Hi, Debbie... I asked a friend of mine who lives in the UK, and she said
it is part of Comic Relief. It was last week, and it happens every 2 years.
People do weird things to raise money for charities... things like men being
sponsored to have their legs waxed or sitting in a bathtub of cold baked
beans. They sell red plastic noses to wear, and lately they've had a theme,
such as spraying their hair red or wearing particular clothing. Kids
everywhere dyed their hair with red spray and did peculiar hairdos. Also,
someone releases a Comic Relief record to make money for the cause, and
people phone in to pledge money if the celebrities will do something odd.
