The Brits among us will know what I'm talking about...and the non-Brits (everyone else) will have not the damndest idea wtf I'm on about.

Comic Relief, it is an annual thing that I think is only British...such as Children In Need...

On the day, the whole nation does something for charity...usually with red noses (hence the name "Red Nose Day")...in the evening, and through the night 'till the early hours of the morning, comic relief takes over the television. Every program shown on BBC1 (maybe on other channels they have Comic Relief things...I don't know) is a program that ties in with Comic Relief. British celebrities join in and do the weirdest things...all for charity.

Here's the official CR/RND site, if anyone wants to look at it...http://www.bbc.co.uk/rednoseday/

The main point about this thread, is mostly to find out if anything like this happens in America...or in the countires that other members come from...I'm curious...
