Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em revived for Sport Relief

Some Mothers 1

Michael Crawford and Michele Dotrice are returning as Frank Spencer and his wife Betty for a Sport Relief sketch alongside cyclist Sir Bradley Wiggins.

The sketch will see the walking human disaster area getting involved in his normal, accidental chaos, before arriving at the Lee Valley VeloPark where he has a chance meeting with the gold medal winning cyclist. It has also been said that other famous faces from sport and entertainment will appear in the sketch, but these names have yet to be announced.

In a BBC press release Crawford said: “I am thrilled and delighted to have been asked to bring Frank back for Sport Relief.”

Meanwhile Dotrice said: “It will be an absolute joy to be reunited again with Frank and fitting, for it is such a wonderful cause.”

Sir Bradley meanwhile has said: “I am a huge fan of Michael so it’s an absolute honour to be asked to be involved alongside such an icon of British television… and all for a great cause!”

Some Mothers Do ‘Ave ‘Em was one of the most popular sitcoms of the 1970s, running for 22 episodes, and most famous for its comic stunts which Crawford performed himself.

Sport Relief night starts at 19.00 on BBC One on Friday 18th March.
