0:00:02 > 0:00:04Shall we get the party started?
0:00:04 > 0:00:07Where can you see the best British comedy talent?
0:00:07 > 0:00:08Am I bovvered?
0:00:08 > 0:00:11It's a very good cause, John. Ah-ha-ha-ha.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13The world's biggest pop stars?
0:00:13 > 0:00:17- One killer performance.- Oh, gives me little chills.- This'll be amazing.
0:00:17 > 0:00:21And Simon Cowell get sawn in half?
0:00:21 > 0:00:22I was a bit nervous.
0:00:22 > 0:00:28Right here, that's where, because this is Children In Need's 50 Greatest Moments.
0:00:29 > 0:00:35Tonight, we reveal the top 20, counting down to that all important number one.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01Tonight, Pudsey's countdown continues, looking back over 30 years
0:01:01 > 0:01:05of celebrities dancing, singing and humiliating themselves, all for Children In Need.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08So far we've seen 50 to 21.
0:01:08 > 0:01:14If you thought that was good, just wait until you see what we've got in store for you tonight.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16It's not the best feeling in the world.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18It was always going to be immense.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23- Those are the moments we all sit and wait for. - No, they, no...- Give it up.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Who is this little toe rag?
0:01:26 > 0:01:31So, without further ado, let's find out what's at number 20.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34It's a hamster driving an Audi Quattro.
0:01:34 > 0:01:39Not a real hamster, of course, that would be ridiculous and quite dangerous.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40I don't know how the idea
0:01:40 > 0:01:44of Ashes To Ashes and Top Gear getting together came about.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Somebody bigger and cleverer than me would have thought of it.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Well, bigger, definitely.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Yes, in 2008, two award-winning shows came together
0:01:53 > 0:01:55for this three-minute piece of funniness.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57- Oi.- Sorry.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Get away from that motor and put your hands in the air.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Philip was heroically abusive of me.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Why should I let a miniature scrotum like you anywhere near my car?
0:02:05 > 0:02:09What else is he going to do? He gets the small one off Top Gear to play with.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13You seriously think I'd let a man who looks like a gerbil drive my car?
0:02:13 > 0:02:16I don't know what I was thinking about.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19The Audi Quattro was an important car, but let's be honest,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21it's an old car, which means it's rubbish.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Sorry, Audi Quattro.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31These are brilliant. Shame it's wasted on him.
0:02:31 > 0:02:37Producers decided it would be wise to use a stuntman for the high-speed manoeuvres.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39I don't know why, with my reputation.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Yeah, I know why. - But it's not all fun and games.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51There was an important lesson to be learned.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53How do you fancy meeting The Stig?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55I thought you'd never ask.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00In my experience, a chap's ability to execute a handbrake turn has
0:03:00 > 0:03:05a direct correlation with his ability to persuade young ladies to get jiggy.
0:03:05 > 0:03:11Handbrake turn, girls, jiggy, got it.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Of course, if that doesn't work, you can always try hypnotism.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17We're all going off on an exciting journey into the imagination.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23Don't adjust your screens. What you're about to see isn't a trick.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27These are real celebrities risking real careers.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30We're going off down the farmyard and there's a lot of milking to be done.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Yes, at number 19, it's hypnotist Paul McKenna, famous for helping
0:03:34 > 0:03:38Olympic athletes win medals, or smokers quit their habit.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43Back in 1996, he's doing what he does best - making celebrities look like idiots.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46HE TALKS GIBBERISH
0:03:46 > 0:03:49I didn't understand what I'd have to do,
0:03:49 > 0:03:51so I just agreed to do it.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- Do you feel hypnotised?- No way. - No, no, sleep, sleep.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55What are we actually doing here?
0:03:55 > 0:03:59When you wake up in the next few moments, whenever you hear this piece of music,
0:03:59 > 0:04:00for the rest of this evening,
0:04:00 > 0:04:03you'll become a world champion goal-scoring footballer.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08I know that it wasn't fake because my acting's not that good!
0:04:08 > 0:04:10He shoots, he scores!
0:04:10 > 0:04:14It's a goal! It's a goal! It's a goal!
0:04:14 > 0:04:19Dean, Dean, what are you doing out of your seat?
0:04:19 > 0:04:22The most embarrassing thing for me, watching back on my hypnotism...
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- Acting like a fish? - It was just awful.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Talking like an alien?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- Oh, yeah, right.- I'm horrified for what I was wearing.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Yeah, fair point.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38I don't think there's been any lasting effects from being hypnotised or anything like that.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40MATCH OF THE DAY THEME MUSIC
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Goal!
0:04:42 > 0:04:47But enough of all this nonsense. At number 18, it's time to get serious.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53The following clip contains images that many viewers may find offensive
0:04:53 > 0:04:58and should not be replicated unless raising large sums of money for Children In Need,
0:04:58 > 0:05:00or intoxicated, or even both.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04# Let's do the Time Warp again. #
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Yes, avert your eyes, it's the newsreaders in their underwear,
0:05:07 > 0:05:10performing the Rocky Horror Show.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Put your hands on your hips.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15# And bring your knees in tight. #
0:05:15 > 0:05:17It was phenomenal.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20That was easily, I think, streets ahead of all the others.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24# Let's do the Time Warp again. #
0:05:24 > 0:05:27The legendary Michael Buerk, who actually, I think,
0:05:27 > 0:05:31as the story goes, did the 10 O'Clock News
0:05:31 > 0:05:34wearing his suit and fishnet tights underneath.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37That's not just a story, Sophie.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40The act was scheduled for only a couple of minutes
0:05:40 > 0:05:44after the end of the 10 O'Clock News that I was presenting.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Good evening.
0:05:47 > 0:05:53- He didn't have time to change. - I was bloody uncomfortable.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55All this stuff was below the waist.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Above the waist, I was your standard BBC 10 O'Clock newscaster.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Students will have to pay far more to go to university.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06But then, quite late in the evening, they wheel on our social affairs editor.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Our social affairs editor Neil Dixon is here.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11But nobody told him that I'd got this costume on.
0:06:11 > 0:06:20And I swing round to him, in a black leather micro skirt, fishnet stockings and big leather boots.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- Yes, Michael, I think there was a real prospect... - How he carried on, I don't know.
0:06:31 > 0:06:39- For those that still don't believe, here's the proof.- What a picture.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Fortunately for Michael, he wasn't the headline that night.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Jeremy Vine, the bravest newsreader of them all.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51# I see you've met my... #
0:06:51 > 0:06:54I've never been able to look at Jeremy in quite the same way.
0:06:54 > 0:06:59What's the big deal? You're in stockings and suspenders and he's just in a cloak.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02# Don't get strung out by the way I look... #
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Oh, my God.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06# Don't judge a book by its cover... #
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I thought he was such a terrific guy,
0:07:09 > 0:07:13brilliant journalist, and good mate, but...
0:07:13 > 0:07:14I had my doubts.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17# I'm just a sweet transvestite
0:07:20 > 0:07:22# From Transsexual... #
0:07:22 > 0:07:28Horrific though it may be, it managed to help raise 13.5 million in 2002.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31That's the great thing about Children In Need.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36What ever an arse you make of yourself, at the end of the day, it was for children, wasn't it?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Next, one of the most ground-breaking moments in history.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43In 2009, a brave documentary film crew went to the ends of the Earth
0:07:43 > 0:07:46in search of mythical talking animals.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49This is what they found.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Oh, hello.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Isn't that Children In Need?
