, but I do think Claudia should have tied up her hair. Her chilli is a bit hot. Ruby says: "Too hot? It's hell in there." The judges eyes almost popped out when he tasted it.

• 19:48

  Comment from Mr C: hey, i've cooked more than miranda.

• 19:49

  The Prime Minister is in the kitchen, checking up on his staff!

• 19:49

  David Cameron: "My expectations were quite low, and they've fallen."

• 19:50

  A film of Helen Skelton doing the High Wire walk.

• 19:51

  She's there in the studio, in a pretty dress.

• 19:52

  Helen's Hire Wire walk raised: £253,789.

• 19:53

  A quick flashback to the Masterchef thing - Michel isn't keen on Claudia's dish.

• 19:55

  Helen Skelton, High Wire Girl.

• 19:56

  A sad film about a family in Africa, where the mum is ill, and Esther, aged 9, has to take care of the children.

• 19:58

• 20:00

  Two members of McFly are singing a version of All About You with the words changed to Thank You Oxfam.

• 20:01

  The shops are selling the Red Nose's that we discussed earlier. Michael McIntyre called them "remarkably uncomfortable." And he's quite right!

• 20:02

  A montage of the Desert Trek challenge, featuring nine people. Can I get them all?

• 20:02

  Scott Mills. Lorraine Kelly. Kara Tointon. Peter White from Radio 4.

• 20:02

  Craig David. Olly Murs.

• 20:02

  I just missed out Dermot O'Leary, Nadia Sawalha and Ronnie Ancona. 6 of 9 is not bad.

• 20:03

  Comment from Alex Andronov: The average life expectancy in the world is 67.2 years. In Botswana it is 31.6 years.

• 20:05

  Ronnie and Lorraine both have wicked red dresses on. The rest have gone for more traditional muted shades.

• 20:05

  The Trekkers raised: £1,375,037.

• 20:06

  Totaliser

  £5,797,110

• 20:06

  That totaliser is clearly not exciting enough. We need to go old school and programme some fireworks in there.

• 20:07

  More than a million pounds will be going to the sight projects, so a LOT of children and adults will get their sight back.

• 20:08

  The next presenters will be Graham Norton and Davina McCall. They've got a lot to live up to.

• 20:10

  Coming Up: a Downtown Abbey special, a Harry Hill sketch, Take That, a Miranda sketch, and Alan Partridge returns to Comic Relief.

• 20:11

  Graham and Davina are discussing Let's Dance for Comic Relief.

• 20:12

  Let's Dance raised: £1,201,832.

• 20:14

  A film montage of the trekkers visiting people getting their sight back in Africa.

• 20:14

  Now, Harry Hill does Autumnwatch.

• 20:18

  There are lots of celebrities in trees and hiding in hedges.

• 20:19

  The Wanted versus Olly Murs. FIGHT!

• 20:20

  Tweet from @FallenAngel2106: My daughter has made her 1st donation to @rednoseday - I've told her she's just spent her next 6mths of pocket money, she doesn't mind #RND

• 20:21

  A short film about some of the things the money helps with - particularly health and education.

• 20:24

  Now they're doing a bit which I believe is from Norton's show. He's getting celebrities in a red chair to tell stories about their life.

• 20:24

  Kirstie Allsop is first. I may have overstated it when I said celebrity.

• 20:27

  Thandie Newton next. Slightly more famous than Ms Allsop.

• 20:28

  Then there was Richard Bacon, but he didn't even get a chance to speak.

• 20:28

  Then there was Richard Bacon, but he didn't even have a chance to speak.

• 20:28

  Now, we're back to Masterchef.

• 20:28

  Ruby Wax is serving her meal.

• 20:29

  They have found some crab shell. David Cameron says it's alright, the crab is nice.

• 20:29

  Prime Minister says it was very nice and he ate the lot. The other two were not so keen on the crab stuff.

• 20:30

  Claudia is next.

• 20:30

  They're all staring at the plate. Claudia has served the chilli con carne with jacket potato and salad.

• 20:31

  David Cameron: "Oooh, it's quite hot." Will his eyes bulge like Michel?

• 20:31

  Apparently this is his wife's speciality, so Claudia has a lot to live up to.

• 20:31

  Claudia, afterwards: "They liked it! They weren't physically ill, how is that possible?"

• 20:32

  Miranda serves her trifle.

• 20:32

  There are some gummy bears in the middle, and hundred and thousands sprinkled on top.

• 20:32

  There's a lot of sherry in it.

• 20:33

  David Cameron: "We all loved it. Very alcoholic though. I feel like I've got to go and lie down." Afraid not, you've got a country to run, my love.

• 20:33

  He leaves the others to discuss who wins.

• 20:34

  Michel: "I was really looking forward to this, when I got up this morning. Then after ten minutes in the kitchen with you, I thought why am I doing this? Thankfully, you turned it around."

• 20:34

  The winner is: MIRANDA!

• 20:36

  Blue are saying thank you to Maltesers, who have been selling special packs and fundraising in lots of crazy ways.

• 21:04

  Pondering if this might be an entire episode of Eastenders?

• 21:06

  Mixed reaction on Twitter - some wondering where the Comic Relief is in Eastenders, others approve of highlighting the Sexual Exploitation cause.
