As a part of the 2008 Sport Relief charity fundraiser (a spin-off of Comic Relief) the Royal Albert Hall hosted a tennis exhibition match. It was broadcast on March 14^th.

This men’s doubles match featured:

• Jimmy Carr / Pat Cash
• Jonathan Ross / Greg Rusedski

Getty Images have 48 great pictures here of both the match and Jonathan / Jimmy messing around at the promo photo shoot beforehand.

I found 4 videos that are all (mostly) different. Looks like they had great fun!!

This video has some footage of the match (and lots of messing around).

Part 1 has locker room chat, trash talking and a practice match with a little girl making up the 4 (when Jimmy turns up). A little girl that is better than at least 2 of them! And then Jimmy goes to Wimbledon to meet Cash.

Part 2 features John Lloyd saying Jimmy reminds him of Nadal…without the biceps. At 2 games each they have a sudden death tie break. Cash and Carr win!

The video below (out of order, I know, but slightly lower quality than the above) has Jonathan and Jimmy warming up. They have been tennis partners for many years and Jonathan mentions that they “play 2-3 times a week” (or did, back in 2008).
