Mel and Sue are to compere the annual Children In Need comedy gig in London next month.

The duo cancelled their autumn tour last month after 33-year-old Mel Giedroyc became pregnant.

But they will be hosting the BBC London benefit at the Shepherds Bush Empire on November 13.

The star line-up also includes Jo Brand, Simon Day, Al Murray and this year's Perrier winner Garth Marenghi.

Ross Noble, Count Arthur Strong and Omid Djalili are also on the bill.

Tickets, priced £10, are available from the venue on 020 7 771 2000.
