An Audience with the Empress

So. Today is Comic Relief day. Have you got your Red Nose? Alas, I haven't because I've actually not seen them for sale anywhere... I fail, I know.

Anyway, in the spirit of things and people doing something funny for money, here we go.

10 Downing Street has a big red nose on the door: ( Collapse )

And I'll leave it there I think. Would just like to say that these are not my entries, and all credit goes to the lovely people who thought them up! For more, check out @serafinowicz. If you think you can do better, join in but remember that you have to donate to Comic Relief to play: http://www.justgiving.com/peterserafinowicz
I would play, but I can't think of anything worthy for this, so I'm passing it on to you guys!

Oh, and if you wanted RND icons...

Thoughts on Comic Relief so far:

David Tennant = so amazingly droolable in a white suit.
Davina McCall = so excited. It's ace.
David Tennant + Davina McCall = so awesome cause they work together really well
Awesome quotes: 'You even sound sexy talking about the tax man!' - Davina on David
Mastermind = WIN!
Watching people belly dance down Stafford highstreet on the tv... genius!
Outnumbered is looking good so far :D

Other thoughts:
The Saturdays outfits at the beginning of the show: what?
Unsure as to why people seem to be crying over the show...

I've done my bit for Comic Relief. Bought two Mr Funny's Red Nose Day books a while back (which meant I forgot about them until they mentioned it on the show) and I've entered Peter Serafinowicz's Vegetable Pop Star competition :D

More thoughts to come later, maybe.

Edit:
OMG!! The kiss!
'If I give £50 to Comic Relief, can I kiss you?'
'I'd have done it for a fiver'
Davina, I kind of hate you right now, but I still love you really.

Edit:
I am loving the French and Saunders' Mamma Mia. Give me more!
'I'm Bond', 'I'm Darcy', 'I'm a swede'
'Chicken Tikka, tell me what's wrong...'

However, I am less happy with Jonathan Ross and Claudia Winkleman presenting now :(

Edit:
I never thought I'd laugh so much at football related things, but that RND football sketch was awesome! That's the kind of football I like.
