The One Show has been pulled from screens in a major BBC schedule shake-up this week as it is set to air a huge special in November.

On Friday the show will be missing from BBC One as it broadcasts its special Children In Need fundraiser programme instead.

The bi-annual show will return on November 15, and will include an array of celebrity appearances.

Ade Adepitan MBE, Mel Giedroyc, Rochelle Humes, Vernon Kay, Chris Ramsey and Lenny Rush will present the jampacked evening of sketches and performances.

The stars will be taking turns as they co-host the live evening to help raise money for charities across the country.

Many of the episodes in the upcoming weeks will be missing from the BBC One set as it will broadcast its special Children In Need fundraising programme instead

Usually, The One Show starts at 7pm Monday to Friday every week, but  on Friday, the show will be pulled to make way for BBC Children In Need.

The fundraising show will start at 7pm and finish at 11pm, which means two other regular shows alongside The One Show will also be pulled.

The other two shows include MasterChef: The Professionals, hosted by Gregg Wallace, Marcus Wareing and Monica Galetti.

The channel’s legendary Have I Got News For You will also be removed from its usual 9pm slot.

The fundraising show will celebrate people from across the nation who have taken part in special events to help raise money for charity.

One includes sharing the results of the Ultra-Endurance Challenge taken on by Radio 2 host Paddy McGuinness.

He is currently cycling through three nations and eights countries in a bid to raise money.

During the three-hour charity extravaganza, several celebrities will also visit the MediaCity UK studio in Salford, where the live broadcast will take place.

He said: ‘BBC Children in Need has always been a big deal in our house, as you’ll know Tess presented for years alongside Sir Terry, so it’s a really big deal for me to be a part of it. 

‘There’s the emotional element of being part of something that’s doing so much good, but also the practical (terrifying!) element that it’s a mᴀssive production and millions of people 6 will be tuning in.

‘I’m going to be wearing my lucky underpants on the night that’s for sure, and I’ll be tapping Tess up for some tips in these next few weeks’.

Money raised during the 2024 appeal will help BBC Children in Need to continue working in communities across the four nations, funding amazing people in family centres, community spaces, youth clubs and refuges; homeless shelters, hospices and helplines.

This year, BBC Children in Need is asking the public to make life lighter for children all across the UK.

Throughout the night, appeal films will feature some of the children and young people whose lives have been changed through the support of BBC Children in Need, and the project workers who work tirelessly to help them.

BBC Children in Need will air at 7pm on BBC One and iPlayer on Friday 15th November
