However he dressed his performance was brilliant.

Bravo - the Proms is about music, and I agree it was superb

Not my thing sadly. I can appreciate the amazing talent but it bores me to tears.

Until they do all the hits at the end. I love that, always have.

Respect to you Percy.

Brilliant...even gives the conductor a fist bump at the end...maybe the gaby and acorns shirt was in recognition of gabys unpublicised work and very large donations he makes to them...

On a side note they played a tune by Granville Bantock who lived in Harborne.

Pool song no Nigel. 2nd half brilliant again . God knows how many themes he worked in. What a boost for acorns, and a bloke who should be with England. Splendid.

The programme is still on - you can go to the iPlayer and then choose the live feed and click on 'Restart the current programme' - use the slider to get you to about 10 to 10, when he came on.

Rule Brittania now. I love being British, if countries were football clubs Britain would be Villa. The one with all the class and tradition.

There's a little Villa flag on the conductor's podium.
