COMEDIAN Joe Wilkinson pounded the streets of Brighton on Sunday in aid of children’s charity Amaze for the city’s 25th Vitality Brighton Half Marathon.
He is best known for his role as Dan in BBC3 comedy ‘Him and Her’ and his appearances on programmes such as Have I Got News For You and Eight Out of 10 Cats.
He said: “I’m supporting children’s charity Amaze. They offer support to parents who have children with special needs.
"Nicky at Amaze made me do this. She said that she knew where I lived and left a note on my car. I thought I had a stalker.
"But there were a lot of amazing people around the course who were keeping me going, bless them .
“They were great.”
At the finish line he added: “I’m having a good lie down, “I’m going to go to the pub I think. I’m going to drink until I can’t feel my legs again.”
