Go behind the scenes of Poldark and meet the meerkats from your sofa! 

Last year, Children in Need, the BBC's UK charity, raised its highest total ever - a record breaking £55million&nbsp;&nbsp;- to help change the lives of disadvantaged children and young people throughout the UK.&nbsp;
The 2016 fundraising campaign promises to be even bigger and better.
Once again, Asda staff and customers will be doing everything they can to support the charity.&nbsp;Asda has been a proud partner of BBC Children in Need for over a decade, helping to raise over £10 million in that time.&nbsp;
And this year&nbsp;people will be able to discover a whole new world of experiences thanks to <a target='_blank'target='_blank'target='_blank'target="_blank" href="https://www.bbcchildreninneed.co.uk/fundraisinghub/ideas/pudseyvr">Pudsey Virtual Reality</a>.&nbsp;
<h2>Pudsey Virtual Reality</h2>
PudseyVR lets you go behind the scenes of your favourite BBC shows like Poldark, fly a plane, ride a rollercoaster, or meet the meerkats, all from the comfort of your sofa!&nbsp;
To experience Children in Need in a totally new way, all you need to do is pick up your PudseyVR box (below) for just&nbsp;£4. You can purchase one of the special PudseyVR headsets from&nbsp;256 Asda supercentres nationwide (subject to availability).

Meanwhile, this year's appeal show will take place on Friday 18 November with joint presenters Graham Norton, Tess Daly, Greg James, Ade Adepitan, Rochelle Humes and Marvin Humes and a whole host of surprises&nbsp;including an exclusive preview of the Doctor Who Christmas special episode.
The theme for Asda on the night will be Pudsey's Big Night In. In other words, grab your Pudsey onesies, T-shirts (see below), socks, pyjamas and headbands (or all of the above?) and get ready to cosy up on the sofa for a night of laughter, entertainment and fundraising.&nbsp;
