Children In
Need Tops £20m
The BBC Children in Need appeal total has reached £20,309,747
at the end of the Friday night seven-hour TV show - just short of the amount
raised at the same stage last year.
Among the highlights of this year's show were the BBC newsreaders, who put
on a Beyonce-style dance routine.
Kate Silverton, Susanna Reid, Sophie Raworth and Fiona Bruce swapped
pinstriped suits for bling as they performed the American diva's hits Crazy
In Love and Single Ladies.
Silverton said later: "It was so out of our comfort zone, but it was worth
it."
Adrian Chiles joined fellow presenters from The One Show for a gaudy
rendition of Fame. Another unlikely sight was the Dragons' Den team donning
hard hats and overalls to help renovate a Children in Need community centre
in London.
The cast of Doctor Who, Strictly Come Dancing and EastEnders were also
involved.

Paul
O'Grady's Buster Is Dead
Buster, the dog belonging to TV host Paul O'Grady, is dead.
The pet, who was 14 years old, was a regular on O'Grady's Channel 4 show,
perching on the desk throughout the programme.
He had been ill with cancer and was put to sleep yesterday.
A spokeswoman said: "Paul is absolutely devastated. It all happened
suddenly. Buster had been suffering and in a lot of pain. Putting him down
was the kind thing to do."
Buster retired from the show last week. O'Grady will pay tribute to his pet
on Monday's programme.

I thought the Heading here was a little insensitive even
though it is true. Would it not have been more compassionate to have said
"Buster has died"?
