Rupert Grint, Ronald Weasley from the Harry Potter movies, participated in pre-Red Nose Day celebrations in the UK by appearing on the Dick 'n Dom Comic Relief in da Bungalow show on BBC Two.
The sketch involved Rupert running around the National Portrait Gallery
in London with one of the hosts of the show and yelling 'boogies' to the dismay of the public. The winners of the show will participate in a special competition on Friday, Red Nose night.
Thanks to Rupertonline.net you can watch the video as well as view some screen shots of Rupert's appearance.
UPDATE: RGMS has put up a better quality video of the show.
CBBC Newsround has additional information on the show here and some pictures.

It look like Rupert had a great time, doing the skit, I hope they raised alot of money for different charities. I'm glad he had a good time.

I'm American, and that sounds...well...interesting.
I'm not sure it is hilarious, but it sounds somewhat amusing.
Oh well.
I guess I just don't have a British sense of humor.
I'll get over it.

I wish there was a similar event in the U.S. like Red Nose Day. It looks like everyone has a great time and you're donating money to charities and making people aware of where their money is going and the need for the donations.

That is too funny! Can you imagine seeing that in person and thinking, "hey, is that the guy who plays Ron? And why is he shouting boogies???" Rupert seems like he's a good sport!

That sounds like a fun thing to do, maybe I should do that....ok, maybe not.
Great to see him taking part and raising money.

I can't really imagine Rupert doing slapstick type things and I can't stand the programme, but it's all for a good cause and in the spirit of Comic Relief! Hehehe.

That's very good of Rupert to help a charity like that. Seems like celebrities don't do enough of that most of the time.

I suppose if you have to have a secondary talent, being able to scream Bogies louder than anybody else is as good as any. This is a very quirky news story and I love it. Hahaha. Maybe Bogies will play an important role in the next book.... It could be a clue...

Interesting...it's good to see Rupert doing some other stuff even if it does entail running around like a crazy person. I bet he had some fun doing that!

"How come we never See Dan up here anymore? "
Coz he is studying for his GC.. something, sorry I am not from UK, but I know they are very important tests.
I am glad that Dan didn't do this comedy thing, there was a rumor that he was going to do something for this red nose thing, becoz they were showing footage of Dan when he did it in 2002.
But like I said before thank god he didn't do it, it was BORING nothing funny about really!, I tho since it was Rupert and you know he is famous, they were going to so something really funny, sorry but it was lame and not funny at all, whoever wrote that idea, it was bad!
