BBC News wrote on Sunday that Walliams finished the ‘tough’ challenge after being joined by guests such as Stephen Fry, David Tennant and Barbra Windsor for 24 Hour Panel People which blended beloved TV panel shows like Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Have I Got News For You and Would I Lie To You?
After the event Wallaims said: ‘It does take its toll on you physically with things like your eyes not being able to focus so well anymore on the autocue.
‘It was tough, yes, but it was the right side of tough. I mean if I was slumped on the desk not saying anything I think it really wouldn’t have been very entertaining but you could see I was a little bit delirious towards the end.’
Comparing his latest efforts to his 2006 swim across the English Channel for Sport Relief he said: ‘I trained for a long time to swim the Channel so I was kind of ready to do that.
‘With this I had a lot less sense of how it was going to work out because I really didn’t know how I would be after staying awake for so long and also being on TV and trying to be entertaining - it is so different.’
Highlights of the show will be broadcast during Comic Relief on March 18th.