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Dear, oh dear. I mean, I'm all for charity and all that,
0:07:55 > 0:07:57but it's gone a bit mad around here this year.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Look, everyone, it's jumping Justin.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Evening, boys, don't get up.
0:08:01 > 0:08:06I'm joking, of course. This is a Walk On The Wild Side special for Children In Need.
0:08:06 > 0:08:11- Sid.- What, who's that? - This is your conscience speaking. - What?
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Alan, Alan, Al, Alan. Alan.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Al, Al, Al, Al!
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I know what you're thinking - what do human sound like as animals?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Well, it's something like this.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29ANIMAL HOWLS AND SCREECHES
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Amazing.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40At number 16, a performance that Simon Cowell describes as...
0:08:40 > 0:08:43One of the worst musical performances ever.
0:08:43 > 0:08:47- Oh, dear. Well, who could that be? - Here's Terry Wogan.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Many years ago, when the world was young
0:08:49 > 0:08:51and I was a great deal younger,
0:08:51 > 0:08:54somebody had the idea that I should release a record.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57# I thought I could hear the curious tone
0:08:57 > 0:09:00# Of the cornet, clarinet and big trombone... #
0:09:00 > 0:09:05And then somebody had the really bad idea that we do a rap version for Children In Need.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07# There was band with a curious tone
0:09:07 > 0:09:10# Of the cornet clarinet and big trombone... #
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Sporting a suit trouser and camo jacket combo,
0:09:13 > 0:09:18Mr Children In Need has made the Top 20 with the Floral Dance remix.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20# All together with the floral dance... #
0:09:22 > 0:09:26As anybody looking at this will see, it was an unmitigated disaster.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- Say, way-oh!- Way-oh!
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Way-oh!
0:09:30 > 0:09:32I mean, the Floral Dance, and I'm not being rude,
0:09:32 > 0:09:37has got to be one of the worst musical performances ever.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40# ..Came floating down... #
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- It's not that bad.- Say, way-oh!
0:09:43 > 0:09:45- Way-oh.- Way-oh!
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Brilliant.
0:09:47 > 0:09:48He's a great DJ,
0:09:48 > 0:09:51and a great TV presenter. He's just a terrible singer.
0:09:51 > 0:09:58I wouldn't be too quick to criticise, Cowell, because guess who's at number 15...
0:09:58 > 0:10:00as a magician's assistant?
0:10:00 > 0:10:04I remember getting a very excited call from Pete Waterman.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07He said, "I've got to speak to urgently."
0:10:09 > 0:10:11"What's urgent, Pete?"
0:10:11 > 0:10:13"I need to saw you in half on TV."
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Right, get him in the box.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28I was a bit nervous, I've got to be honest with you.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Where's his waistband?
0:10:30 > 0:10:34I don't know, I can't find it. It's there somewhere.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38It was when I realised it was electric.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- You're kidding me. - I'm not kidding you.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43That's it.
0:10:43 > 0:10:49I'm lying in a box, I can't move, somebody who I often fall out with
0:10:49 > 0:10:52is standing there with a chainsaw and it's live TV.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54It's not the best feeling in the world.
0:10:58 > 0:11:03I remember thinking that at point, "He's actually not a magician, what if he does saw me in half?"
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Oh, dear. - You don't know what you're doing.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I know what I'm doing, son.
0:11:09 > 0:11:15But that's Pete, he loves dressing up in strange clothes and holding chainsaws.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17I thought you said he's got no backbone.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25At the time, it was like, "Simon Cowell's getting sawn in half."
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Now when you think back at it, you're thinking,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30"Do we wish we could have sawn Simon Cowell in half?"
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- Probably, yeah.- Would that have been a bit of a problem for us?
0:11:38 > 0:11:40It was quite embarrassing.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Actually, he did saw me in half.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Before your very eyes, ladies and gentlemen.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53No, obviously, we'd never want that to really happen in real life.
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Now, we've already seen EastEnders impersonate one icon in this countdown,
0:12:04 > 0:12:09so when Pudsey called in 2002, you can count on one man to rise to the challenge.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12# I want to break free... #
0:12:12 > 0:12:14After I Want To Break Free,
0:12:14 > 0:12:16the following year, I think EastEnders thought,
0:12:16 > 0:12:18"We've got to top this."
0:12:18 > 0:12:22So when you've left your stamp on Freddie Mercury, where can you possibly go next?
0:12:22 > 0:12:26They said, "Shaun, you're going to be Michael Jackson."
0:12:26 > 0:12:29# Cos this is thriller
0:12:29 > 0:12:31# Thriller night
0:12:31 > 0:12:34# No-one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike... #
0:12:34 > 0:12:40"So you want fat Barry Evans, overweight, face like a bag of spanners, to play Michael Jackson?"
0:12:40 > 0:12:45They said, "Yeah." I thought, "This is going to be awful."
0:12:45 > 0:12:50# You know, it's thriller thriller night... #
0:12:50 > 0:12:51He wasn't trying to do it as Michael Jackson,
0:12:51 > 0:12:53he was trying to do it as Barry being Michael Jackson.
0:12:53 > 0:12:58# Inside a killer, thriller tonight... #
0:12:58 > 0:13:01I remember Shaun Williamson doing Thriller, that was great.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05He physically isn't very similar to Michael Jackson, but he was good.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07He can really nail the tune.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10# Killer, thriller, tonight... #
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I looked ridiculous, like an embarrassing uncle.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14# The dead start to walk... #
0:13:14 > 0:13:20There's a bit when I jump up on a park bench, I thought, "This is your chance, son, go for it."
0:13:20 > 0:13:23# There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time... #
0:13:23 > 0:13:27Flip the old jacket down the back and I'm like, "Yeah, come on!"
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Did a few little off-the-cuff Jackson moves.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Not quite sure what Jackson moves those are.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39I think one of the best parts of our video is the zombies.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41The make-up team did a fantastic job.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44My first appearance as a zombie, may I add.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Darling, you're a natural.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49That was his hand. We'd been four hours without a snack.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54Zombies, check. Michael Jackson, well, kind of.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57All that's left is the famous dance.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00When I looked back on it, it looked like I was having a fit.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03Darkness falls across the land.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Your body starts to shiver.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11This classic Children In Need performance helped raise over £26 million.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13The evil of the thriller.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21If you liked that, stay tuned.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23There's more soapy moments still to come.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Next, a trip down mammary lane... I mean memory lane.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32For me, taking part in Children In Need was extraordinary
0:14:32 > 0:14:34because I'd watched it for years and years.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38I remember watching it and Joanna Lumley taking her clothes off.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43I'd like to take my dress off later on, if somebody would like to pledge some money...for that.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47We were suitably moved by Joanna's offer.
0:14:50 > 0:14:55One of the events that will always be fresh in the memory of all of those,
0:14:55 > 0:15:00and all of us who've been part of Children In Need since 1980.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02No need for big musical numbers or comedy sketches.
0:15:02 > 0:15:08Back in 1983, it appears celebs would just strip for money.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Weren't the '80s just fantastic?!
0:15:22 > 0:15:24It was a little black number,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26and it had the required effect.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33There's never been a higher point in Children In Need for me.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37In that case, let's see your high point one more time.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42We salute you, Miss Lumley.
