Shame, but the right decision 

It's a bit of a shame. I know someone at Comic Relief, and so I got to see this show being recorded - it was very funny. It's just a shame that it's had to be pulled off the air.

I guess it's the right decision, but I wonder if they could have pointed out before the program that it was recorded in advance (end of last year) - although that would render the "if you raise half a million in half an hour there will be a special reward" that Jack Dee promoted at the start of the show a bit pointless.

Perhaps it will be shown at some point, or available on the BBCs website. Because it was very funny, and a great lineup - Jack Dee, Frank Skinner, Andrew Marr, Lauren Laverne, Dara O'Brien, Alan Carr (as well as Ms Goody, who was also amusing during the show).
