Children In Need - good/bad bits?

[desprateseagull]

I was on the CIN donation phones last night, and took about £300 total - other reps were getting cray amounts!)

we seemed to get higher per call, as the pubs close.. )


Hopefully got it recorded, but dont want to sit through a load of bore..

What is the latest figure on money raised.

 

[BensGrandad]

I have just googled it and apparently a record £31.7m raised last night. Watched it till it left BBC2 but did Corrie cast do a spot, they usually do?

This. Last night was the first time I have stayed up until 2am watching TV on CIN night, but I didn't watch any of CIN.

Didn't watch much of it.

Did see a brief sequence featuring Warwick Davis and it reminded me of an awful moment during autumn half term when we were visiting family in the Cotswolds.

We were enjoying a family day out when a bearded, balding dwarf about the same size as Warwick Davis and wearing a very smart three-piece suit and Barbour jacket walked out of a shop just as we were going in. I could sense my 4 year old lad was about to comment but I could neither divert his attention nor get my hand over his mouth in time.

"Daddy," he said, loudly. "Is that a children or a little old man?"

I'd recommend skipping everything apart from the last couple of seconds.

Had a similar thing happen when my daughter was little.
Walking along Brighton seafront when a dwarf came towards us, my daughter said out loud " funny little man, silly looking boy "

Glad it just isn't me then!

Worst thing is that later on the same day we encountered the same chap other side of the road, getting into his BMW.
Before he could say anything else, I palmed my son off onto my unsuspecting sister and walked off quickly.

 

[desprateseagull]

We only had CIN on the screens,. no clue about Paris until I got home..

 

[desprateseagull]

mind you, nothing can beat Fat Boy Slim, for a good night out..

Makes me think of this...
