Julian Clary, Tameka Empson and Miranda Hart.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING The love is intense. Guys, I hope

you are ready for this because someone in the office had to write a

lot of e-mails to get you all here. Jennifer, you are head panelist, how

are you feeling about tonight? I am excited. I am hoping they can raise

laughs and money at the same time. She's good! I am auditioning for

Strictly. With the grand final just around

the corner only two acts The winner of the viewer

favourite lists she's ever done. I am going to have to lean a bit. Do

you want a coffee? Yes, please. All you have to to is sign

in or register to vote now Don't forget the vote

opens later in the show. So put down the phone,

Belinda, in Nottingham. I really hope Belinda in Nottingham

is convinced that was for her. If you have been affected by any of

the issues raised there, particularly if you are Belinda from

Nottingham, press the red button now.

As Sir Trevor McDonald famously once sang, let's get this party started.

. First up a woman who won the shiesh

woman in Birmingham award. We had to coax her to come here tonight, it's

Alison Hammond. Maybe a little too much spinning!

Yo, yo, what's up Comic Relief, welcome to my crib! Come on in. Come

on! Would you mind wiping your feet on the way in? Pretty sweet, eh?

It's massive! So, let's go downstairs into the area downstairs.

This is the... Oh, cinema! Oh my gosh! How amazing is this? All the

DVDs. Obviously this is where I do all my research for the interviews

that I do, the likes of Hugh Jackman, George Clooney. No biggie.

This is where I like to work out. Oh!

Can we cut that bit out because I have never even tried to lift this

up before. Fancy a dip? No problem. Got my own pool. Boom! You know it.

Oh, bubbles! So, this is where I host all my

par-tays! This property has been on the market All right, you have to

go, just go and hide, get out of here! This is a wonderful house, it

has absolutely everything. I don't know where to go! Let me show you

the kitchen now. I am sure you will love this.

Performing Missy Elliott's Get Your Freak On

# I know you dig the way I sw-sw-switch my style.

# People gon play me now, in and out of town.

# 'Cause I'm the best around with the crazy style.

Clearing Sky clear APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Let me in there. Bring it on! So much fun. How good was that? Did you

get your freak on? So freaked, brilliant. Well done. Slightly

singed by the fire. Brilliant. Well done. Not a track I know but I loved

it. As a pioneer at the forefront of American hip-hop and R how was

that for you? Well, the thing is it was convincing because I have only

ever see you being nice and friendly and charming and you were doing it

with such conviction, it was hard and scary. It was fierce! And

entertaining. Properly fierce. Do you need a defibrimmator? Yes, could

you get one. Don't shoot the messenger. My girl freaked it out

and to think... I heard somebody said Missy Elliott, UK, I don't

know, just saying freak out. Very good.

Is it time to be calling her Missy Hammond? Nice. Yes, for sure. For

sure. You is fly, you is sick. Yeah. She's got all the lingo. You have

your freak on, never take your freak off. I thought it was frightfully

good. Don't think you can get freak off until after the watershed. Thank

you, panel. If you want to see Missy Alison in the grand final then

holler, all the details are on the screen. The vote is not open yet.

Step away from that phone or I will set this one on you. Look at those

teeth, she can really bite you, you do not want the imprint of that on

your thigh as I know to my cost. Calls will cost 15p plus any network

charge. ... She's left me hanging! Sorry! There was a loose one there.

Listen, Belinda in Nottingham, that means you. You can also sign in or

register to vote. Come on. Bbc.co.uk/Red Nose Day. Alison, off

you go. Let's head to the posh seats.

All our generous giving stars are here for one main reason. That's

because the pad thai in the canteen is to die for. They're here to raise

money for the brilliant Comic Relief. It's simple to do your bit.

All it takes is a text. To donate ?5 text Give to 07205. To text ?10 text

Give to 70210. Please do give what you can. All the information is

running below my wriggling fingers now. You must be 16 or over. Will I

stop wriggling. I think I will. Once you know who the bill payer is see

if you can get a free takeaway out of them, as well. Extortion. Our

next couple have spent their TV careers in front of the telly saying

what they think. Here's your chance to do the same, it's Steph and Dom!

On the sofa, this is it! Look at them go!

