Children in Need

Watch Newscast's Adam Fleming complete his challenge from Pudsey Bear BBC for Children in Need.

DIY SOS and Children in Need join forces to transform The Joshua Tree, a children’s cancer support charity, in an emotional and ambitious special build.

Pudsey joins Holly Hamilton and Connor Phillips as they meet some of the organisations and young people that benefit from BBC Children in Need. Pudsey travels to Omagh for the Children in Need choir, and Cate Conway joins Connor to walk three-legged from Portadown to Newry.

The curtain goes up on a very special episode of the show, with two teams of comedians swapping the stage for antiques shopping in Sussex. Cracking the jokes on the red team are Russell Kane and Ignacio Lopez, alongside expert Danny Sebastian. And hoping to giggle their way to golden gavels are Stephen K Amos and Jo Caulfield, with their expert Kate Bliss. Away from the antiques fair, Russell spends time with a remarkable 15-year-old boy who cares for his younger brother and visits a young carers project in Essex, funded by BBC Children in Need. Back at the auction, the laughter continues as Tim Weeks wields his gavel to make as much money as possible for Pudsey Bear, selling loads of extra-special lots to a packed sale room.

BBC Children in Need returns with a jam-packed evening of comedy sketches, live music and famous faces, all to raise life-changing funds for children and young people across the UK.
