Stars line up for charity
11 April 2012
Children In Need is hoping to raise at least £26 million tonight in the 24th televised BBC appeal.
The seven-hour TV extravaganza, presented by Terry Wogan and Gaby Roslin, includes a remake of The Wizard Of Oz with the cast of EastEnders, Holby City, Casualty and Merseybeat.
EastEnders actor Shane Richie, who plays Alfie Moon, is releasing this year's Children in Need single I'm Your Man, a cover of the Wham hit.
A Morecambe and Wise kitchen sketch is recreated by celebrity chefs Ainsley Harriott and Antony Worrall Thompson.
Pop stars like the Cheeky Girls, Holly Valance and Sophie Ellis Bextor perform from Weymouth, Stoke and Maidstone.
More than £26 million was raised for last year's appeal.
