So what is "Red Nose Day"...
Since its launch in 1988, Red Nose Day has become something of a British institution. It’s the day, every two years, when people across the land can get together and do something funny for money at home, school and work.
There’s a fantastic night of TV on the BBC, with comedy and entertainment to inspire the nation to give generously.Comic Relief spends the money raised by Red Nose Day to help people living tough lives across the UK and Africa. The charity website can tell you more here.
In more recent years, the Comic Relief experience has expanded into Sport Relief so on the "odd" years (2001, 2003 etc) we do funny stuff and on the "even" years there are sporting events such as the England v Rest of the World football match where each team is made up of current footballers, past footy legends and celebrities.
This year is an odd year so we are all going silly...
