Schedule
The telethon has traditionally taken the format of one broadcast with various presenting teams hosting typically for an hour at a time introducing a variety of sketches and appeal films. Since 2017, the broadcast has been split into different sections, with separate hosts, focusing on a specific theme or skit rather than featuring numerous sketches, appeal films and performances.| Time | Show | Description |
