Comic Relief stars are sharing their favourite jokes through Alexa ahead of Red Nose Day. To get in the Red Nose Day spirit, users of the Amazon device can now say “Alexa, tell me a Comic Relief joke” to hear a gag read by one of this year’s Comic Relief celebrity supporters.
They include Adam Thomas, Seann Walsh, Sindhu Vee, Greg James, Jay Blades and Vicky Pattison as well as the charity’s co-founder, Sir Lenny Henry. To buy this year's Red Nose, designed by Sir Jony Ive, say “Alexa, add a Comic Relief Red Nose to my basket”.
Users can then follow the audible or on-screen instructions to check out. The experience is available on Alexa enabled devices including Echo, Fire TV and the Alexa mobile app in the UK.
