Is Anyone Watching The Re-Run On Bbc1 Of The Ve Celebrations?

[naomi24]

I'm in tears ...again.

I am naomi,

Missed it 1st time, but its so funny, so sad, and nice to see the audience plus kids dancing and waving the flags.

Impressed with Pixie Lott, thought she was a pop singer.

[trt]

Oh, forgot to say, Chris Evans doing a superb job.

[stuey]

Is this a recent movie or a compilation of actual film clips, such as "Pathe News" from the actual event?

[naomi24]

It's the celebration that took place in London earlier this year. The old clips are from newsreel at the time.

[stuey]

OK, thanks. I didn't realize that they had had a live event in London earlier this month.

[naomi24]

I hope you're enjoying it, Stuey.

Fab isn't it trt. This country does these things so well!!

[stuey]

Unless the BBC has it on their "Magazine" section, or somewhere else on-line, I wouldn't know where to look for it in Ontario, Naomi.

Me. Missed it the first time round. Cried over Jane Horrocks' reading and now enjoying Alfie Boe, who I love. Great, great show.

I found the officer's Last letter to his mother extremely moving.

[naomi24]

Oh, sorry. I didn't realise you are in Canada. Can you access Youtube? I think it's on there.

[chaptazbru2]

They were SO brave those young men.

[stuey]

Thanks, I'll take a look there later on today.

Oh really? I just googled the name of the ship out of interest.

[naomi24]

Yes, very sad.
