LOL at the woman crying at 5:56
And wasn't there a piece with a soloist at the beginning?

You're right. The original started with "The Mad Man with a Box", which was missed from the tv version.
Most of the dialogue was fairly heavily cut, sometimes cutting off the presenters mid-sentence.
And the Doctor got to ramble on a bit more in his scenes. They cut a section between the Doctor saying "What you don't understand is this..." and "We've saved the Royal Albert Hall" (that included the ITV reference).
The Doctor re-intorduction of the presenters, where he described Matt Smith's name as dull, was also cut.
Tonight's version was fun - but still missing the ITV bit.
I always imagined the person who sang Vale Decem was a woman - surprised to see it was a beardy bloke! They must have really been squeezing the pliers hard.

Yeah, that extended version was much better. Still no, "Song of Freedom" this time, but it was in the 2008 Prom.![]()

Yikes! Gotta admit it surprised the hell out of me when I discovered it was a guy. Just an amazing voice.
Apparently, he's the equivalent of a castrato - thankfully that went out of fashion. >crosses legs<![]()
It must be such a hoot for Gold to not only have his music played at The Albert, but as part of the Proms, must be so uplifting for a composer.
