Why is supporting Comic Relief so special to you?

I’ve always been aware of the incredible work that Comic Relief does - it’s one of those shows that I’ve watched since I was a little girl. It’s such a joyous charity and an incredible way to make money for many causes that are close to my heart, but especially right now with food poverty and mental health support needed more than ever.

What are your fondest memories of Comic Relief?

Getting to stay up late as a little girl to watch the show! We were always calling in to donate and that feeling like a really special thing to do. At school it would always be a big thing as well... non-uniform day, people baking cakes, we’d get to wear our noses in class! It was always really fun and silly – I love the humour around Comic Relief and Red Nose Day.

Do you have any pre-show routines you do before hosting the live show?

The routine is literally - whack on some music, put on some make up, get a fancy frock on, take some pics and we’re good to go! Music and glam is all we need!

In one sentence, how would you describe this year’s appeal show?

Full of surprises, lots of fun and of course lots of heartfelt moments to show everyone how their money can help. where the money goes

Finally, can you tell us a joke?

Why is Santa good at Karate? He has a black belt!
