Cheryl Cole - in stunning captain's cap - rubs shoulders with Robbie Williams and comic actor James Corden at a Children In Need concert.

Earlier the X Factor judge surprised the audience by singing Snow Patrol's Set The Fire To The Third Bar with the band themselves.

Other stars at the Royal Albert Hall extravaganza - which raised £500,000 - included Paul McCartney, Lily Allen, Dizzee Rascal, Leona Lewis, Mika and Muse.

Fans can see the concert, which includes Robbie's reunion with Take That, at 8pm tonight on BBC1.
