Gary Lineker Cut from BBC Charity Show
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Gary Lineker, former football star and BBC pundit, was set to appear in Lord Alan Sugars Children in Need charity specials but was cut from the final broadcast due to time limitations. Linekers segment was filmed in March, alongside celebrities like Olivia Colman, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Robbie Williams. This isnt the first high-profile exit for Lineker, who previously left Match of the Day after a social media controversy. Despite his absence, the charity event featuring a star-studded cast will still air on December twenty-ninth to raise funds for Children in Need.
