Who Really Cares About Red Nose Day?


Recommended Posts

Tim: Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against this sort of thing. It's a good cause, but I just don't want to have to join in with someone else's idea of wackiness, okay? It's the wackiness I can't stand. It's like, you see someone outside Asda collecting for cancer research because they've been personally affected by it, or whatever, I dunno, an old bloke selling poppies, there's a dignity about that. A real quiet dignity.

 

Tim, The Office, series 2, episode 5, BBC2, 2002.

 

I can't stand the wackiness either, it's so forced.

Ricky Gervais's Room 101 talks about this.

 

 

He's right of course. I can't stand it either. The sentiment is ok but I always feel a lot of the people who get involved, both fund raisers and celebrities, do so to make them look like decent caring people, yeah right...course you are...
