A personal dream come true for me, the wonderful comedian Noel Fielding (The Mighty Boosh) has danced to Wuthering Heights in the BBC charity programme “Let’s Dance for Comic Relief.” The studio panel has rightly voted Noel’s performance as Kate through to the final on March 12th! We will be providing voting links for the final when they happen. There’s not much more to say except: enjoy the clip and please consider donating to Comic Relief, one of Kate’s favourite charities, here.
And here is Kate’s message to Noel:
“Hi Noel, it’s Kate here. I really love your work and I just want to wish you luck for tonight. Break a leg. Well, actually no, no… don’t break a leg. Just win baby, WIN!”
Sadly the Youtube clip of Kate’s message seems to have disappeared: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UZ49nvm364
Press already: Metro, UnrealityTV, Chortle.
As an apparent consequence of this, Wuthering Heights is now at no.2 in the iTunes Rock Songs Chart for 28th February 2011.
Here’s a longer clip with intro and judges comments:

you said: “There’s not much more to say except: enjoy the clip”.
Well, there is actually:
Kate recorded a personal MESSAGE to Noel.
Kate message: “Hi Noel, it’s Kate here. I really love your work and I just want to wish you luck for tonight. Break a leg. Well, actually no, no… don’t break a leg. Just win baby, WIN!”
This made my day and my night too. 🙂

I couldn’t sleep until I watched it ALL 🙂
Wow, Kate’s alive! And maybe something’s going on!
Collin
Hilarious and spot on. Great that Kate recorded a little message for him.
Lisa
:oD
There’s just something so *right* about Noel ‘doing’ Kate !
Barbara
Well done Noel – and how jammy is he having a message from Kate?
John
Was that really Kate? Doesn’t she sound so husky and deep?
Isabelle
With THAT kind of sense of humour it couldn’t be anybody else!
Maybe she smokes again, maybe not. People change.
Her voice sounds very mature and deep. Mrrrr.
Lisa
Love Noel & love Kate, a match made in heaven. After the message do you think he’ll get to guest on her new L.P?
