Dermot O’Leary, Clara Amfo and Claudia Winkleman to present NHS event

Dermot O’Leary, Clara Amfo, and Claudia Winkleman are to present the BBC’s coverage of ‘One World: At Home Together’.
The charity event – which is being held in the US – will be shown on BBC One on Saturday (18.04.20), and it will see the presenters follow the courageous efforts of healthcare workers around the world in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
A host of award-winning artists will come together for exclusive performances – put together in collaboration with Lady Gaga, Citizen Global and the World Health Organisation – and there will be surprises for frontline staff, who will also be interviewed.
The presenting trio are "thrilled" to support the special event as a "fitting tribute" to the nurses and doctors risking their lives fighting COVID-19.
Claudia said: "What a privilege to be joining Clara and Dermot to present such a powerful and uplifting programme in these challenging times.
"I can’t wait to be a part of this unique dedication to those on the front line of the global fight against COVID-19."
Dermot added: "I’m thrilled to be hosting BBC One’s coverage of ‘One World: Together At Home’.
"Clara, Claudia and I will bring UK viewers even more unique performances from the likes of Ellie Goulding, George the Poet, Jess Glynne, The Kingdom Choir, Little Mix, Michael Bublé, Rag’n’Bone Man, Skip Marley and Tom Jones to name a few.
"It will be a fitting tribute to those who are giving and sacrificing so much for our society."
The event will feature more than 70 performances by some of the world’s most notable entertainers, including Alicia Keys, Amy Poehler, Awkwafina, Camila Cabello, Céline Dion, Ellen DeGeneres, Jennifer Lopez, LL Cool J, Lupita Nyong’o, Matthew McConaughey, Oprah Winfrey, Pharrell Williams, Sam Smith, Shawn Mendes, Taylor Swift, Usher, Victoria Beckham, and more.