0:15:44 > 0:15:50If we had the requisite amount of money, who knows, she might have taken it all off.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55And that would've been something, I tell you.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Over the years, Children In Need has given us
0:15:59 > 0:16:03some pretty unique musical performances, but no-one could have
0:16:03 > 0:16:08predicted this brilliantly bizarre duet back in 1997.
0:16:08 > 0:16:13I had a request through asking if I would do something for Children In Need.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18# Another bride... #
0:16:18 > 0:16:22But then when she said they want you to sing...
0:16:22 > 0:16:26# Another sunny... #
0:16:26 > 0:16:28..with Kermit the Frog.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29Hey-ho.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Nice.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40It was incredible.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44# A lot of shoes...
0:16:44 > 0:16:48# A lot of rice... #
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Everybody knows who Kermit the Frog is.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55It was like meeting royalty.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59You are, and why would you not, treating him like a major star,
0:16:59 > 0:17:02albeit bending down a little bit.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05# To make whoopee... #
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Singing with Kermit is not something that you forget.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13- # He's so ambitious - Er, amphibious. #
0:17:13 > 0:17:18It definitely was one of the highlights of my career.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23Sadly, this was to be the first and only time Kermit and Ulrika performed together.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25# For making whoopee... #
0:17:25 > 0:17:28I haven't actually got Kermit's mobile number,
0:17:28 > 0:17:34but if you are watching this, and you fancy making whoopee,
0:17:34 > 0:17:35then give me a call.
0:17:35 > 0:17:39Miss Piggy's not going to like that, Ulrika.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47And talking of unforgettable duets,
0:17:47 > 0:17:50once upon a time, in a television studio in West London
0:17:50 > 0:17:53two star-crossed lovers looked into each other's eyes,
0:17:53 > 0:17:55and sung about a whole new world.
0:17:55 > 0:18:00# A whole new world... #
0:18:00 > 0:18:04And in the spirit of fairytale, let's all say something nice.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Katie and Peter performing together, doing A Whole New World,
0:18:08 > 0:18:09what can I say?
0:18:09 > 0:18:13# A whole new world
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Erm...
0:18:14 > 0:18:16It was, wow.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Wait...
0:18:18 > 0:18:20I'm just trying to think.
0:18:20 > 0:18:26Come on, it can't be that hard, this fairytale needs a knight in shining armour.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Arise, Sir Terry, we need some help.
0:18:29 > 0:18:34It wasn't perhaps the greatest performance of the century, but it was OK.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39It was in tune, and Peter can certainly sing, and Katie...
0:18:39 > 0:18:41came in at the appropriate time.
0:18:42 > 0:18:47- # A whole new world - A whole new world
0:18:47 > 0:18:52# A new fantastic point of view
0:18:52 > 0:18:57# No-one to tell us no Or where to go
0:18:57 > 0:19:03# Or say we're only dreaming
0:19:01 > 0:19:03A whole new world
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Every turn a surprise... #
0:19:05 > 0:19:08During the time they were performing, no donations coming through at all,
0:19:08 > 0:19:10because everybody was riveted,
0:19:10 > 0:19:13but as soon as they'd finished, the phones went mad.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16# A whole new world... #
0:19:16 > 0:19:22It was one of the great moments on Children In Need in terms of a tremendous burst of giving.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26Yes, Peter gets a bit of stick, and Katie's got her knockers,
0:19:26 > 0:19:32but this classic Children In Need duet helped raise over £17 million on the night.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35And they all lived happily ever after.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Well, kind of.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43Before we dive head-first into the top ten greatest moments,
0:19:43 > 0:19:46let's raise a glass to the smooth talking Irishman
0:19:46 > 0:19:51that Children In Need simply wouldn't be the same without.
0:19:51 > 0:19:57Now it's time to pay tribute to a very wonderful and warm human being, but enough of me.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- AS KEN BRUCE:- If there was a good ship Children In Need,
0:20:00 > 0:20:04Sir Terry would be the carved figurehead at the front of it.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07# Terry Wogan, Terry Wogan, Terry Wogan... #
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Sir Terry has presented Children In Need for over 30 years,
0:20:11 > 0:20:16that's over 200 hours of live TV and pure professionalism.
0:20:16 > 0:20:22Terry Wogan is quintessentially Children In Need.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- When you think of Children In Need, you think of Terry.- Yee-hah!
0:20:24 > 0:20:28From the second I started on that show, he took me under his wing,
0:20:28 > 0:20:30and guided me through the chaos.
0:20:30 > 0:20:35- Quite moved by that. - He has got the smoothest voice I think I've ever heard.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Imagine a sweet with Terry Wogan running all the way through it.
0:20:38 > 0:20:44Sir Terry Wogan is the lynchpin in Pudsey's nappy.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50He's got great energy, you never see him wavering over the night.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Hello, I'm Gaby Roslin.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55No jokes, I really have lost Terry Wogan.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59- He might be off, you know, having a little tipple on the side. - Thank you very much, Charles.
0:20:59 > 0:21:04As far as I know, Terry Wogan only ever drunk water.
0:21:04 > 0:21:09SLURRING: I'll give Terry Wogan £250 for his tie.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14The show must go on, it's the old pro syndrome, you know, bore everybody to death.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Belting idea. Whoa!
0:21:17 > 0:21:19He just gets dealt curve balls all night.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Pretty smooth, eh?
0:21:21 > 0:21:24If you've been watching from the start,
0:21:24 > 0:21:26and even I haven't been watching from the start.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29He doesn't have to unwind after he's been on stage, he's relaxed on stage.
0:21:29 > 0:21:34- And that is why he's a great host for the evening. - I'm not really with you now.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36It doesn't matter how chaotic it is,
0:21:36 > 0:21:39he'll just rock on the balls of his feet and just go, "oh, ah".
0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Hmm.- Oh. Hmm.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45I just caught a glimpse of myself on the television,
0:21:45 > 0:21:48how have you been able to watch this all evening?
0:21:48 > 0:21:53Tonight we can all make it count, really count for the children.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57He's passionate about the charity himself,
0:21:57 > 0:21:59he passionate about what it stands for.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03Keep the donations coming in please, I hate to nag, but we have to do better this year.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08All that fine work that contributed to him becoming Sir Terry, oh!
0:22:08 > 0:22:13- We're glad that you're here, but show us the money. - It's Terry's show.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Children In Need is Terry, and Terry is Children In Need.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Isn't that heart-warming, everybody?
0:22:19 > 0:22:23Without Terry doing Children In Need, the world would not be right.
0:22:24 > 0:22:30He's the only man for the job, he's going to have to live forever, isn't he?
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- He's a legend. - He is a legend.- He's a legend.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Deepest respect for that man.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- I've always loved him. - He is a national treasure.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44And it's just great to be able to say I worked with Terry Wogan.
0:22:47 > 0:22:53I just hope, when the day comes, when I'm not able to react quickly,
0:22:53 > 0:22:56when I appear to trip over my feet,
0:22:56 > 0:23:01I hope that somebody's going to take me aside and say, time you were gone.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04Thank you, thank you, thank you, for all your efforts.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06But in the meantime,
0:23:06 > 0:23:09I'm going to go on doing it for as long as I can.
