Robbie Williams has tried out a new look - as a little girl with pink ribbons - for a Little Britain for Comic Relief sketch. Robbie said: "It's hard to say no when asked to take part in a Little Britain sketch for Comic Relief," said the chart star. "But I have to admit that dressing up as a small American child in a pretty dress made it all the more appealing." Robbie plays Candy Marie-Candy, a friend of Ellie Grace (Matt Lucas) who is on a sleepover. While mom (David Walliams) is cooking breakfast they begin to play a game of "I love you more..." - with some interesting results.

The sketches will be shown on BBC One on Friday from 7pm.
