A lot of money has been raised for Comic Relief for good causes both here and abroad....63 million pounds....which makes a total of 1.3 billion since it began.......I watched the programme on it which was on all night last Friday......it is a great cause and it's good to see where the money goes....but as far as the "comedy" is concerned it's a "relief" when it's over.....it seems a lot of effort goes into various comedy sketches which fall flat......for example there was a spoof of Mamma Mia which was totally unfunny and pointless....plus another featuring a reunion of the stars of Four Wedding and a Funeral which was a complete disaster......or maybe I am missing something.....it would be better if they simply showed the charity sections and left the comedy out.....or find something that is actually funny. What I find a bit unacceptable about all this money being sent to other countries is we have our own major problems like lack of police and lack of money for the NHS.....and the homeless....it's all very