0:23:09 > 0:23:15You're all very strange. But I love you.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18What a legend.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, so sit back
0:23:22 > 0:23:26and enjoy the Children In Need greatest moments top ten.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34At number ten, we're at Number Ten, when Tony Blair meets Tony Blair.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37What? Has the scriptwriter been on the booze again?
0:23:37 > 0:23:42The Jon Culshaw and Tony Blair sketch has to be one of
0:23:42 > 0:23:45the classic Children In Need moments.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Fair play to Jon Culshaw, because I would not ever have the balls
0:23:50 > 0:23:58to do an impression of the actual Prime Minister in front of him,
0:23:58 > 0:23:59in his house.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03People of Britain, this is your Prime Minister.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05'I always thought that impressions'
0:24:05 > 0:24:07were just sort of exaggerations,
0:24:07 > 0:24:11but there he is, just off guard, the real fellow, he says,
0:24:11 > 0:24:15"OK, what do you want to do, guys?"
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Emphatic hand gesture, serious forehead, angry pointy finger.
0:24:18 > 0:24:24It is a great pleasure for me to lend my support to this year's Children In Need.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Not only the support of myself, but also the support,
0:24:28 > 0:24:31in a very real sense, of my associate here.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33I think I can manage from now.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Remember, emphatic hand gesture, serious forehead.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41I said, right, OK, I'll do a formal speech and then that can be your moment.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Since the appeal started back in 1980...
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Then you can get started and then I'll interrupt you.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49- In a very real sense. - In a very real sense,
0:24:49 > 0:24:52it's money which has made and is making a huge difference
0:24:52 > 0:24:56to the lives of many tens of thousands of children and young people in the UK.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Yes, it was very good of him to participate in this.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04I said, thank you, Prime Minister for joining in and helping out in this way.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08He says, "You know, it's a very good cause, Jon, ha-ha."
0:25:08 > 0:25:11And off he went to run the country or something.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Thank you.- Very good, it's good to get a thank you in at the end.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17I think people will relate to that and find that warming.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19I think you do this better than me, actually.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24Looks like he made a good IMPRESSION. Thank you.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Who's at number nine?
0:25:28 > 0:25:34I don't know, who is it? Oh, right, "Who's" at number nine, very clever.
0:25:34 > 0:25:39- What?- What?- What? - It's Who, actually.
0:25:39 > 0:25:45Yes Children In Need in 2007 saw an iconic moment for any Doctor Who fan.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48That moment when the Doctors came together
0:25:48 > 0:25:50was an iconic moment for any Doctor Who fan.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- Yeah, I just said that. - Who are you?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Take a look.
0:25:55 > 0:26:01- Oh, oh, no.- Oh, yes. - You're... Oh, no, you're...
0:26:01 > 0:26:05- Here it comes. Yeah, I am. - A fan?- Yeah... What?
0:26:05 > 0:26:10For those of us who are Doctor Who fans, we always want the past to meet the future.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12And it's that whole time travel thing.
0:26:12 > 0:26:17In real time travel, you're never supposed to meet yourself, but you can if you're different people.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19I've no idea what you're talking about.
0:26:19 > 0:26:24It's like two time zones at war in the heart of the TARDIS. That's a paradox.
0:26:24 > 0:26:30- You guys who know what I'm talking about will understand. - One of the Doctors explains...
0:26:30 > 0:26:32I was rebuilding the TARDIS, forgot to put the shields back up.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36The same TARDIS at different points in their own time stream, collided.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39And ooh, there you go, end of the universe.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41- But I know exactly how this all works out. Watch.- Right.
0:26:41 > 0:26:46It's a brilliant thing that Doctor Who are able to make those moments for Children In Need.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48Those are the moments we wait for.
0:26:48 > 0:26:53Well anyway, it all ends well with a Doctor Who love-in.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Cos you know what, Doctor?
0:26:55 > 0:26:57You were my Doctor.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01And it helped raise over £19 million on the night.
0:27:01 > 0:27:06Even though I still have no idea what or who was going on.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14At number eight, it's poor, thieving good-for-nothings and filthy slums.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Yes, it's Coronation Street, performing the hits from Oliver.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24Stepping into the lead role was actor, Sam Aston, at only 11 years old.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28- Oh, look at his little face. - Please, Sir,
0:27:28 > 0:27:30I want some more.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Yeah, it is a bit cringe-worthy.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36It's just because I was so young, my voice was so high-pitched.
0:27:36 > 0:27:41- Please, Sir, I want some more.- More?
0:27:43 > 0:27:46I had no kind of theatrical experience whatsoever,
0:27:46 > 0:27:51I don't sing, I don't dance, I don't do anything like that.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54His parents are so going to play that at his wedding, aren't they?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Him as Oliver being really cute.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00# He will rue the day somebody named him Oliver... #
0:28:00 > 0:28:03He probably got the girls after that, didn't he?
0:28:03 > 0:28:10It was a great opportunity for the girls of Weatherfield to show us their talents.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12I was so chuffed to be doing Oliver.
0:28:12 > 0:28:17When they said I could be Nancy, I was just so excited.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21# Oom pah pah, oom pah pah That's how it goes
0:28:21 > 0:28:25# Oom pah pah, oom pah pah Everyone knows
0:28:25 > 0:28:29# Whether it's hidden or whether it shows... #
0:28:29 > 0:28:31These girls have got some front.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34# It's the same oom pah pah... #
0:28:34 > 0:28:39And here's Bradley Walsh, in a factory so full of tarts, it should be owned by Mr Kipling.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42# In this life, one thing counts... #
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Bradley Walsh took some handkerchiefs out of my bosom, didn't he?
0:28:45 > 0:28:46I've just remembered that.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49# You got to pick A pocket or two. #
0:28:49 > 0:28:51Oh, my God.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54Who says crime doesn't pay?
0:28:54 > 0:28:5725 members of the Corrie cast performed four choreographed routines
0:28:57 > 0:29:01in full make-up and costume, all shot in one day.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04But the toughest task was mastering the accents.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07- # Consider yourself - At home. #
0:29:07 > 0:29:09I had to do a cockney accent.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11#..one of the family... #
0:29:11 > 0:29:13I'm not sure that's a cockney accent.
0:29:13 > 0:29:14#..so strong...#
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Cor blimey!
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Get out of my pub!
0:29:18 > 0:29:19I'll work on that.
0:29:21 > 0:29:22# Consider yourself... #
0:29:22 > 0:29:27This performance helped Children in Need raise over £17 million in 2004.
0:29:27 > 0:29:33I don't care that they're on the other channel, they can consider themselves one of us.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36I think we did well, considering we ain't West End stars.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42# ..one of us! #
0:29:42 > 0:29:46Not to be outdone, four years later, their soap rivals raised the bar
0:29:46 > 0:29:51by performing songs from not one but a whole load of musicals.
0:29:51 > 0:29:57But what could you call EastEnders performing songs from the West End?
0:29:57 > 0:29:59WestEnders. Genius.
0:29:59 > 0:30:04The strange thing about this is that you always see EastEnders people looking miserable.
0:30:10 > 0:30:15So when you see them with jazz hands
0:30:15 > 0:30:19and make-up and smiles, it's so strange.
