🎧 #Bananarama covered "Help!" with #FrenchAndSaunders and #KathyBurke for #ComicRelief in 1989.

The song went #1.

Watching the #MrsDoubtfire musical number ‘Make me a Women’ with your kids is thankfully not a revolutionary act in the UK...let’s hope we never adopt the prejudices of the US.

Picture: clip from #BBC #ComicRelief of musical cast singing ‘Make me a Women’. Men in drag as famous women led by Oscar Wilde.

Spotted Dick and Dom wearing ‘Tofu eater’
T-shirts and the kids lapped up the Mrs Doubtfire number. The fight back for the heart and soul of the #BBC is on.

Now wiping tears from eyes hearing Mo Farrah’s story about being trafficked into modern slavery. It makes my blood boil that the #Tories no longer want to protect kids like the 9 year old he was when he came to the the UK. Keep up the pressure #BBC, don’t cave to the Number 10 spin doctors.

It was wonderful to introduce my kids to Blackadder and Baldrick via #ComicRelief and CBeebies Bedtime Stories - they loved it! And I loved the fact the writers and illustrator (Chris #Riddell) had incorporated Therese #Coffey ‘s recent comments to the effect of ‘Let them eat turnips’.

Great to see the BBC pushing back against #Tory diktat and encouraging younger generation to be kinder than those that govern us.
