I usually love this programme. Tonight we had the love story between the 90 year old man and wife Violet which was really touching. I also really like Alfie Boe so was at least expecting him to give them tickets for a West End show - instead he dedicated a song to the couple and sang it on the show. Anyone else think the song was just awful? - It was so loud and not a tender love song the old chap would have enjoyed listening to I'm sure - I couldn't even distinguish the words he was singing. Worst song ever from Alfie and he looked in complete pain in his face when singing it too!

Thanks Elina - I hadn't heard the song before, maybe as I'm not really into films.
Hasn't worked .. I'll try a different link ..

I can't get the youtube link - can anyone else open it?
One more try ..
Now Boes version ..
I agree it was most inappropriate for the occasion, it was Cool Rain I hadn't heard it before I am sure the gentleman didn't know it either, he could have sang something romantic and nostalgic even We'll meet again would have been lovely!
Lyrics in the first link Ann x

Couldn't agree more Cari ........... much better choice and most appropriate.

Thanks Elina - got it in the end x
Lovely story about the old man, but can't stand Alfie Boe.
Totally agree Ann, not a good choice of song at all. However, I am a big fan of Alfie Boe and think he is sex on legs !!

That old gentleman and his granddaughter were lovely.
^ Haha!
