Comic Relief is a telephon shown by the BBC every two years on rotation with Sport Relief with all donations helping out deprivied famillies in the UK and in Africa. Previous years have had the Little Britian comedian, David Walliams swimming the channel and riding a bicycle from John o'Groats to Lands End. This year, he is doing some more extreme. From Noon today (Saturday) to Noon tomorrow (Saturday) he will be working on a 24 hour marathon of panel shows. The panel shows that will be featured will be a mix of current ones (Would I Lie to You?, Have I Got News For You, Celebrity Juice) and some old ones (What's My Line, Blankety Blank/Match Game, Whose Line Is It Anyway). Although it states panel shows, they are bending the rules and including shows such as Give Us a Clue and The Generation Game.
It has been announced yesterday that the 24 hour marathon will be available for non UK residents via the BBC website.
The live stream can be seen here from Noon today (7am EST, 4am PST).