Oh, for goodness sake! # In a perfect world... Tea? No, I am fine,

thank you. I would like us to do our research and watch the Comic Relief

thing we have signed up for. I am very excited, really looking forward

to it. Can't wait. ? Welcome to Let's Sing and Dance... Dancing? You

didn't say anything about dancing. I did. I thought we were going to

Africa. No, we are going to Elstree Studios. Really? Yes. I suppose it

can't be all that bad. Look at the curves on that. Are you joking me,

you do realise that's Matt Edmondson. What? Yes. We might have

to cross-dress, I don't know. Well, I am not too far against that but

they get good pop acts. Look at that. Lovely. That's Gareth Gates.

And they want us to sing, as well. Sing? Yes. You didn't say anything

about singing. Why did we sign up for this? I don't know. It's not

entirely too late to pull out, is it? In the rehearsal studio, please,

we are ready for you. Come on guys, first positions.

What's the worst that can happen? Five, six, seven, eight... Come on

guys. Oh, good grief! Can somebody get me a stiff drink?

Performing Meatloaf and Cher's Dead Ringer For Love, it's Steph and dom!

# Every night I grab some money and I go down to the bar

# I got my buddies and a beer I got a dream I need a car

# You got me begging on my knees c'mon and throw the dog a bone

# A man he doesn't live by rock'n'roll and brew alone

# Rock 'n roll and brew rock 'n roll and brew

# They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you

# Rock 'n roll and brew rock 'n roll and brew

# I know that you and I we got better things to do

# I don't know who you are or what you do or where you go

# I don't know anything about you baby

# But you're everything I'm dreaming of

# I don't know who you are but you're a real dead ringer for love

# Ever since I can remember you been hanging 'round this joint

# You been trying to look away but now you finally got the point

# I don't have to know your name and I won't tell you what to do

# But a girl like me can't live by only rock 'n roll and brew

# Rock 'n roll and brew rock 'n roll and brew

# They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to you

# Rock 'n roll and brew rock 'n roll and brew

# I know that you and I we got better things to do

# I don't know who you are or what you do or where you go

# I don't know anything about you baby

# But you're everything I'm dreaming of

# I don't know who you are but you're a real dead ringer for love

All that hair! One of the most flammable things I have touched in

my life. It is like Prince Charles. Your highness, welcome. We are going

to go straight to you. After seeing that, do you wish you could turn

back time? To when? It is amazing what you can do when you get off the

sofa, isn't it. Who knew? Who knew? Dom, look at you. You can't help

yourself. No. Desperately seeking Susanish. But I loved it. Very good.

Miranda. They have proved they would doing my for love. Should they have

done that? I think they should have done that. I am sort of scared and

entertained in equal measure, mainly by the wig, which should be bigger.

It should be bigger. Not the hair, that is not possible. I mean this in

a positive way, there was excellent dad dancing. Loved it. I mean that

in a positive way. It was excellent. Jennifer, did they Meatloaf, did it

give you the hots or the trots? The hots. That is not a bad look is it.

That is pretty good. I want to see it again but not sober.

Jennifer, you have caught her eye. That is all I am stay saying. If you

would like to see them perform again in the final the details are on the

screen. If you want to adopt the hair, you can do that after the

show. The vote isn't open yet so hold your horses, Strut your way

over to the posh seats where you belong darlings.

They are in love aren't they. Very in love. Strike a pose. Don't you

move as still to come... Pete and Ellie who have been effecting their

magical partnership in reher Sams. And Her Majesty the keen loved it.

Sally Lindsay, who has been getting into glam rock spirit. Guy, could

somebody tune my guitar please? Plus see what happens when ballroom's

finest Craig Revel Horwood hits the Vegas of the north.

APPLAUSE I like that. All of that, plus Sarah

Cox will join us to tell us about her 24 hours danceathon for Comic

Relief. I have any disco pants and Deeley boppers which are made out of

Cat Deeley. Our next bunch are known as journalist, today they are here

to prove they were born this way. It is The One Show Reporters.

The One Show! Sleek. Sexy. And... Oh, that spoiled it. Don't worry

Michelle. We will cut that bit out. Well that is all we have time for

for tonight. All that remains to be said is a very special thank you to

our One Show reporters, there they are. Thanks to Ewan, Alex, to

Michelle who I think it is safe to say hasn't mastered the unicycle and

to Dom for that special report on taking the sting out of bee keeping

in the Home Counties. My pleasure. Guy, before you go, got brilliant

news for you, OK, you have been asked to perform on Let's Sing and

Dance for Comic Relief. Amazing. The crew are delighted. We have some

information for you. You need the follow, Ewan, four pounds of streaky

bacon and 3 gammon steaks. On it. Alex can you get your hands on an

old fashioned telephone. Michelle. Four dozen cuddly toys, frogs,

previously. You need red tape. And Dom ark roll of hazard tape.

