Chris Evans kicked off his four-day Children in Need extravaganza with a live Breakfast broadcast from his home.

Last November, seven generous souls (and their co-drivers) donated nearly 脗拢250,000 to the charity, in exchange for the ride of their lives in seven magnificent Ferraris. The intrepid travellers set off in convoy from chez Evans and will drive around some of the most picturesque country lanes in Berkshire, Hampshire and Dorset before winding up at a luxury hotel in the New Forest.
