I thought there was already a thread about this programme but I can't find it. I just wanted to say that I've just watched the last programme where the boys got to sing at the Royal Albert Hall and I'm still mopping up my tears. (I'm such a sucker for this kind of thing.) Did anyone else watch it? I thought it was a lovely idea and a great programme.

Yes I watched it too - with a big lump in my throat. Very moving - especially the little boy with Hodgkins Disease. Didn't you love him?
I think this was a brilliant idea for a programme and I have been hooked - as I was on the one last year. I hope this isn't the last one. Wonder what the next challenge would be?
I loved this programme. Its nice, for once to watch on TV, something so positive. We need many more programmes like this. I really hope he does another one.

Wasn't it brilliant? My husband insisted on watching something else on one of the early programmes, but I put my foot down for the last two and he too got hooked. What was so wonderful was seeing those boys blossom - especially the rapper and I just loved the little chap with the huge smile (who was the standby for the solo), and the wise blonde one and the boy with Hodginsons. They were all unique and special in their own way.
He gave them a feeling of self-worth, pride and loyalty to the school - didn't do much about their uniforms though - oh dear! We'd have been shot if we'd looked so scruffy in ours! :o)
I thought the first series was wonderful, but this was even more of a challenge, so even more of a success.