Consider it done. Best of luck with it.

What do we do with these? Wear them? Wear them!

Performing Lady Gaga's Born This Way -

# She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on

# There's nothing wrong with loving who you are

# She said, "'Cause he made you perfect, babe"

# "So hold your head up girl and you'll go far,

# I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way

# I was born this way

# Right track baby, I was born this way

# You're black, white, beige, chola descent

# Left you outcast, bullied or teased

# 'Cause baby you were born this way

# I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way

# Baby I was born this way

# Right track, baby, I was born this way

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE .

Oh! Oh! Brilliant. 11 different types of madness. Look at you and

sausages and chops. Can I just say your choice of outfit Ewan could not

be rasher. It really... Look at his plates of meat there. You must be

knackered. That was a hell of a festival. Very strong work. A

terrible experience up there with the straps. Quite grippy. I think I

have torn a hole! We will go to the judges now. Julian, do you think we

have found our next Super Bowl performance? They are scary close up

and bizarre and I, I think people watching the show maybe to see

well-known people do something out of their come fofrt zone and attempt

to retain a scrap of dignity. I think you managed that. Tam can, was

that a one show wonder or have they go got to take it forward? I think

they broke the mould, man, this is a unique piece, this is something that

I like you at home to just donate, because after that performance, you

have to pick up the phone guys. Phone, guys. Well done.

APPLAUSE Well done guys.

Can I ask if you went Gaga for that lot? I did. I am speaking with a red

nose on. That is a commitment to Comic Relief. Commitment to outfits

to dancing, to the whole thing, I literally can't speak with this on.

It was brilliant. I loved it. Thank you for doing it to Comic Relief.

Amazing. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

With The One Show reporters, you will need to reach for the telephone

and vote for them. The performance artists, thank you please join all

the other people on the posh seats. Just saw Ewan's silverside there. Up

next a magical duo hoping to make the rest of the competition

disappear. Say how do to Pete Firman and his glamorous assistant Ellie

Taylor. Ellie Taylor.

Pete Firman. Comedy magic.

Two worlds collide. I didn't mean literally guys.

Pete and I have been put together for Let's Sing and Dance for Comic

Relief and I cannot tell you how excited I am.

For me Pete is the best magician to ever grace this land.

He just has it all. He has pizazz. He has style. He has a bit more

pizazz. He is the man. I think I might be a bit star struck when I

meet him, because guess who is going to be his glamorous assistant. This

guy. Today we begin our rehearsals. I can't wait. Hello Pete. Good

evening Ellie. So nice to meet you. A of course it is. Before we start

can we do some spells. Can I stop you there. These aren't spells.

These are illusions and some take decades and decades of rehearsal and

practise, you can't go waveling your wand round. Just one Tynely

illusion. I don't think so. Please, please, just one, one tiny illusion.

I don't think so. A little tiny one, just one tiny one. Go on, it will be

good. Steady. Abra cad bra. Don't worry, hocus pocus.

You just wouldn't listen would you? Sorry...

Performing Little Mix's Black Magic -

# Is your lover playing on your side?

# All the girls on the block knockin' at my door

# Wanna know what it is make the boys want more

# And it's called, and it's called, and it's called black magic

Oh, Pete and Ellie! Gang, listen, singing and dancing

and magic. And extra women coming out of baskets. So many women! Have

we left a long enough pause? So, first of all, Miranda, what would

the Magic Circle make of that? Let's sing and do magic for Comic Relief,

amazing. Could it be magic? Yes, it could. Do you see...

APPLAUSE Stop it! Amazing. To be able to sing

and do all of that concentrating, as well. Multitasking, amazing.

Jennifer, did they cast a spell on you? They did, yes. That was very

brilliant. You probably were singing and dancing at the same time but I

end up being annoyed that I don't know where they came from, those

women. Where did they come from? You can't say. Women in a basket. I

respect your oath. Julian, finally, Hocus Pocus or Hocus Bogus. Well, my

magic circle was... Our job is done. That's another circle we can't

reveal details about. If you thought wonderful Pete and Ellie pulled it

out of the bag all the details are at the bottom of the screen. Or are

they? Yes, they are. Don't vote yet as the voting isn't open and it will

ruin the magic for everyone. Put your hands together a bit faster for

Pete and Ellie. Off you go to the posh seats.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Where is this going? Hello, sailor.

