Sir Lenny Henry gets more than a doctor in the following Red Nose Day 2023 Doctor Who sketch. In fact, he gets David Tennant's Fourteenth.

Comic Relief announces total of more than £19m at show's halfway ... (Evening Standard)

The show has seen comedy sketches, musical performances and a special message from the Prince of Wales so far.

“You know the roller skating montage and the Spinning Around video? What really kept us going was the donations.” Singer Fleur East also appeared in the sketch in which Norton described her as a “runner-up” following her appearance in X Factor and other reality shows, and saw her humorously storm off stage. The sketch also saw TV chef Gordon Ramsay play the recorder and comedian David Walliams dressed in a leather ensemble singing Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor hitting his own “golden buzzer” referencing Britain’s Got Talent. It’s been an epic effort. “He is in the thick of another project, but before he regenerated, he did make a little film for us and you’ll see that later on.”
