Comic Relief short

A two-minute introduction to the first ever Comic Relief event saw Paul Eddington, in character as Prime Minister Hacker, address the nation on the subject of charitable giving and its preferential nature to government handouts to charity. It was the only video insert in the show, which was performed at London's Shaftesbury Theatre on 4-6 April 1986. An edited highlights programme, including Hacker's address, was broadcast by the BBC on 25 April.
