For some the first time he said he visited Africa – to go to a Spice Girls concert in Johannesburg with his father Prince Charles – was the big talking point.

Prince Harry was joined on the show by big name supporters of the charity. Including music stars Elton John, Joss Stone and Coldplay’s Chris Martin – who performed to raise money for the charity.
