Peter Kay on song for BBC Children in Need

Peter Kay

BBC Children in Need and comedian and singing sensation Peter Kay have joined forces to raise much needed funds for this year's 30th Appeal on 20 November 2009.

Viewers will be treated to a world exclusive during BBC Children in Need when Kay reveals his new single packed with almost 100 famous faces both from the UK and America – an historic feat that has never been attempted before. Can he do it? Yes, he can!

Peter Kay comments, "It's taken two years of planning to create the video and I just know people are going to be both astonished and delighted. It's been a real labour of love but the result is joyous, potentially another Amarillo!"

With the help of Peter Kay’s new charity single, this year's BBC Children in Need Appeal hopes to beat last year’s total of £38 million through donations, which then went to organisations working with disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.

David Ramsden, CEO of BBC Children in Need comments, "We are really excited about this year’s single. We’re sure Peter Kay’s midas touch will help to create an iconic charity single that will raise much needed funds for disadvantaged children here in the UK."
