Outnumbered for Red Nose Day

I love Comic Relief, I regularly work late into the night letting people know what islanders are doing and helping collect money – I’m not this year but that’s because we’re going regional.

However I will be going around the island all day taking photos, giving encouragement and generally making a pest of myself.

I was hoping to have some funny ‘local’ video to put on the BBC Jersey website as part of my Stand Up For Jersey idea – but user interactivity in that way wasn’t never going to work.

Basically the idea was to encourage people to submit their jokes about Jersey, funny stories from the island and hilarious situations that local comedian Charlie Daze could then turn into a stand-up routine.

This routine would then be performed in front of a camera for bbc.co.uk/jersey and live on BBC Radio Jersey on Red Nose Day – alas the gods of caution put rain to that parade.

And this year my leg hair is staying on my legs.

Still at least I have the ever amazing Outnumbered to look forward to and any other, easy to do, Red Nose Day ideas between now and next Friday are welcome.

I love outnumbered but am often relieved (having three children myself) at how un nervingly accurate it is.
