In an exclusive sketch for Comic Relief: Funny for Money, the BBC’s number one comedy of 2025 Amandaland gets the Red Nose Day treatment in a sketch that promises big names and big laughs.

Comical chaos is set to ensue in ‘Amandas-land’ when Amanda (Lucy Punch), joined by Anne (Philippa Dunne), are invited to BBC Broadcasting House for a special live radio interview with Sara Cox – and the pair unexpectedly encounter some of TV’s most legendary Amandas.

Caught up in the comedy of errors are Amanda Holden, Amanda Lamb, Amanda Barrie, Amanda Byram and Amanda Collier. Sara Cox’s overwhelmed radio producer is played by Lydia West, and the production runner is played by Lucia Keskin.

Expect mix-ups, misunderstandings, and classic slapstick humour in this unmissable Comic Relief Amandaland special.

You can also get a behind the scenes look at the filming of the sketch on The One Show on Thursday 19 March, from 7pm on BBC iPlayer and BBC One.

Comic Relief: Funny for Money is live from MediaCityUK in Salford on BBC iPlayer and BBC One on Friday 20 March from 7pm, and for the very first time, live streamed simultaneously on the official BBC YouTube channel.

The money raised this Red Nose Day could help people access food, shelter and safety – the vital essentials everyone needs to survive.
