I've watched pretty much all night and it's been brilliant. V sad watching the clips but all of the celebs have been fantastic sports and it's been absolutely hilarious at times. Everyone has done so well, (Eddie Izard 43 marathons in 51 days,) and, whatever the other criticisms of Davina, she was bliddy amazing in the Lands End to John O'Groats cycling challenge. Special mention for James Cordon who was soooooo funny, and Frank Skinner too. Then there's the gawjuss, seccsy, faints with delight at seing him again, Daveed Ginola
(Oh BTW Stoory, Duncan Bannatyne came 2nd)

I agree with everything you said above (too lazy to type it again, lol)...David Beckham was also a good sport **swoons**....and Ginola, he gets better with age

I don't usually watch these things, usually a channel flicker, but, Tonights was brilliant I really enjoyed it, so did the OH (he's not a TV watcher either)

James Cordon was hilarious, massive respect to Eddie Izzard too, and yes Chris Moyles slightly redeemed himself in my eyes too....great night of TV...

Did anyone watch Helen Skelton on the TV the other day, she  kayaked 2000 miles down the Amazon, really enjoyed that as well....brillant

Blue Peter presenter Helen Skelton completes epic 2000-mile trip down Amazon by kayak

BLUE PETER presenter Helen Skelton has paddled an astonishing 2000 miles down the Amazon for Sport Relief - smashing two world records on the way.

Action girl Helen paddled her kayak for 366 hours over more than a month, making more than one million strokes.

And she set two records, for the longest solo journey by kayak and the longest distance in a kayak in 24 hours by a woman - both awaiting a rubber stamp by Guinness.

Elated Helen said:"My bottom is bruised, my shoulders are sore and the muscles in my neck are making it hard to differentiate between my head and my shoulders but I am proud of the war wounds."

Amazingly, Helen, 26, had never been in a kayak before she started training.

She set off on January 20 from Nauta in Peru and finished 2010 miles downstream at Almerim in Brazil.

Helen paddled around 60 miles a day for six days a week to reach the target, enduring blisters, insect bites and heatstroke. She was greeted by cheering children and celebratory gunfire as she crossed the finish line.

Helen said: "It's been a massive adventure that's thrown up challenges most days.

"It's been tough but I've had enough highs to make it more than worthwhile.

"Get stuck in and you never know where you might end up."

Her epic journey will be shown in two Blue Peter specials on March 16 and 17.

I always feel rather uneasy when reminded that malaria is the biggest killer of children I suppose. Then I look at our own society, for example a group of people in say a dept. store cafeteria ceaselessly whinging about nothing in particular. I've had a bad week really and feel emotionally spent. Nothing left for laughter or tears.
