Hello and welcome to the News At When. When? | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
Well, the last decade, for a change | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
because here at HHTV, we have a special report | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
on how the BBC's Sport Relief came to our screens | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
and revolutionised the way we all look at sports stars | 0:00:17 | 0:00:21 | |
and certainly the way that I look at David Beckham. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
I think it's the tattoos. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
Anyway, who better to give you more information on this TV landmark | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
than Bob Hale with the Sport Relief report? Bob. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
Thank you, Sam. Well, Sport Relief, Sport Relief, Sport Relief, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
the annual fundraising event so exciting, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
it has to take every other year off to recover. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
"But where did it all begin?" | 0:00:42 | 0:00:43 | |
is a rhetorical question that I never have to answer. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
Yes, it's 2002, ten long years ago, when the funny folk from Comic Relief | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
and the toned team from BBC Sport put their heads together, | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
resisted having a little kiss and decided instead | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
to invent a history-making night of sport, entertainment and fundraising | 0:00:55 | 0:00:59 | |
right here on BBC The First. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Sorry, BBC One. I'm more used to King. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
And what a show it was! | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
Sports stars from every game proved they're good sports and fair game. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
Even the prime minister lent his support, though sadly, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
it was by playing tennis, not golf, | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
so I can't do my "who wants to play a round with Tony Blair?" joke. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
Then, after a brief interruption from 2003, along comes 2004, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
when a second Sport Relief hit our screens, | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
apologised and paid for the damage. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
This time, the show was even bigger, raising a whopping £16.9 million, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
which, to give you some idea of scale, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
is like £1 million multiplied by 16.9 and that's maths I just can't do. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:36 | |
And it didn't stop there. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:37 | |
Well, technically, it did, but only for a year because in 2006, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
Sport Relief Three arrived. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:42 | |
Peter Kay, Catherine Tate, Chris Evans, Paul Whitehouse | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
are just some of the names written on this autocue. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
And that wasn't the half of it. David Walliams swam the Channel | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
and McFly hit number one by covering Queen, | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
though no-one will tell me what with. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
Then, with barely enough time to do a massively long two-year blink, | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
it's 2008 and Sport Relief's back and thirsty for more. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
There's dancing shoes, tennis shoes and rule issues | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
as Alan Carr joined a ladies' team. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:06 | |
But putting that football stud on the pitch | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
certainly helped Sport Relief to haul in a massive 28.5 million quid. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
So, beat that! "OK, then, we will", says 2010 | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
and sets about throwing a Sport Relief party all of its own. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
And what a party it is! | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
-With great music, good food and even a fine -wine -- David Beckham's voice. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
Little joke, there. Nice one, Bobsie. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
There's even a beautiful pop starlet who, | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
in a twist from which I may never fully recover, | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
turns out to be Rufus Hound. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
And, if we look to the cash-o-meter, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
we can see that this party really pulled in the punters, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
raising more than £44.25 million. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
A feat that can't be beat, right? Wrong! | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
Because it's 2012, people, which means Sport Relief is back. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
Ten years young and fitter than a butcher's dog with gym membership, | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
it's the hottest ticket since the Olympics | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
and there's no slightly confusing draw to get one. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
It's just you lot, us lot | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
and more fun than you could shake a pole vaulter's stick at | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
and they are massive. So, get up, get involved and get donating | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
to the TV event that's so exciting, | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
it made Thames-swimming titan David Walliams physically sick. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
And... What? Well, then, what did make him sick? | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
They're still putting him out in the Thames? | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
Oh! Enjoy the show, everyone. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
Back to you, Sam. Has anyone got a bin? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
-I have the, erm... -(SCREAMS) | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
-Too late. -I'm so sorry. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 |
