Has anybody just watched this? I am very close to tears, am going to blame it on hormones! Today hasn't been a good tv day for me, first Neighbours and now this!

She is doing a tour with Katherine Jenkins called something like "Two Divas".

I saw it and was in tears, she's amazing and i think it was a really strong decision. I thought it was a shame that her last performance should be in a grey school gym kit and her last steps on that stage were that bizarre John Cleese Ministry of Silly Walks tribute though

Surely it will be repeated on one of the arty digital channels.

If you are very keen on watching it contact BBC... they are always very helpful in this aspect!