0:30:19 > 0:30:23# There may come a time When a lass needs a lawyer
0:30:23 > 0:30:27# But diamonds are A girl's best friend... #
0:30:27 > 0:30:31John Partridge, who plays Christian, he was loving every single minute of it.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33# ..employer thinks You're awful nice
0:30:33 > 0:30:37# But get that ice Or else no dice... #
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Of course, some people are, you know, very good at dancing,
0:30:40 > 0:30:43and some people aren't.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44Johnny's always,
0:30:44 > 0:30:47"You need to give it more arms or more legs."
0:30:47 > 0:30:48You need the hand here.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50"Give it some of this"!
0:30:50 > 0:30:53- Get the choreography! - You can't shut him up.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55I mean, the training never leaves you. No.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Partridge, the ultimate pro.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01I'll go in front. Is it my close-up?
0:31:01 > 0:31:03# Well, you can tell by the way I... #
0:31:03 > 0:31:04Unfortunately, it is.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06# ..a woman's man, no time to talk. #
0:31:06 > 0:31:08We were told it was Saturday Night Fever.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11# Whether you're a brother Or whether you're a mother
0:31:11 > 0:31:13# You're stayin' alive Stayin' alive...
0:31:13 > 0:31:16I thought a bit of slapstick, a bit of comedy...
0:31:16 > 0:31:19They decided to have this slap-up, this punch-up!
0:31:19 > 0:31:22# ..ah, ah, stayin' alive Stayin' alive...#
0:31:22 > 0:31:24I just go...and smack him.
0:31:24 > 0:31:29That's why I love Children in Need. That wasn't scripted, but, like, he says, "I think it'll be funny."
0:31:29 > 0:31:32It's almost like adding the EastEnders element to it.
0:31:32 > 0:31:36And who could forget the big finale, Superfagicalilist... Ohhh...
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Superfagicagalistic expialidocious.
0:31:39 > 0:31:40You know the one.
0:31:40 > 0:31:44# Supercalifragilistic expialidocious
0:31:44 > 0:31:47# Even though the sound of it Is something quite atrocious
0:31:47 > 0:31:51- # If you say it loud enough - You'll always sound precocious
0:31:51 > 0:31:53# Supercalifragilistic expialidocious
0:31:53 > 0:31:54# Um diddle-diddle-diddly Um diddle-aye

0:31:56 > 0:31:57# Um diddle-diddle-diddly Um diddle-aye
0:31:57 > 0:31:59# Um diddle-diddle-diddly Um diddle-aye.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02# As I was afraid to speak When I was just a lad
0:32:02 > 0:32:03# Me father gave me nose a tweak
0:32:03 > 0:32:05# And told me I was bad... #
0:32:05 > 0:32:09It's nice for once to see other people in ridiculous outfits other than myself.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Sing!
0:32:11 > 0:32:17In 2008, Children in Need raised over £21 million, so plenty to make a song and dance about.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Shetty, shetty, hitch, kick, pirouette...
0:32:19 > 0:32:20Oh, dear, oh, dear.
0:32:20 > 0:32:24# Supercalifragilistic Expialidocious! #
0:32:24 > 0:32:27It's all for a good cause.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30That's the spirit. Now hold for applause. Hold it.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32Keep it holding.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35OK, that's enough.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39Next up, five of Britain's best-loved chefs
0:32:39 > 0:32:43show us what exciting things can be done with meat and two veg.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46Even now, people come up in the street and talk about it
0:32:46 > 0:32:47ten years later.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Everyone went, "Oh, God!"
0:32:49 > 0:32:52Everyone thought, "This is too risque."
0:32:52 > 0:32:56It was really scary. One of the most scary things I've ever done.
0:32:56 > 0:33:01I have no idea which person in the Children in Need office thought to themselves,
0:33:01 > 0:33:05"I know, let's get Ainsley Harriott and Antony Worrall Thompson to get nude."
0:33:05 > 0:33:08CHEERING
0:33:08 > 0:33:12Why would you do that? Who wants to see that?
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Well, quite a few people, it turns out, because the Ready Steady Cook
0:33:15 > 0:33:18Full Monty has gone down in Children in Need history.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23The audience were just amazing. They were screaming, they were shouting.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25I felt like a rock star.
0:33:25 > 0:33:30I was almost like the fall guy. I was the one who was always out of time.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33I remember I couldn't get that thrusting movement.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37# You can leave your hat on... #
0:33:39 > 0:33:43The most embarrassing thing, of course, was I was the one who had to stand next to Ainsley.
0:33:45 > 0:33:50And there I was, rummaging through my sock drawer to try and make myself look adequate.
0:33:52 > 0:33:58One of the boys had loosened my belt, when I took my belt off, my trousers were starting to come down.
0:34:00 > 0:34:05I was trying to get my shirt off and hold my trousers up at the same time.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12I'll never forget Antony's trousers falling down.
0:34:13 > 0:34:18OK, anyone with a weak heart should probably look away right about now.
0:34:18 > 0:34:19Oh, whoops, I missed it.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Bit late there. Sorry.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26They'd warned me that they were going to take everything off and I was terrified.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32And at that moment, there is a sort of "No!"
0:34:32 > 0:34:36Like all good chefs, they raised a lot of dough in 1998.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39The studio audience got their money's worth that night,
0:34:39 > 0:34:43but, due to BBC guidelines, TV viewers didn't see a sausage.
0:34:46 > 0:34:51Before we hit number five, let's check out the Children in Need Top of the Pops.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Cue '90s graphics.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58You can't have Children in Need without an official Children in Need single,
0:34:58 > 0:35:02and over the years, some pretty big names have done their bit.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05But the biggest-selling Children in Need single is a Perfect Day,
0:35:05 > 0:35:06performed by:
0:35:10 > 0:35:13..him, her, that bloke from the Lightning Seeds.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Oh, just watch the clip.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28# Just a perfect day... #
0:35:28 > 0:35:30I absolutely loved it. I thought, "This is amazing.
0:35:30 > 0:35:31"What a beautiful song."
0:35:31 > 0:35:34I missed it the first time round.
0:35:34 > 0:35:40# Then later, a movie too And then home... #
0:35:40 > 0:35:44I remember the Elton John bit, and I remember the Gabrielle bit.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48# I'm glad I spent it with you... #
0:35:50 > 0:35:53The lines that I had I think are quite distinctive,
0:35:53 > 0:35:57and lots of people took the mickey out of me for ages!
0:35:57 > 0:36:02# You're going to reap Just what you sow, yeah... #
0:36:02 > 0:36:05# You're going to reap Just what you sow, now... #
0:36:07 > 0:36:09# Just a perfect day... #
0:36:09 > 0:36:14The mix is quite eclectic, and you wonder how they're going to put all these voices together.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17When you look at the line-up, everyone from Bono to
0:36:17 > 0:36:19Shane McGowan, but the list was endless.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21# It's such fun... #
0:36:21 > 0:36:24We were delighted to be asked to be on it.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29I remember clearly shooting the video.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34# Oh, it's such a perfect day... #
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Whoa, whoa, whoa. What the devil are those outfits?
0:36:36 > 0:36:39Is that tinfoil?
0:36:39 > 0:36:42It wasn't your run-of-the-mill outfit, that's for sure.
0:36:42 > 0:36:43It was like a metal paper.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Yes, tinfoil.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48- And it was extremely hot. - That's because it's tinfoil.
