Comic relief

[Bottlesoflove]

Can we please have a comic relief thread purely to share the take that live if anything else? (We'll have more of them please BBC)

I love Ed Sheeran. I think he's a good person.

Has the Stephen Hawking sketch been on yet?

Gotta love Ed. He has a heart of gold.

I am incredibly moved by some of the stories. It makes you realise how lucky we are just to live where we do.

Russell Howard seemed like he didnt give a shit and just did it because he had to

I found Russell's segment quite moving.

Russell didn't seem moved, really. I wonder how much he's donating, and the other celebs?

Biscuits - really?????!!

There was no emotion at all, ed sheeran cried and the mum and daughter who went to the dump site with the family both did. Russell seemed pretty scripted

That's a bit harsh on Russell, everyone has different ways of coping with things like that. I'd probably be the same as him, because as soon as I displayed the tiniest bit of emotion the floodgates would open and I would be no good to anyone.

I gave up on the biscuits when bourbons were beaten by custard cream...wtf?

This is not a vintage year it it?

Though the Liberian children are breaking my heart over and over and over again.
I suspect that little girl who died is around the same age as DS2 which somehow makes it harder to bear.

I've been watching for an hour but haven't found anything funny yet. The films from Liberia are so hard to watch though.

Thought TT were great, love them. I hate to say it, but the French and Saunders bits have been total cringe - not funny AT all. The films, as always, are incredibly sad and, ultimately, that's what makes people cough up.

It's like a 6th form school production

More Year 6 really.

I haven't been watching closely but it does seem a bit crap on the comedy front this year. We have the noses, badges, stickers and are currently baking the recipes and school did a dress red day today for charity too. It's just the TV show that is not it's usual self.

Urgh Love Actually. One of my least favourite films.

cant do love actually without alan rickman

I absolutely love Love Actually, actually

But mostly I just enjoy Bill Nighy in it. He had such fun in the original.

Well that was the highlight of the night!

I thought the Hugh Grant speech was quite poignant, in light of recent events.

Quite enjoyed it.

I agree. Bourbons are far superior to custard creams. Custard creams are a bit dry.

I'm glad chocolate digestives are the winners.

I agree Hugh Grants speech was poignant in light of the events of the last few days. I loved it.

Who is the woman in the gold skirt?

Lenny Henry looked visabily shocked, and pleased at the total.
