Cheek of it, you lot being mean about Jackie B. She interviewed my dad and he liked her (he wasn't famous or anything btw, it was a local story). It was in our house and she asked to have a look around, he refused to let her into my teenage bedroom as it was such a tip, apparently she thought it was very funny.

I'm just being nostalgic as my dad has been dead for 12 years now and we always used to tease him when she was on the telly.

Who the hell thought it was live? Sorry major naïveté marks...

you would be surprised

Sorry, I really did think it was live.

I am now the laughing stock of my family as it seems I was the only one!

The shame, the shame.

Jackie was all covered up in a coat tonight so no clavicles. The nationwide sing along of Auld Lang Syne was actually quite sweet.

I thought it was live too - why make it look live, when it isn't

glad i didn't tune in for long!

Watched Jools Holland it felt all wrong knowing it is pre recorded. The lineup was shite too. Ray Davies really should knock it on the head, the Lumieers were dog pump and Emili Sandie produces elevator music.

dog pump?

Ray Davies at the Olympic Ceremony made me twitch. I still have a Record Player & force the teens to listen to music by the masters. First Paul lets me down with his dye-job & warbling & then Ray follows suit?

Oh you need Jackie Bird at new year! And some terrible ceilidh band that haven't been out since the previous year. I love it.

I didn't know this
It was shit last night.

Dog pump

You'll be telling us next that people used to mime on Top of the Pops!

Oh no! This has really confused me. Is the year actually 6months old then? Do I need to put my calendar back?

surprised it was done so recently, I thought it was recorded in the summer.

truly awful bunch this year, someone needs to have The Talk with Ray Davies and all the other acts were dull, rubbish or both. Even the audience seemed lacklustre. Only good ones I saw were the Proclaimers and they look rather bored with '500 miles' now. (thinks back a few years to David Tennant dancing to it when it looked like the Hootenany was actually fun!)

knock it on the head, Jules. Enough.

Lisa Stansfield was dire. Never had much of a voice; none at all now.
