Children in Need 2007

and the first technical problem of the night with a mic failure.

Is CIN streaming again this year? Last year they had the BBC East version online.

Really sloppy. I know it can't really be helped, but it does look really bad, particularly as she had to rush on twice with back ups.

Strange No scottish into from Jackie bird this year?

IF this CIN is full of music then it crap again before its started!

I know technical problems happen, and sometimes you can't predict them, however, having a mic failure on the opening performance to the annual flagship fundrasing tv programme from the BBC is quite bad!

Belfast still using the old Pudsey and CiN design!!!!

Pudsey seems to have stopped tearing, but it seems that he's been at too many E-numbers - he's rather too hyperactive IMO.

Terry made a point about POV

Well I like music performances, I don't particularly enjoy CIN specials of EastEnders, Butterflies, Vicar of Dibley etc.

Mr Mead had better watch out, if there are people who will look at Sir Terry's trousers instead of his face.

I can 't stand these charity progs. I never watch them or get involved in fundraising for them. Live aid, comic relief children in need. I just gett a feeling that these events are not all what they claim to be. Where does the millions raised really go? There are some unscrupulous people out there and what with the phone in scandal coming to light recently, my doubts are not unjustified.
I'm not an uncharitable person. I do my bit for several charities. Just these type of tv money raising marathons brings out the sceptic in me.

Ok I've done me bit- given my £5 for wearing jeans to work.

But is it me- isn't this a 7 hour Paul O'Grady show with a guest host???
