Pudsey helped BBC Radio Oxford's Adam Ball and former Dr Who actor Sophie Aldred to escape from the Daleks.
From putting out fires to filling up buckets, the hard working White Watch team from Oxford Fire and Rescue's Rewley Road Fire Station raised about £1,000.

Pudsey and his band of loyal volunteers have been working hard to raise money for BBC Children in Need.

People across Hampshire, Dorset, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and the Isle of Wight have been selling sweets and shaking buckets for a good cause.

Events included Dalek escapes, tea and coffee mornings and mock driving tests.

Some of the fundraisers even turned a little yellow and spotty while they did their bit to ensure every child has the chance to thrive and be the best they can be.
