Hollyoaks Cast Sing For England
Cast members from Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks are to release a
charity single in support of England at the 2010 World Cup.
The soap's celebrity football team, whose members include veteran cast
member Nick Pickard, aka Tony Hutchinson, will release Sing For England on
May 23 with all profits being donated to the Alder Hey Children's Hospital
in Liverpool.
Nick said: "All the lads in the team are passionate about football and we
love playing regularly to raise money for charity, so it only seems natural
to show our support for the England football team in South Africa by
releasing Sing For England."
Alder Hey treats over 200,000 children and young people each year and the
Hollyoaks celebrity football has already raised £50,000 for the hospital by
taking part in charity matches.

Bafta - Human
Error
Bafta said today "human error" was responsible for a mistake
that saw "a number" of eligible shows left off a list circulated to members
voting for its 2010 TV awards.
It said it had acted to inform the 7 per cent of members who had already
voted of the omissions and would give them a chance to submit their vote
again.
The Independent reported Alan Carr's Chatty Man and Chris Moyles' Quiz Night
were among the missing shows.
A Bafta spokesperson would not confirm which programmes were affected.
The first round of online voting, which decides the nominations for this
year's awards, opened on Tuesday. Bafta said in a statement: "The lists were
immediately investigated, a human error discovered and amendments made
online that afternoon.
"Bafta is satisfied that the entries originally omitted have been presented
fairly to every voter in this first round."
The Bafta Television Awards will be held at the London
Palladium on June 6.
