how cool was the children in need single?!

[NanBullen]

How good was that? I love peter kay, he's a lovely man

Paddington bear was very very rock and roll!

Puppy - I almost cried, but figured I am just pregnant & hormonal.
It is a fantastic video. Yay for Peter Kay!

itoo thought it was very clever, well done Peter Kay, he can do no wrong.

I agree mike levels were low, I kept turning up volume every time Terry talked.

Anyone else think something was missing from the programme, I thought it was "flat", seemed to miss a certain wow factor. Terry's jokes seemed old and tired and he was quite slow, bless him. Loved his "double" though. I could not muster it til the end, what was the total?

It seemed to me this year they didn't need to keep saying "this year the total is better than last year" because it is always high now.

Genius

Who are the wooden girl and boy wooden puppets at about 38 secs on the youtube video?

Are they the woodentops??

Ds and DD have been watching it on youtube all morning they both love it!

i thought it was just me that was sad enough to love it

Amazing- not much gets all 4 boys excited LOL

Not that CIN can do wrong in my eyes, their funding to BIBIC is what I credit with getting ds3 talkng (ASD)

Will buy Monday

That's it Princessmel

The bit that made me LOL was Big Chris behind Parker, weilding a pair of scissors!!

Tis brill.

That's my DS 14 favorite part as well Beth

Love the single - have just re-watched (again) it on the DVD which arrived this morning

Recognise pretty much all only 2 we can't get ... the cartoon man in green near the beginning and the chap with what looks like a pumpkin for a head who is playing the drums. Anyone know?

There's a video on the making of it here if anyone is interested

The green man is Ben 10

thanks for that link TigersChick, looks like it was a right faff to make! The pumpkin character is out of bob the builder, don't know about the cartoon man though.

Just tried youtube and got this message
" This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Sony BMG Music Entertainment. "

Bah!
Anyone know why? has it been released now and they don't want people to see if for free?

My DD has had it on continously on youtube tonight this works

Ooh thanks Bruffin
Had better wait until ds comes back from his father's to watch it then

Ah - Ben 10 ... yes, DD isn't the slightest bit interested in that one ...
It's not Spud from Bob the Builder, it's another Pumpkin headed character - who'd have thought there were so many

Just watching it again and the one we don't know is playing the drums while the Wombles are playing the guitars, Andy Pandy is doing the air guitar and Spud is shaking maracas in the foreground... Now there's a sentence I never thought I'd type

Found it - He's Engie Benjy ... who I've never heard of! Found him on this list.
Obsessed? Me??

Wasn't Paddington Bear excellent doing the old James Brown routine? Love it!
