Some of Britain’s most famous faces united to entertain the nation as part of BBC One’s Big Night In , which raised more than £27 million to help support vulnerable people during the coronavirus pandemic.
The programme featured a new Little Britain sketch for the first time in more than 10 years , a lockdown version of The Trip by Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon, and even a surprise performance from the Duke of Cambridge.
Prince William appeared in a Blackadder sketch alongside Stephen Fry just before the Clap for Carers took place at 8pm.
He told the actor and comedian: “On my way, let me just see if I can find my socks, and my shoes, and my trousers.”

Alongside a host of performances and celebrity appearances, Chancellor Rishi Sunak also appeared on the programme, saying that the Government would match all donations.
Mr Sunak said: “We are all worried, worried about our health, our friends, our family, but I also know when we look back and remember that in this time of crisis that we came together as a country.
“We were there for each other and that is what the Big Night In is all about.