Our final act this evening... I can hear the ball joint creak! Our final

act this evening has come all the way from Mount Pleasant. She went

past the Hatfield gallery if you are interested. She's making her way to

our hydraulic floor lift, it's Sally Lindsay! .

Sally Lindsay! Set that woman loose! She will be fine. It's Monday

morning and actress Sally Lindsay arrives for filming of her TV show,

Mount Pleasant. Derek, how is that lovely wife of yours? I am not

actually married, madam! Of course you are not! My name's Robert,

madam. I know it says number one on my dressing room door but I am one

of the team, we are all mates. I keep it real. One big happy family.

Morning! Hi! I am a make-up artist's dream

actually, very soft, very smooth skin. Not like the other members of

cast. I mean, I hardly need any make-up at all. In fact there's not

many actresses who are this wrinkle-free at the age of 34.

I know it's comedy, but I intend to take my performance on Let's Sing

and Dance for Comic Relief very seriously. I see it as a gift to my

public. Argh! Bobby! Go for a drink if you want.

Yeah. Performing Slade's Cum

On Feel the Noize - # So you think I got an evil mind,

well I'll tell you honey # So you think my singing's out

of time, well it makes me money # So you say I got a funny face

I ain't got no worries APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

Noddy! Come on, Noddy. Come on, downing it. Look at that windmill.

Well done. They're still alive. Now... What was

all that about? That was magnificent. Is this something you

would wear on a quiet night in, would you consider that outfit at

any point? You look so pleased with yourself. You were channelling

Noddy, weren't you? What a bizarre evening we have all had. Stranger

and stranger. It's like we are all in a dream. Tameka, glam rock or

glam shock? It's a bit of both. Sally, you left the building and

this is what was left. Talk about just going for it. You really went

for it and I was there. Was that a potential Glastonbury headliner,

Jennifer? Yeah, that's my era, totally. Somewhere between Noddy and

a Diddy man. Keep that suit. That's not coming off. It was brilliant.

People have wondered what Noddy Holder might make of this, Sally. We

asked him. Well done, Sal! You are now a fully qualified rock chick.

So, keep on rocking! Get her on the phone, I want to do a duet.

You look more like Noddy Holder than he does. Panel, thank you so much.

If Sally Slade the rest of the competition and had you Noddying

your head to the beat, all the details are on the screen. But

remember voting isn't open yet. Thank you, head over to the posh

seats. That's it. All our star acts have performed. Look at them over

there. It's like a cautionary tale for children wanting to go into show

business right there. Jennifer, presiding over the panel like a lady

Len Goodman or should I say Jen Goodman. Could you give us a summary

of tonight's events, please. Total comedy madness with a bit of

dancing. I loved it. They were so brilliant, all of them. So strong.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Very strong. As always it's your

vote at home that really counts. With two places left in the final

there is only one thing to do... Voting is now open!

# Call me... Right. The reading glasses are on

and the blank sheets of paper are in hand. Good evening. Welcome to fake

news. You are not Hugh Edwards. Fake. There is nothing about you

that says George Aligah. Fake. If you would like to vote for tonight's

winner calls cost 15p plus any network access charge. Validated but

be sure to get the bill payer's permission before you call. You can

vote online for free. At bbc.co.uk/Red Nose Day. The vote

closes in approximately 13 minutes, so the Russians told me. I would get

to it if I were you. Don't vote if you are watching on demand, well,

you know, that's in the past. Excuse me, news just in from our

entertainment correspondent, we just hired him, George Osbourne, ladies

and gentlemen. Satirical! Now, breaking entertainment news, sting

has lost his favourite album. He has asked The Police to check their

records. Time for that quick reminder of tonight's stunning

performances and those all-important numbers. Three, two, one...

APPLAUSE So, that's all the details you need.

