Amanda and Jason took to our screens to present The Great Comic Relief Prizeathon show which aired after the main show at 10.30pm.

Jason looked very smart in a black suit and matching waistcoat and white shirt.

While Amanda's presenting received mixed reviews, some fans did take to Twitter to praise her efforts.

User @RealSlimShobi said: "Awesome show Jason + the amazing AmandaHolden! Really professional presenters, kept the audience thoroughly entertained!

"Despite national + global challenges, amazing we still manage to raise millions for well-deserved projects + communities! Congrats to all! @comicrelief"

During the main programme Davina McCall and Alesha Dixon looked sensational as they took to the stage alongside Paddy McGuinness, David Tennant and Lenny Henry to present the fundraising event - with the total standing at £74,000,000 by the end.

The evening was opened with a hilarious sketch by Dawn French's Vicar of Dibley doing her best Lizzo impression, larking around on a video call to hit tune Juice.

Paddy McGuinness, Davina, Alesha, David Tennant and Lenny Henry all presented the comic charity event, however it was Lenny who caught the attention of many on Twitter.

Dozens of viewers commented on how 'good he looked' with others adding that he was looking rather thin. Writing on social media, one fan wrote: 'How does Lenny Henry look younger everytime I see him!? #ComicRelief'
