02 02 2022

Personalities including Graham Norton, Oti Mabuse, Hugh Bonneville, Sir Sir Lenny Henry, Rosie Jones and Jamie Demetriou star in a new comedy sketch in advance of this year's Red Nose Day, March 18.

The sketch, available to view on YouTube, features Comic Relief co-founder Sir Lenny Henry setting out to 'make an inspirational movie about the wonderful people who make Red Nose Day so special', prompting a host of famous faces to send in their audition tapes for a part in the film. Henry commented 'I've been inspired by so many people and it's usually members of the public who do extraordinary things. I'm always amazed by how dedicated and passionate the people that run the projects are - both in the developing world and in this country - to help better the lives of so many. So, to anybody who has fundraised to support these life changing projects, I personally thank you because we wouldn't be able to do this stuff without you guys'.