So you know what to do. Vote, what are you waiting for? While our

performers whip off back stage to nick the free stuff from their

dressing rooms, by the way my waistband is studded with mini

Twixes right now. Here's a reminder of why we are here. That's to raise

money for the brilliant Comic Relief. Here's a film from Sara Cox

on the orphaned children she met in Kenya. Godfrey is ten. He recently

lost his mum. His brother leaves to find work each day and he is left

alone. Lorner, a community volunteer funded by your donations knows just

how hard it's been for Godfrey. It's very painful, after their mum died

he is shy. Lorner visits Godfrey and supports him as much as she can. Can

I ask you about your mummy. You are such a brave boy. He's

definitely grieving. He is definitely still grieving for his

mum but he is ten, he doesn't know how to handle grieve. The only

support that they have is through Lorner coming around. You just want

to keep hugging that woman because she's amazing. I then discovered

that after losing both parents Godfrey's house had burned down. Are

they your shoes, Godfrey. If it wasn't for you helping people

like Lorner I don't know what would happen to such a sweet smart little

boy like that. So... You know, and there's so many boys like that, he

is not by himself. There's so many families who are like this. That,

you know, we have just got to try and help. Give whatever you can

give. We will be so grateful. And it will help people like Lorner to help

little boys like Godfrey. To give ?5 text Give to 70205 or to

give ?10 text Give to 70210. Thank you.

We are pleased to tell you that Lorner continues to visit Godfrey

and his brother at least three times a week

Godfrey has now also been enrolled in a support group

This is all possible thanks to your donations

That's right all it takes is a text and all the details you need

Please remember texts will cost your donation

plus your standard network message charge and 100% of your donation

You must be 16 or over and please ask the bill payer's permission.

For full terms and conditions and more information go

And Sara Cox will be joining us live to tell us

all about her 80's dance-a-thon - but first here with her new single

Ciao Adios please put your hands together for the brilliant

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE .

Now as you know, there are loads of ways to

fundraise for Comic Relief - our very own Miranda

undertook five days of mad cap challenges all to

raise money for this wonderful cause.

To tell us more about her challenge, please welcome Radio 2 DJ Sara Cox!

APPLAUSE Foxy. Come on. Hello. Hey girls.

Sorry I shouted. Not at all. That was a very powerful film that one. I

have never been over to Nairobi before and I have never done a film

for Comic Relief. You watch on your couch at home and you think that is

a different planet. Look at it, it seems far away from your own lives.

Goderie, looked round my phone, found the apps and you think he is

the same at my little boy at home. The same at our kids, he has been

born into this tough life, so yes, it was incredible. Coxy, tell us my

love, that was a firm slap. I might be injured and I can't dance for 24

hours. This is your challenge, what is going on?? My sounds of the '80s,

because I do an 80s show. I have to dance for 24 hours, Solidly? You

will hear it on Radio 2 and watch it on the Red Button, all the amazing

DJs, when they press it, you will see my dancing. Lots of live music

from the 80s. It will be incredible. When will it start? 9.30am, Monday

morning until 9.30 Tuesday morning. It starts in the morning. I know,

thank you for the ooh! You will have your disco boot boss on at 9am. How

will you get through the 4am slot? One word, two words. Trevor Nelson,

he will DJ for me. We are delighted you have joined us. Only one way we

can send you off. Get your pelvis into second gear, Sara Cox. I am

going to get you to put this headband on. Remind to the '80s.

# She's a maniac # Maniac on the floor

# And she dances like she's never danced before. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE I cannot believe Sara will be in the

'80s for a whole 24 hours. We never left it. I miss the puff ball skirt.

I Miss My jaw line. While we fast forward back to the naughties it is

time to find out if the people of Blackpool... It is holding my

forehead in place. Very cheap and easy way of getting a face-lift.

Good. Time to find out if the people of Blackpool turned Craig Revel

Horwood's frown upside down. Don't suppose you do sea bass? You

will have my finest cod and chips and like them. A face like a wet

weekend. Cheer up, chuck, it's Blackpool.

# I must sound crazy what I'm about to say

# Sunshine's here you can take a break

# Like I don't care baby, by the way # Because I'm happy

# If you feel like a room without a roof

# Because I'm happy # Clap along if you feel like

happiness is a truth # Because I'm happy

# Clap along if you know what happiness is to you

# Because I'm happy # Clap along if you feel like that's

what you want to do. # # Give me all you got, no holding

back # Yeah

# I should probably warn you I'll be just fine

# Yeah # Don't waste your time

# Because I'm happy # Clap along if you feel like a room

without a roof # Because I'm happy

# Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth

# Because I'm happy # Clap along if you know what

happiness is to you # Because I'm happy

# Clap along if you feel like that's what you want to do.

# Happy, happy, happy had been happy, happy, happy

# -- happy, happy, happy # Happy, happy, happy

# Because I'm happy. # CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

What did you think of that? Darling it was a dance disaster!

