No doubt it'll be sketches involving Doctor Who, Strictly etc and people are expected to like them because they are popular shows instead of them actually being funny. I suppose with Lenny announcing that it's his last show that will give the BBC an excuse to build the programme around best bits involving him but after this year then what? I can see in future there being no main show and it is short sketches and appeal videos being slotted between shows in a standard Friday night schedule.

Maybe that’s the future - glorified in-vision continuity between regular programming… Part of me actually wonders if that might actually be better than the current offering. It hasn’t felt like Comic Relief in a long time. The fact they had Alesha Dixon hosting for years proved to me that those producing the show had completely missed the point of the evening, and although they’ve thankfully moved on from that misstep I just can’t see it going in the right direction if Lenny Henry is now leaving.
