In an exclusive sketch for Comic Relief: Funny for Money, raising money for a good cause has never been so 'creative' as Idris Elba, star of award-winning crime thriller series Luther, gets in on the action alongside some other famous faces in the comically thrilling sketch The Bank Job.
Celebrities have gone to the extremes over the years in the name of charity, now Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary are joined by a gang of celebrities as they go the extra mile in an attempt to raise money for Comic Relief.
Chris McCausland, Stephen Mulhern, Shona McGarty, Niko Omilana, Gladiator’s Sabre, and Natalie Cassidy are joining the heist to end all heists. Who will stay on the right side of the law? Who will put their (questionable!) intelligence, strategic prowess and artful deftness to the test in a bid to become 2026’s most-wanted bank robber? And how will they fare now that DCI John Luther is on the case?
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.
