Children In Need [What A Music Video!]

Seeing there’s no official thread for last night’s Children In Need event on BBC One, I thought I’d share a link to the charity single video that Peter Kay was involved in.

Over 100 of tv’s children’s characters were brought together, a colection of characters spanning 50 years, all originally voiced for the event. For the full video each character would have to be moved over 10,000 times, and the production if not copyright free for charity would’ve cost over �1million!

So here it is… see how many characters you recognise. Or depending on age and country, how many you don’t recognise.

Say what you think… I think it’s amazing personally.

Don’t forget to donate to Children In Need, or to purchase this Charity Single off iTunes now. Every single penny makes a huge difference to the lives of disadvantaged children & young people across the UK.
