Never really understood why they launch it just before Children in Need, but it's Blue Peter Appeal time once again as they launch the Shoe Biz Appeal for Aids orphans in Malawi.
I think it's a new one - this year they are collecting shoes - one million of them, or 500,000 pairs to be precise.
These will be sold in the third world with the proceeds then used to help aids orphans in Malawi - presumably by paying the air fairs of international popstars so they can go out and buy a child!

It's the 45th appeal - be interesting to know how much they've raised over the years.
