I am a Republican - but will still be watching as a good line up. Just seen Queen and Adam Lambert being interviewed.

Did they have Freddie on the big screen? I missed the beginning! Lee Mack said he was? Sorry massive Queen fan!

Audience don't seem to be enjoying Jax Jones.

Love that Nandi Bushell's on the drums - she's fab.

They were doing so well with Queen but they lost the crowd (or the majority of the crowd over 35) with this set.

If I were a musical performer I'd totally do it from a sofa.

I'm here for the divas... Elton and Diana.
He's not very good atm.

CandyLeBonBon · 04/06/2022 20:23

Mabel did ok but John Newman is a bit off key!

LookItsMeAgain · 04/06/2022 20:23

We might be getting back on track with a bit of Elbow...

CandyLeBonBon · 04/06/2022 20:23

Is it me or are the dancers a bit rubbish?

I do feel for George and Charlotte. They've been to Wales today and now have a concert this evening.

Drummer lass was great.

Loved the Queen and Paddington but like some others not too impressed with Adam Lambert - he just doesn’t seem to have enough stage ‘presence’ to me! Did see him fiddling with his earpiece so wk see if they’ve got sound issues ?? Loved Zara Phillips helping Charlotte sort her goodie bag out at the start and Mike singing along to Queen 😎

BoJoSecretGF · 04/06/2022 20:24

Is Mabel miming?

Oh little George ,bless him .He so often looks discomforted and nervous .

They should just allow him to be there in comfy clothes. Not all jacked up in a suit. Even pjs would look more comfortable. He's only 8. Many years ahead for him to wear a suit.

LookItsMeAgain · 04/06/2022 20:24

I can only imagine what it's like back stage with the people lining up each performer...their stress levels must be through the roof!!!!

Twospaniels · 04/06/2022 20:25

Yes I’m watching!
loved the Queen having tea with Paddington Bear!
Prince George looks like a rather serious little boy. I wish they didn’t dress him in blazer and tie. I’d prefer to see him in jeans and a t- shirt (like most other 8 year olds)

frankie001 · 04/06/2022 20:26

We’ve used the Jax Jones segment to get the party food out!
elbow are good!

Ginajo · 04/06/2022 20:26

I've seen Adam Lambert perform with Queen. He was fantastic.

FredGarland · 04/06/2022 20:28

I love Elbow - happily singing along at home to the dismay of the teens Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 04/06/2022 20:28

Oh, this is very clever.

Gooseysgirl · 04/06/2022 20:29

God this is all so much better than the last concert ten years ago!!!

CuriousMama · 04/06/2022 20:29

Diversity are amazing

Gatehouse77 · 04/06/2022 20:29

The Queen and Paddington Bear was definitely the highlight!

To be honest, I preferred Remi Malik in Bohemian Rhapsody but Adam Lambert is very good.

Am liking the different stages making it more fluid between sets.

CuriousMama · 04/06/2022 20:31

Wish I was there

Iloveychildrenandmydoggie · 04/06/2022 20:31

Just home from work…wish I was there!!
