For one day only, San Francisco transformed into Gotham City, especially for Miles Scott (Batkid), a five year old leukemia sufferer, and the city's residents were all in on the secret (courtesy of Make-A-Wish Foundation).
The day began with an ABC news report calling for Batkid's help and his day progressed with saving a damsel-in-distress and apprehending the Riddler. To reward him for all of his help, Batkid was rewarded with the key to the city.
This is an absolutely wonderful story, and something that I'm sure was brilliant fun to be part of. Bravo San Francisco.
Very Important Pudsey
The second charity-meets-entertainment story of the week revolves around our favourite charity mascot, Pudsey (bear not dog).
Stars from stage, screen and music came together to design a very unique range of Pudsey's to raise money for this year's Children in Need. Those participating included Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Terry Wogan, Dame Helen Mirren and Joanna Lumley's (see below).
And now something bizarre...
A sequel to It's a Wonderful Life is in the works. Yup.
It's a Wonderful Life: The Rest of the Story (hmm...) will follow Bailey's unpleasant grandson, with angel Zuzu showing him how much better the world would have been without him.
I don't even know what to say.