0:36:51 > 0:36:56Oven-roasted boy bands aside, Perfect Day hit the UK's number one spot not once but twice,
0:36:56 > 0:36:59selling over 1.5 million copies and raising over £2 million,
0:36:59 > 0:37:04making it the most successful Children in Need single ever.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10So far, we've seen the newsreaders do this, this and this,
0:37:10 > 0:37:16but 2009 saw their most ambitious performance ever.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18I never really feel nervous until literally about
0:37:18 > 0:37:21four minutes before you go on air.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23Thank you, guys.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27You can hear Terry Wogan there and you can hear them talking, and they're all saying, "You're on next."
0:37:27 > 0:37:30Give it up for the Newsroom Massive!
0:37:30 > 0:37:31CHEERING
0:37:31 > 0:37:33"What am I doing?"
0:37:33 > 0:37:37My heart's slightly, "Oh, what if I get it wrong?"
0:37:37 > 0:37:40"There is no way we are going to manage that."
0:37:40 > 0:37:42If you really feel those nerves.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44It is going to be rubbish.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48# Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh Oh, no, no... #
0:37:48 > 0:37:50But for once, it wasn't rubbish,
0:37:50 > 0:37:54and that's why this is the highest of all newsreader performances.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57# Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh Oh, no, no... #
0:37:57 > 0:38:00The girl newsreaders take it really very seriously.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02# I look and stare so deep In your eyes
0:38:02 > 0:38:05# I'm touching you more and more every time... #
0:38:05 > 0:38:10It's their chance to get out from behind that desk and be a little bit sexy.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12# Such a funny thing for me To try to explain... #
0:38:12 > 0:38:14We were all expecting absolute car crash.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Step forward Fiona Bruce
0:38:16 > 0:38:20with a body that you just looked at and thought,
0:38:22 > 0:38:23"Yeah! I would!
0:38:23 > 0:38:24"I definitely would!"
0:38:24 > 0:38:26# So crazy Your love's got me looking
0:38:26 > 0:38:29# Got me looking so crazy, your love... #
0:38:31 > 0:38:33They were sexy, though, weren't they?
0:38:33 > 0:38:36They were sexy! They were super-sexy!
0:38:36 > 0:38:42The newsreader performance is the equivalent of that moment when the secretary takes off her glasses,
0:38:42 > 0:38:46lets the pin out of her hair and reveals a naughty side.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49And this time, it's a double whammy.
0:38:49 > 0:38:54Not only did we have the Beyonce routine, then we had to dance with Diversity.
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Afterwards, the male newsreaders tried to join in and tried to do it
0:39:00 > 0:39:05like a dance battle with Diversity, who, obviously, are fantastic.
0:39:08 > 0:39:14Funnily enough, the girls took to it more easier than the guys did!
0:39:19 > 0:39:23When you see Bill Turnbull doing that- "Come on, then"
0:39:23 > 0:39:26- - to Diversity, you just think, "Oh, no!"- Bill is a beast.
0:39:26 > 0:39:33Underneath, Bill's a wild, furry animal just waiting to get out!
0:39:34 > 0:39:35Something like that.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40When they told us about this robot sequence,
0:39:40 > 0:39:44you think, "I am going to look an absolute idiot here."
0:39:51 > 0:39:53It actually came together rather well.
0:39:53 > 0:39:54Oh, God...
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Who knows what they'll get us to do this year?
0:39:58 > 0:40:01When the call comes, I'll be busy.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04And that's the news tonight!
0:40:04 > 0:40:06CHEERING
0:40:07 > 0:40:11And at number three, two of the toughest ladies in London go head to head.
0:40:11 > 0:40:18Live from the Queen Vic, Children in Need 2005 brings you the slanging match of the century.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20I'm Peggy Mitchell.
0:40:20 > 0:40:21Am I bovvered?
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Peggy thought it was no fight. That's it.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30I mean, who is this little toerag?
0:40:30 > 0:40:32She doesn't frighten me.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35Was Lauren Peggy's toughest adversary?
0:40:36 > 0:40:39I'd very much like to think so!
0:40:42 > 0:40:45Yes, this is when Catherine Tate joined the cast of EastEnders,
0:40:45 > 0:40:49creating a Children in Need comedy classic.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54Lauren was after Stacy because she'd stolen her boyfriend.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56This girl's after me. She thinks I nicked her boyfriend.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58Lauren is from up west.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01She's from up west. There's no knowing what she's capable of.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04It's all sounding a bit like Chekhov.
0:41:04 > 0:41:08Obviously, it's just a sketch for charity.
0:41:08 > 0:41:13If she thinks she can turn up in Walford shouting the odds, she's got another thing coming.
0:41:13 > 0:41:17When I got the script, they said, "Don't really learn it."
0:41:17 > 0:41:19So I said, "But I must!"
0:41:19 > 0:41:23And then I understood why, because you don't get a word in.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25- Are you a cockernee? - You ignorant little mare!
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- I'm only asking a question.- That's... - Can't I even ask a question?
0:41:28 > 0:41:31Can't I even ask you a question? Can't I even ask you a question, though?
0:41:31 > 0:41:34- Can't I even ask you a question? - Will you let me...
0:41:34 > 0:41:36Can I ask you a question?
0:41:36 > 0:41:39- All right.- Do you know Chas and Dave?- What are you talking about?
0:41:39 > 0:41:43- Are you their mum? - Oh, stop talking rubbish.- Is it that you are Chas and Dave's mum?
0:41:43 > 0:41:46- I'm nothing to do with them! - Did you abandon Chas and Dave?
0:41:47 > 0:41:50It was very difficult not to laugh.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52- I said get out. - Are you doing the Lambeth walk, oi?
0:41:52 > 0:41:56- I'm not.- Are you doing the Lambeth walk, oi?- I said get out!- Are you doing the Lambeth walk, oi?
0:41:56 > 0:41:59Is it that you are doing the Lambeth walk, oi?
0:41:59 > 0:42:01Are you disrespecting my family?
0:42:01 > 0:42:03- What? - Are you disrespecting my family?
0:42:03 > 0:42:05No, I love Chas and Dave.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09When you get to work with people that you would not normally work with
0:42:09 > 0:42:13and get to be on the set of something like EastEnders, it's great!
0:42:13 > 0:42:19I'm Peggy Mitchell, and if you know what's good for you, you'll get out of my pub before I throw you out!
0:42:19 > 0:42:21And it's for charity!
0:42:22 > 0:42:23Am I bovvered?
0:42:23 > 0:42:27- That's it.- Am I bovvered, though? - Oh, I don't believe this. - But I ain't even bovvered, though.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31I mean, that last rant she did,
0:42:31 > 0:42:33she never did that at all on rehearsals.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Arthur Fowler, God rest his soul. I ain't even bovvered, though. I ain't even bovvered.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Have a pint of whelks right up your trousers. Do I look bovvered? I ain't even bovvered.
0:42:39 > 0:42:45If Lauren found out she was number three, in the Children in Need greatest moments, what would she say?
0:42:45 > 0:42:46Hmmm.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49Rabbit, rabbit, yap yap rabbit, yip yap yip yap bunny rabbit. I ain't even bovvered.
0:42:49 > 0:42:53Would she say, "Oh, that's nice, innit?"
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Hello, Princess. I ain't even bovvered. Do I look bovvered?
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Ricky, Ricky, Ricky. I ain't bovvered!
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Or would she say, "Am I bovvered? Do I look bovvered?"
0:43:03 > 0:43:05She'd probably say that.
