Children in Need Auctions

BBC Radio 2 - The Chris Evans Breakfast Show, Children in Need Auctions

Chris auctions off an Ultimate Christmas Office Lunch and Party for BBC Children In Need.

On the first day of Chris's BBC Children In Need auctions he takes bids for the Ultimate Christmas Party with Rick Astley and the Ultimate Office Christmas Lunch with Rick Stein.

It's the first day of Chris' auctions for BBC Children In Need! 

We take bids to celebrate Christmas with Chris and the team at a party like no other. With 500 pairs of tickets to the Ultimate Christmas Party to auction off, Rick Astley stops by the studio to share the secrets to his sensational set list. Our lucky winners and a guest get an invite to the best Xmas Party in town on Monday 18th December 2017 - to see Rick Astley live at a special gig all in aid of BBC Children in Need at Camden's iconic venue - Koko. Also on the bill will be the best tribute band around The Lionels, and our very own Chris & Jumpin' Jimmy Flash on the decks of steel.  

And we auction off the ten tables for six at Rick Stein's newest restaurant in Barnes for The Ultimate Office Christmas Lunch. Hosting the Lunch along with Chris and the Breakfast Show Team will be the Queen of Baking Mary Berry, the Absolutely Fabulous Joanna Lumley and the ace Judy Murray. 

Lines are now closed. 

Dave Tomlinson provides the Daily Pause For Thought, Kids For A Fanfare Mia reads us her moving Remembrance Day poem and we hear from Max, Kion and Rachel who benefit from Children in Need funding.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