I am not going to lie. Slightly fancy Craig Revel Horwood. We are

crushing on him. As you saw during that film the vote is now closed.

Don't vote now but you may be charged. A vote isn't really closed

until Barbara Windsor says it is closed. The vote is now closed.

Coming up with have a very special performance from the hit West End

musical School of Rock, before that here is Emeli Sande's report.

And please be aware, that some viewers may find scenes

In this hospital 234 Uganda, children are dangerously ill because

they haven't been vaccinated against pneumonia.

Nurse Betty is on the front line. How often do you see cases of severe

pneumonia? Every day we see them. Five-month-old Joffrey's lungs are

filled with fluid and he is struggling to breathe We have to

give oxygen therapy, because of the resources that oxygen is being

shared using the same source, which was supposed to be used by one

patient. S sharing the same oxygen is Jeremiah, six months old.

Caroline ten months, and Mohammed two months.

Also suffering from pneumonia. I am kind of in shock as to the

conditions. Really just feel very angry that children were suffering

on this level. Almost needlessly. The more we can do to prevent

children from getting pneumonia, we should try to do that.

Joffrey wasn't vaccinated and his condition remains critical.

I am sorry to have to tell you this but he didn't survive. If he had

been vaccinated against pneumonia he would have had a better chance of

survival. This can't keep happening. Children can't keep dying needlessly

from conditions that can be prevented by vaccines that can cost

Now it's time for a very special performance direct

from the West End stage - singing and playing live, please hand

in your homework and put your hands together for the cast of the smash

Mew Sybil speaks to you and what is what matters most. You ever play

electric guitar. My dad thinks it a ea waste of time.

# Grab a hold of your axe and try to pluck out this riff

# Let your shoulders relax you don't wanna be so stiff

# Keep on going don't stop take it over the top

# Make each note really pop squeeze out every last drop

What's that big lumpy thing you are playing? The cello.

# Turn a cello this way and it's practically like a bass

# Pop the strings when you play and watch how you shred my face

# Keep on rockin' each note, grab it right by the throat

# Keep the rhythm afloat don't forget to emote

# If you play the piano you can play the keys

I only play classical. I don't think I can. Get over here.

# So just loosen it up and strut your expertise

# Take a look at this music and let your mind expand

All right, who's going to be my drummer? You play the cymbals!

# Sit your butt at the skins and try to whack out a beat

# Feel the groove in your pins then slowly turn up the heat

# With a rat-a-tat-tat on the bass and hi-hat

# Make it juicy and fat yes exactly like that

# I need a couple of roadies I need someone on tech

# It means I'm putting you in charge of the whole damn thing

That's it. Keep rocking. Rock it out.

# Now repeat after me, I pledge allegiance to the band

I promise to give Mr Schneebly full command

# And with me in control of the band as a whole

# We will rock and we'll roll with our heart and our soul

Oh, yeah! Now it's the moment you have all

been waiting for. Is Michael Portillo's Great Railway Journeys

on? Not quite. It's this. The results are in! Babs has said it, so

the results are in. Do you have the sparkly envelope of expectation? No,

I don't. I believe it's being delivered via the conga!

# Come on, shake your body, do the conga...

Gosh! Now, with the results in hand it's time to welcome back our five

star acts. Alison Hammond. Steph and Dom.

The One Show Reporters. Pete and Ellie. And Sally Lindsay.

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING If you have just tuned in, no your

meds haven't kicked in a gear. Tonight five star acts sang and

danced for you but only two can go through. I know you know this, I am

recapping for Melanie. The act with the highest number of viewers votes

will have a guaranteed place in the grand final. The second and third

will face the panel who will choose their favourite. That's why they're

here, Melanie. Oh! Time to cue the low, dramatic lighting.

It's too dark! I am scared. It's just your excuse to touch me, stop

it! Where are we, it's too dark! One of the many reasons Mel didn't get

into drama school. For a moment there I thought they'd moved BBC One

online. Thanks, Jennifer. The great British public, that's you, have

spoken. We can reveal the top three in the viewer vote. In no particular

order... There was no money for animation, so I have to do this for

a bit. In no particular order... Let me see, as well. The first act is...