0:43:06 > 0:43:07CHEERING
0:43:07 > 0:43:09But, do you know Chas'n Dave?
0:43:10 > 0:43:13In the end, she did beat me fair and square.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16But am I bovvered?
0:43:18 > 0:43:19Our penultimate moment was masterminded
0:43:19 > 0:43:25by none other than Mr Peter Kay and his animated alter-ego, Big Chris.
0:43:25 > 0:43:30Big Chris, Big Chris, yes. Listen, is Chipping Minton X-directory?
0:43:30 > 0:43:33I'm thinking of doing something for Children in Need.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37Peter Kay has put in a lot of effort over the years for Children in Need,
0:43:37 > 0:43:39but especially last year with his all-star animated band.
0:43:39 > 0:43:41This was a massive project,
0:43:41 > 0:43:43one of the biggest that Children in Need has ever done.
0:43:43 > 0:43:46He's been working on it for a couple of years.
0:43:46 > 0:43:48The end result was quite something.
0:43:48 > 0:43:51Yeah. I'm getting everybody together.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54And when he said everybody, he meant everybody.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01Phenomenal. I remember the first time I saw it,
0:44:01 > 0:44:03I was screaming at my kids to watch it.
0:44:07 > 0:44:12This piece of television history featured over 100 different animated characters
0:44:12 > 0:44:15from over 50 years of children's TV.
0:44:15 > 0:44:18Ladies and gentlemen, the All-star Animated Band.
0:44:18 > 0:44:26# Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it? #
0:44:26 > 0:44:30All of the great cartoon characters were together in this one song,
0:44:30 > 0:44:32in this one performance.
0:44:32 > 0:44:34There were the Wombles.
0:44:34 > 0:44:35# Don't stop... #
0:44:35 > 0:44:37Thunderbirds. Bagpuss.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39You name it. It had the whole lot.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41# It'll soon be here... #
0:44:41 > 0:44:47George and Zippy from Rainbow, alongside Fifi and the Flowertots and the Teletubbies.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55- Thomas the Tank Engine, Bob the Builder.- Postman Pat.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57Postman Pat. Everyone.
0:44:57 > 0:44:59I was just blown away by that.
0:44:59 > 0:45:02Come on, aren't you a little old to get that excited?
0:45:02 > 0:45:05Oh, my word. Is that Fireman Sam?
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Bagpuss, I love Bagpuss!
0:45:07 > 0:45:09Hey, it's Pingu.
0:45:09 > 0:45:12Oh, look. It's Paddington. Bravo!
0:45:13 > 0:45:20It also featured some classic songs from the likes of the Beatles, Take That, Fleetwood Mac and...
0:45:21 > 0:45:22Chumbawumba.
0:45:22 > 0:45:25# I get knocked down But I get up again
0:45:25 > 0:45:26# You're never gonna keep me down
0:45:26 > 0:45:29# I get knocked down But I get up again
0:45:29 > 0:45:32# You're never gonna keep me down. #
0:45:32 > 0:45:35It took 132 hours to record the vocals, eight months to animate,
0:45:35 > 0:45:38and around two years in total to finish.
0:45:40 > 0:45:45The result was a number one single and a performance Bob Geldof would be proud of.
0:45:45 > 0:45:49# Never Pretend that it's all real. #
0:45:49 > 0:45:51The effort that had gone into that,
0:45:51 > 0:45:55the hours and hours of work and detail, was just magnificent.
0:45:57 > 0:45:59# Someone else's dream... #
0:45:59 > 0:46:01How he pulled that off I've absolutely no idea.
0:46:01 > 0:46:04But, again, that is the power of Children in Need.
0:46:04 > 0:46:08# Throw those curtains wide
0:46:08 > 0:46:14# One day like this a year Would see me right. #
0:46:14 > 0:46:16ALL: Hooray!
0:46:18 > 0:46:22So there you have it. 49 moments of pure TV gold.
0:46:22 > 0:46:25But, before we reveal Children in Need's greatest ever moment,
0:46:25 > 0:46:28let's remember why we're all here in the first place.
0:46:28 > 0:46:33The whole of Children in Need is incredible. I felt proud to be part of it for 10 years.
0:46:33 > 0:46:36It's a way of life in this country, every year.
0:46:36 > 0:46:40I like the way it unites the whole country, I think that's important.
0:46:50 > 0:46:53You wait all year for Children in Need and it hits you like a typhoon.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56You know, Bonfire Night, it's nearly Christmas.
0:46:56 > 0:46:57It's that Children in Need season.
0:46:57 > 0:47:01It's an institution. It's part of the British culture, isn't it?
0:47:02 > 0:47:05The actual night could only be described as chaos.
0:47:05 > 0:47:07Really lovely chaos.
0:47:09 > 0:47:12You never know what is going to happen.
0:47:12 > 0:47:15The whole of Television Centre just comes to life.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20- There's always a buzz about it. - It's great to be part of that.
0:47:23 > 0:47:26It's very theatrical. It's very exciting.
0:47:30 > 0:47:34It's like the greatest show on earth. You get complete A-list rock stars.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37Next minute you've got the news readers jumping around in suspenders.
0:47:37 > 0:47:42People will go out of their way, and go out of their comfort zone, to do some good.
0:47:42 > 0:47:46Everybody's sort of takes part, it doesn't matter what channel you're on.
0:47:48 > 0:47:53Everyone is there coming together for one cause, and that is to raise as much money as possible
0:47:53 > 0:47:54to help children around the UK.
0:47:54 > 0:47:59Sometimes we forget how important it is to get behind great causes.
0:47:59 > 0:48:03There's a lot of poverty in this country that needs to be addressed.
0:48:03 > 0:48:08There are so many kids out there who do need help. People pull together.
0:48:08 > 0:48:12The amount of money that it raises for the kids is unbelievable.
0:48:12 > 0:48:16In 1980 we raised £1 million.
0:48:16 > 0:48:22You couldn't possibly have imagined that by now we would have raised over half a billion pounds.
0:48:29 > 0:48:32Every penny of every pound goes to the kids.
0:48:32 > 0:48:33It's such a fantastic cause.
0:48:35 > 0:48:36I can't imagine it not being there.
0:48:36 > 0:48:39It's a great night to be involved with, in whatever way.
0:48:39 > 0:48:42This is something to be admired.
0:48:42 > 0:48:44It is phenomenal.
0:48:44 > 0:48:47- It's just become our heritage. - It's a real celebration.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49It's what the BBC does very well.
0:48:49 > 0:48:53Long may it continue, for ever and ever and ever.
0:48:55 > 0:49:00Children in Need is obviously the most important thing in my professional life.
0:49:00 > 0:49:02It's everything to me.
0:49:02 > 0:49:05It really just says it all in the title.
0:49:05 > 0:49:08Children in Need. And who couldn't answer that call?
0:49:08 > 0:49:10They're children, they need you. That's it.
0:49:16 > 0:49:17So, this is it.
0:49:17 > 0:49:20The creme de la creme, the champion of champions,
0:49:20 > 0:49:23the piece de resistance. The... you get the idea.
0:49:23 > 0:49:29It's the Children in Need greatest moments' number one.
0:49:32 > 0:49:35One of the best things that Children in Need has ever done.
0:49:36 > 0:49:38It was always going to be immense.
0:49:38 > 0:49:42It was an absolutely incredible, incredible might.
