Children in Need has smashed fundraising goals once again, and it's all thanks to donations from generous folks like you!
Friday night's (November 16) appeal telethon came to an end after midnight with the incredible announcement from hosts Rob Beckett, Rochelle Humes and Marvin Humes that a staggering record total of £50,595,053 had been raised throughout the evening.
All of this money will go to good use to help fund a variety of charitable causes working tirelessly everyday throughout the country to make the lives of struggling families easier.

EastEnders sprinkled a little Disney magic on Albert Square for its traditional Children in Need musical number, all in honour of Mickey Mouse's 90th anniversary.
There was a wonderful Doctor Who mini-episode as the Doctor met two brave young fans, a preview of the Call the Midwife Christmas special and a celebrity edition of Junior Mastermind too.
In one of the night's most inspirational moments, viewers were treated to some incredibly moving musical performances from Little Mix, Sheridan Smith and Alfie Boe as they duetted with fans who've been supported by Children in Need.
