The annual Comic Relief fundraiser is to return to television screens on Friday and will feature appearances from Daniel Craig, Catherine Tate and Olivia Colman.
Friday’s show is being hosted by television presenters Davina McCall and Paddy McGuinness, comedian Sir Lenny Henry and singer Alesha Dixon.
During the programme, Tate’s foul-mouthed Nan character will meet James Bond, played by Craig, during a new sketch for the programme.
The name's Tate. Catherine Tate.
As James Bond, Daniel Craig has faced the world's worst villains. But will he survive meeting the nation's favourite foul-mouthed Nan?