Can't see. There we go. Sally Lindsay.

APPLAUSE Well done, Sal. Also in the top

three is... The One Show Reporters. APPLAUSE

Thank you. Thank you. And, finally, in the top three

it's... Alison Hammond!

APPLAUSE So, sadly, that means we need to say

goodbye to Steph and Dom, and Pete and Ellie, you have been

magnificent. Off to the posh seats, my darling. Well done.

Right, simmer down, team. We will now reveal the winner of the public

vote, the fate of the other two is in the hands of our panel. The

winner of tonight's... The audience are committing, I like to hear that,

the winner of tonight's Let's Sing and Dance for Comic Relief is...

The One Show Reporters! Congratulations, The One Show

Reporters. Well done guys. Gang, cling very

close. Well done to you. It's building there. The heat that's

building in that outfit, extraordinary. Guys, were you

expecting this? We weren't expecting it at all! We have to do that again!

O, yes. You need to get right up on that harness, my darling. Your

gusset awaits. We look forward to seeing you all again in the final.

Off you go and prepare for your winners' performance. Well done

guys. Oh, Lindsay, Hammond. Come on, my darling. Come on gang. Now this

means there is just one place left in the grand final. Who will join

The One Show Reporters? Will it be Alison Hammond or Sally Lindsay?

It's all down to the panel to decide before they do, here is reminder of

their cracking performances. # People sing around

# People gather around # People jump around...

# Well, I tell you honey # I don't know why

# No, I don't know why...

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Right, this is a tough one. This is

a really, really tough one. So who is it going to be guys? Alison or

Sally? Awesome foursome, we are going to need one name. I think that

was a cry for help there! The medical team will be with you

soon, sir. Miranda, one name and your reason for that name

forthwithly. These women are fantastic and amazing time and

energy they've given and watching those appeal films earlier, that's

why we are here. We are also here for the entertainment and playing

this game and so I am going to go for... She came out first, she

rocked it, she freaked. For me it's Alison!

All right, Tameka. Impossible choice, brilliant. This is the

hardest choice the panel have had to make. I need one name and your

reason, please, darling. Oh, I don't like doing this bit because I want

to put you both in. Oh, both performers were excellent. There was

no apology, you came out, you smashed it. Do me a favour... We

need a name, Tameka. In three seconds. Alison... Sorry! You can't

have two, just one. Come on. I can't do it. Do me a favour. Come on,

love. Contractually, you must. OK, OK. Alison.

This is getting interesting. Two for Alison. Julian, who are you going to

put three and why, quite quickly, Julian. I have also lost the power

of speech. I love you both. I am going to go for the person that

surprised me most which was Sally. Jennifer. This means the decision

lies with you. I say that, whatever you decide it will probably be a

tie-break or we will see. What happens if it's a tie-break. Leave

that... Hopefully somebody in here will tell me what to do like they

always do. Like they always do in everything. A name, please, my love.

I am going to go with Sally for the mutton chops alone. It's a

tie-break! Jennifer, we look well. Now we go to

the swimwear round. Panel, I hate to say this you have

been utterly useless and you have not managed to reach a majority

decision. Two votes each. We are going to go back to the viewers'

votes to decide the winner. That's the best way. The act with the most

viewer votes and heading through to the grand final is... I can't bear

the tension! I am going to brace myself. I can't

bear it! Bracing. Bracing.

Bracing. Alison Hammond!

Well done. You were amazing. Massive congrats to Alison. Sadly, it's

goodbye to our lovely Sally Lindsay. Sally! Extraordinary. Let's hear it

for all our abilities tonight, please. They all gave their time.

See you next week, darling. It's been another phenomenal night

of song and dance. It's a massive thanks to all our incredible star

andings and our fantastic panel. We are back for the grand final next

Saturday at 6. 3535pm with six fabulous finalists, you will not

want to miss it. For now we will leave you with your winner tonight,

it's The One Show Reporters! # She rolled my hair

and put my lipstick on # There's nothing wrong

with loving who you are # She said, "'Cause he made

you perfect, babe" # "So hold your head up

girl and you'll go far, # I'm on the right track, baby,

I was born this way # We could change this whole world

with a piano Stop! Stop! I said

a little bit of your guitar. Just...
