BRITAIN'S comedy stars have teamed up to raise money for the
Asian tsunami disaster appeal and will, no doubt, be pulling out
all the stops when they take to the stage at 8pm on Tuesday, February
22, 2005, at London's Carling Apollo in Hammersmith.
Hosted by Jack Dee, Jonathan Ross, Graham Norton and Lily Savage,
the show is expected to accomodate each participating comic in
a five-minute slot.
