Last night of the Proms

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Who else is settling in for the evening? Missed most of the first half due to Doctor who but we have lots of cheese and biscuits and wine and hooray!

Hear the love for Glasgow....is it a case of "Please don't go"? :(

My DS is too little at the moment. But I think I might copy your tradition of watching the proms and letting him stay up late.

My two are watching in their PJs

I used to watch with my grandparents.

I agree Secret

I'm going to like this... Who doesn't like Mary Poppins?!

Hope she's in better voice than she was a few weeks ago in Billy Elliot

My two have perked up at the appearance of Mrs Wilkinson though.

Spoonful of sugar medicine lahlah

I started letting the DCs watch last year at 9 and 7. Loving Mary Poppins.

This is pitched much lower than the original. I guess for the karaoke singing park promenaders?

Fly a kite up to the highest sky

Oh that's why I can sing along!

I hope they have Feed the Birds as part of it.

I wouldn't bet in that Hester. She was really struggling when we saw her sung live last month.

I just said to DH, maybe we should let DS watch this next year and he said 'why, he's not going to like it'. :(

Don't like her voice - I know she's not that old but it's got that "past it" sound when it has too much vibrato

There you go Nutella.

I always tear up at this one

Only Julie Andrews can sing this.... :(

:( itsnoteasy. If you make it a treat then it becomes a treat.

I think some of these park primers have had a drink or two

I saw her in Miss Saigon 24 years ago & she was fabulous then.

Really? Poor Ruthie :(

Feed the Birds is one of the best moments of cinema ever. I am in no way being sarcastic there...it's wonderful. Oh this is fab. I would be bawling if I were there.

Need a tissue Hester?

Prommers, stupid phone!

:( I think of this in traffy square with sadness cos you can't feed the birds anymore.
