Huge thanks to @Twitch, @Nick_Haywood for kind prizes from @Razer, everybody who stayed up and watched the stream, donated, got the word out, and most importantly, THANK YOU, WORKERS AND VOLUNTEERS OF THE @NHSuk and @MindCharity FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO 14/almost

This was a 48 hour comedy marathon to show how hard NHS workers work. 48 hours of show, with 10 minute breaks most hours, is nothing compared to 36 hours on-call + 12 hour shifts in a dangerous time without the equipment or support you need.

Here& #39;s me 10 seconds before start

During

And right after. What you can& #39;t see is I couldn& #39;t walk properly, my stomach muscles were agony, my left shoulder was strained, arms shaking + body run down. Just from standing up + talking shit in a house IMAGINE HAVING TO TRY TO SAVE PEOPLE& #39;S LIVES FOR HOURS IN A PUBLIC HOSPITAL

Thank you everybody. People are good. x Support the NHS, and support Mind, we already know we need the first more than ever, and mental health support is so valuable.

Goodnight. x
