Children in Need 2016: Graham Norton joins all-star presenting line-up

[super jumbe]

Graham Norton will be leading Children in Need?s star-studded presenting line-up this year ? and he?s keen to honour the late Sir Terry Wogan.

Strictly Come Dancing presenter Tess Daly, Radio 1 DJ Greg James, Paralympic gold medalist Ade Adepitan, Capital?s Marvin Humes and The Saturdays? Rochelle Humes, will also join the Irish host.

?It is a huge privilege to join the presenting team for the Children in Need Appeal show,? Graham said. ?This year we?d love to raise as much money as we possibly can in honour of the late Sir Terry Wogan.?

Terry passed away in January this year, after a short but brave battle with cancer; he had become the face of Children in Need during his long-running career, presenting the high-profile telethon for over three decades.

Reflecting on her time working alongside the loveable broadcaster, Rochelle added: ?I will never forget the amazing experience of presenting Children in Need with Sir Terry Wogan. Children in Need is truly one of the highlights of my year and I can?t wait for this year?s show.



Tess, who previously presented the show alongside Sir Terry, said it was an ?honour and pleasure? to work on Children in Need again and ?make a real difference to the lives of disadvantaged children and young people right here in the UK.?

Meanwhile, Director of BBC content Charlotte Moore said: ?I know the nation will dig deep and do the late Sir Terry Wogan proud with their generous fundraising.?

Children in Need currently supports 2,400 projects across the UK that help children facing a range of disadvantages including poverty and deprivation; victims of abuse, or neglect, or disabled young children.

The Children in Need 2016 appeal will air on BBC One on November 18.

Same old BBC 'gang' crying to get the money in the name of children, Virtually NO money gets to its intended cause, sadly ALL charities are cons and need to be scrapped.

Look how many children?s are dying in Middle East, they boomed them and ask for charities money, I won't give money to anyone any longer. Think of all the money raised by this deplorable load of celebrities every year. Where does it ALL money go?

I certainly never hear of any major projects funded by it. Kids still sadly live in poverty.
Take Africa - how many ?billionsssss have been raised over the decades?
And what has changed???????????????
NOTHING AT ALL. Save your money because it certainly does not help those you think it will.
Didn't Jimmy Savile get a cut out of that 'Children in Need' money?

Terry wogan got paid ?9k for an evening, avoid ALL charities

know of a building ?210,000 charity paid for it outright

Did hear TW.. trousered his fee.. Some stars work for nothing on children in need. What is required is a published list of all presenters, what is paid and to whom and who works for free.

They promise our money will improve the lives of disabled children in Russia...ffs our donation not used in UK disabled children...

That's because there is, a false, expectation that our own government and it's services will help people in the UK. The only people this government is going to help are those with money already. If you have no money why would they care since you quite obviously wouldn't vote for them at an election. Better o concentrate their efforts on those with money who will vote for them.
