Red Nose Day is here which means an evening of entertainment on the BBC with Comic Relief.
No one can deny that the last two years have been mostly unfunny, so any excuse to see celebrities act like absolute balloons in the name of charity, works for us.
Here’s all you need to know about Red Nose Day 2022 – from the hosts to the highlight turns.
When is Comic Relief 2022?
The entire day of Friday, March 18 is booked out in our calendars for Red Nose Day.
We may even do something incredibly wacky and wear corporate clothing to our home offices, instead of pjs.
But the TV stuff kicks off at 7pm on BBC One, live from the Media City studios in Salford, Manchester.
As usual, all the televised shenanigans – live sketches, funny one-offs etc – will be interspersed with reports on how the money we’ve donated has helped those in need. Both home and abroad.

Who’s on Comic Relief this year?
The show is going to be presented by Alesha Dixon, David Tennant, Zoe Ball, Paddy McGuinness and Comic Relief royalty, Sir Lenny Henry.
It will also feature sketches from French and Saunders, who take on The Repair Shop.
And Jack Whitehall will be doing something posh and amusing too, no doubt.
Strictly Come Dancing favourites Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice will be providing some dance-based entertainment while David Walliams and Matt Lucas are also on the bill.
