Hi - yep - after watching Hickstead first of course - oh and spending time in the garden with doggies.

Really enjoyed it - missed the ballet - OH was moved by that bless him LOL

Although I know its live I found the TV coverage/losing sound at the end of each act really annoying - the presenters kept getting it wrong too - which again know its live but please! you should know whats coming up!

Also bit disappointed HRH's used cards to speak to the crowd - my 10 year old can learn speeches/lines better than them!

P-Diddy was one of my faves and Elton and TAKE THAT and Lilly Allen - oh so many got me dancing and singing - OH got annoyed with me though LOL

Thought that was annoying too about the sound.

Elton was great, thought he was going to sing CiW though, Take that FAB.
The film footage at the end was emotional.
The Joseph's were GREAT

Overall a great show.

Yep, Andrew Lloyd Webber's presentation was great and I also thought Will Young was great.. his dance routine was sensational.

There were others I didn't enjoy so much. Rod Stewart for instance. I was expecting his rendition of Maggie May to take me back in a nostalgic sweep to my teenage years. But it was more of a sing-along-a-Rod with none of the feeling of the recorded version.

Hi and yes had a real lazy sunday - watched it all! and really enjoyed all of it. Like others the sound cuts were a bit annoying, but overall a good variety. Great to see Mr Ferry - smoothie
Visited the Diana water fountain memorial a few weeks ago when we went up to see Phantom of the Opera ( brill )