0:49:42 > 0:49:44That was an extraordinary thing.
0:49:47 > 0:49:49I don't remember many concerts but I remember that one.
0:49:49 > 0:49:52Yes, remember, remember the 12th of November 2009,
0:49:52 > 0:49:56this is Children In Need Rocks The Albert Hall.
0:49:56 > 0:50:02You only had to look in the eyes of the audience to realise this was quite a ticket to get.
0:50:04 > 0:50:08It was a good concert, in fact, it was a great concert.
0:50:10 > 0:50:15As soon as I knew that Gary Barlow was involved, Old Captain Barlow, I was like, I'm in.
0:50:15 > 0:50:20I was in the BBC one day and thought I'll just hit them with this idea,
0:50:20 > 0:50:22and basically lied a lot.
0:50:22 > 0:50:26Said I knew a lot of people, said I could get hold of them very easily,
0:50:26 > 0:50:30and convinced them it would be a good idea to have this concert.
0:50:31 > 0:50:32A good idea, Gary?
0:50:32 > 0:50:39A star-studded line-up of Britain's biggest stars all in one night? That was a great idea.
0:50:41 > 0:50:46Gary was able to bring on star after star, and a huge crowd.
0:50:49 > 0:50:53I think the most genius thing about Children In Need Rocks The Albert Hall
0:50:53 > 0:50:56were the duets Gary managed to get together.
0:50:56 > 0:51:02We have a very special guest with us tonight, the very beautiful and wonderful Miss Cheryl Cole.
0:51:02 > 0:51:03CHEERING
0:51:03 > 0:51:09So to have Cheryl and Snow Patrol, gives me little chills thinking about that performance. Amazing.
0:51:09 > 0:51:14# I'm miles from where you are
0:51:14 > 0:51:21# I lay down on the cold ground And I... #
0:51:21 > 0:51:24For me, the great performance of someone of the evening,
0:51:24 > 0:51:30of an evening of fantastic performances, and I really shouldn't be singling anybody out,
0:51:30 > 0:51:34but I thought Shirley Bassey, the Dame, and Dizzee Rascal was phenomenal.
0:51:36 > 0:51:40# Diamonds are forever
0:51:40 > 0:51:47# They are all I need to please me
0:51:47 > 0:51:50# They can stimulate and tease me... #
0:51:50 > 0:51:53It sounds ridiculous to even say. Shirley Bassey and Dizzee Rascal.
0:51:53 > 0:51:55Whoever thought that would happen?
0:51:55 > 0:51:58It was a legendary collaboration, I don't think we've seen a collaboration like that
0:51:58 > 0:52:00for a very, very long time.
0:52:00 > 0:52:07With a gap of half a century between their first UK number ones,
0:52:07 > 0:52:09this was a truly memorable duet.
0:52:11 > 0:52:13How that came about, I don't know.
0:52:13 > 0:52:19I'm sat with Dizzee, and I'm saying, "If you want to do any duets, I can show you who else is on the show."
0:52:19 > 0:52:22He instantly went, "Shirley Bassey."
0:52:22 > 0:52:25# The price of my ice could well... #
0:52:26 > 0:52:30And Shirley's dancing was out of this world.
0:52:30 > 0:52:34# Diamonds are forever Forever, forever. #
0:52:34 > 0:52:38I hope I'm like that when I get older. What an absolute legend.
0:52:38 > 0:52:42# Forever. #
0:52:42 > 0:52:46The dress, amazing, the dancing, phenomenal, her and Dizzee together, perfection.
0:52:47 > 0:52:51CHEERING
0:52:53 > 0:52:57It became quite an iconic event for Children In Need, and something that everybody talked about.
0:52:57 > 0:53:01And then the came moment we'd waited 15 long years to see.
0:53:01 > 0:53:07A perfect time for us to introduce an old friend to you right now.
0:53:07 > 0:53:08CHEERING
0:53:08 > 0:53:12Please welcome on stage, Robbie Williams!
0:53:12 > 0:53:16CHEERING
0:53:16 > 0:53:21That was a big moment for us, being back on stage, the five of us.
0:53:21 > 0:53:25Before that there was a lot of kind of feuding for years.
0:53:25 > 0:53:26They didn't speak.
0:53:26 > 0:53:32It just made you realise how silly and petty their feud was in the past,
0:53:32 > 0:53:34compared to something more important.
0:53:37 > 0:53:40And they shouldn't have fallen out, and they're great singing together,
0:53:40 > 0:53:42it was something you're going to remember.
0:53:46 > 0:53:49Children In Need helped that along in some way.
0:53:49 > 0:53:50It kind of broke the ice.
0:53:52 > 0:53:56It was us showing us what the evening was about, it was about everybody coming together.
0:53:57 > 0:54:02Seeing Gary and Robbie embrace on stage at that moment,
0:54:02 > 0:54:03oh, was amazing.
0:54:03 > 0:54:07I think a few tears were shed.
0:54:07 > 0:54:12It was the beginning. "This could happen." And here we are.
0:54:14 > 0:54:17It was a really, really great moment for both the show and the band.
0:54:19 > 0:54:21Take That reunited?
0:54:21 > 0:54:24It doesn't get better than that.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26# Hey, Jude... #
0:54:26 > 0:54:29I think Paul McCartney was the booking of the night.
0:54:29 > 0:54:30OK, now you're just showing off.
0:54:30 > 0:54:36# Take a sad song And make it better. #
0:54:36 > 0:54:39Just to be on there with a Beatle, for everybody.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41Robbie was there, Annie Lennox was there,
0:54:41 > 0:54:45Leona, all these amazing singers.
0:54:45 > 0:54:47We were all trying to get close to him.
0:54:47 > 0:54:53# Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
0:54:53 > 0:54:57# Na, na, na, na, hey, Jude. #
0:55:01 > 0:55:04That was the absolute icing on the cake for me.
0:55:05 > 0:55:08I think Children In Need Rocks The Albert Hall was just really
0:55:08 > 0:55:11different to anything Children In Need have ever done before.
0:55:14 > 0:55:19I think it needs to keep fresh and new, and Gary Barlow did exactly that with that show.
0:55:19 > 0:55:24# Hey, Jude Judy, Judy, yeah, Judy, yeah. #
0:55:24 > 0:55:30Let's hope Gary, or somebody else, may come aboard and do it again for us.
0:55:32 > 0:55:35If they asked me to take it over, I'd do it.
0:55:35 > 0:55:38I would, I'd make it an annual event. I think it's that important.
0:55:40 > 0:55:43It was a brilliant night, everyone went on stage
0:55:43 > 0:55:47and made Children In Need an awful lot of money that night.
0:55:49 > 0:55:55Undoubtedly the evening was one of the milestones of what's called the
0:55:55 > 0:55:58journey of Children In Need,
0:55:58 > 0:56:00and one that nobody will ever forget.
0:56:00 > 0:56:06# Na, na, na, na, na, na
0:56:06 > 0:56:10# Na, na, na, na, hey, Jude
0:56:10 > 0:56:12# Jude, Jude, Jude!
0:56:12 > 0:56:18# Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
0:56:18 > 0:56:26# Na, na, na, na, hey, Jude. #
0:56:27 > 0:56:31Woo! You were great, you were great, you were great, you were great.
0:56:32 > 0:56:36You were fantastic, each of you!
