Comic Relief: Tonight

It's all for a good cause - four or five hours of funny telly, live blogging and cash for comments for charity. Join Anna Pickard and Janine Gibson here for the final of celebrity Fame Academy, the Apprentice, Sugababes v Girls Aloud and all the rest from 7pm tonight. And we will donate 20p per comment to Comic Relief.

It's all on live NOW here and here.

Fame Academy

Tara P-T won the viewers vote and then Tricia and Barry from EastEnders went into the celeb vote-off.

Sadly, the bizarre 6-5 (all the lasses v all the blokes) vote denied us the dream final. Barry from EastEnders fell at the final hurdle despite a fabulous performance of Walking in Memphis. I so wanted him to do Mustang Sally in the final.

So, its Tara P-T v Tricia.

The Apprentice

Those highlights in full in case you missed it: Rupert Everett walking out because he couldn't handle the cameras and has nothing to say without a script in front of him; Cheryl Tweedy, sorry, Cole, taking the piss out of Trinny Woodall's detox trips and OCD; Maureen Lipman's four-letter outburst; the look on "boys" team leader Alastair Campbell's face when he realised the "girls" had humiliated them in the Comic Relief money raising challenge.

Who got fired? You will have to wait until tonight. Danny Baker looks pretty safe, Ross Kemp barely featured, and it surely won't be previous Apprentice winner Tim Campbell. So that leaves Campbell and Piers Morgan... don't expect them to go quietly.
