Red
Nose Day is here! And the fundraising fun has begun in Gloucestershire.
Watch the videos of "Our Comic County" held at The Guildhall
in Gloucester.
(March 2005)
As
part of this year's Comic Relief fundraising spectacular BBC Gloucestershire
hosted a special 'Our Comic County' event at the Guildhall in Gloucester.
We'd
been talent spotting right across the county in recent weeks, looking
for undiscovered comedic talent to perform alongside professional
stand-ups and musicians.
On
stage
Among
those who appeared on stage were local comedians Nic Hill, Nick
Page, and Keith Morgan.
There
was music from BBC Radio Gloucestershire's very own Johnny Coppin,
local band Earnest Cox, and even His Royal Highness Prince Charles'
Royal Harpist - Jemima Phillips.
The
event was hosted by BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Faye Hatcher and
Simon Cartwright.
Rib-tickling
Here's
your chance to have a right rib-tickling chuckle by watching video
highlights of 'Our Comic County', and by listening to a special
report on the evening.
Also
featured are videos of music performances by Johnny Coppin and Jemima
Phillips.
