Alec gets as far as asking about the children before thinking better of asking their names. Their mother supplies "Son number one, and Son number two" instead, and Comic Relief's interviewer turns that into the Thing 1 and Thing 2 of the title.

"Meet the Parents of Thing 1 and Thing 2 #comicrelief #goodnews" is a small, cheerful introduction to Good News, the charity's street-interview series. Alec, normally its video editor, heads outside to collect everyday victories. Here, his interviewee is celebrating 20 years of marriage. Her husband prefers to stay off camera, so she carries the conversation herself.

The interview was the more watched of Comic Relief's two uploads this week, following a short announcement for the series. Both found modest audiences, with the interview reaching around 1,600 views. Its parting thought comes from the woman herself: "We need to focus on what we have, and not on what we don't have."

The channel's subscriber count was unchanged over the week, while daily viewing is running well below its usual level. Across the nearby sketch channels, Snuff Cup had a much busier week for views; Comic Relief gathered more weekly views than Relatable.

The celebrity archive supplies the channel's busiest individual uploads right now: Dawn French impersonating Claudia Winkleman in a Traitors parody, Kylie Minogue visiting Ghosts, and a MasterChef encounter between Winkleman and Miranda Hart. Good News offers something different alongside them: a passerby, a marriage anniversary and an interviewer learning when to stop asking.
