BBC Children in Need - Season 40 / Year 2019

Ten well-known actors come together to record an album for Children in Need. Cameras follow Helena Bonham Carter, Jim Broadbent, Olivia Colman, Shaun Dooley, Luke Evans, Suranne Jones , Adrian Lester, Himesh Patel, David Tennant and Jodie Whittaker over 12 weeks in the summer of 2019 as they rehearse songs for their album, Got It Covered. Each actor must choose a song that has special meaning for them and must make their cover version their own. The participants also visit some charity projects that Children in Need supports in order to help raise funds and awareness.

The annual night of fundraising for Children in Need projects across the UK is back and bigger than ever, with the always brilliant hosts Tess Daly, Ade Adepitan, Graham Norton, Mel Giedroyc.

 The Dragons from Dragons' Den dine out at the I'll Get This restaurant in this special episode for Children In Need. However, rather than one of them paying the bill, they'll all be making donations to Children in Need, with the amounts increasing as the evening progresses.

Current Dragons Peter Jones, Tej Lalvani, Touker Suleyman and Sara Davies are joined by former Dragon Sarah Willingham.

The big night of fundraising continues with Rochelle and Marvin Humes, and brand new host comedian Tom Allen taking charge until 12.30am.

Mel Giedroyc presents the highlights of the annual night of fundraising and entertainment with big performances, comedy sketches, live studio surprises and inspiring stories.
