The first Night of Comic Relief happened on 5 February 1988. The eight hour telethon brought together everyone who was anyone –
from Jim Davidson to Harry Enfield - in the world of British comedy, with brand new sketches and classic clips.
The mix of laughter with hard hitting film inserts proved a potent combination and £15 million was raised for people in Africa and the UK.

Comic Relief was founded by Richard Curtis and Jane Tewson in 1985 -
building on the success of Band Aid and Live Aid - to raise money using comedy as the carrot.
The 1988 Night of Comic Relief was the culmination of years of work
and became a biennial fixture in the schedules, broadcast on Red Nose Day.
Lenny Henry and Griff Rhys Jones fronted the first night, with Jonathan Ross. It featured a new Blackadder episode 'The Cavalier Years' and a special edition of Spitting Image that united the rubber puppets with their human counterparts, plus a New Statesman special in which 'Alan B'Stard closes down the BBC'.
