I thought he died this week?

He did - they were supposed to have done a sketch though, hopefully pre-recorded so they still show it.

That's how I feel about it too Joe.  I donate, but I can't be chewed with all the hype surrounding it.  And for that reason I am going out to night to watch an AC/DC tribute band and the Mill Volvo Theatre.  Live Wire, they're supposed to be rather good.

^^^ Aww I like Kylie, from what I've seen of her concerts on tv she puts on an extravaganza for her fans to enjoy. As I watched 2 episodes of Corrie and then the Jungle I didn't see much of CIN, when I did switch over at different times it was always a real life story of a child overcoming a very difficult and challenging experience. Their courage was very moving and humbling to listen to.

 

What's also incredible is that despite so many are experiencing financial difficulties the British public have risen to the occasion and donated money that amounts to millions, for me that's the real story, the unselfishness and willingness to help those that need help.
