Watch your telly tonight at 7.58 pm

The Make Poverty History 'Click' ad is going to be shown on telly for the first time tonight, on all commercial channels. The ad uses celebs like Kylie, Bob Geldof and Kate Moss (pictured), and Brad Pitt (not pictured - sorry girls), who click their fingers every 3 seconds. Each click symbolises the death of a child. Across the developing world, one child dies every three seconds from extreme poverty.

If you can't get to your telly, go to the Make Poverty History website from 8.00 pm to watch the clip.

I think that the advert is really cool. It really hits home the the extent of the situation and I hopt that it makes people think, but not just think, take action too.
