Aaaargh! That's even more annoying. I actually like Chic but I never watch BBC3. Is it listed in Radio Times (and other available listing magazines)?

It's only available online through iplayer, I had never watched BBC3 before.

You missed a treat but I am sure you could find it on catchup

Apart from Barry Gibb this year was poor, Ed Sheeran was very poor not even playing, or in parts singing live but with backing tracks. What's up with that ?

It's not unusual

You do get the impression that him (Corbyn) and John McDonnell are getting caught up in their own cult of celebrity at the moment.

I was at Glastonbury and it was amazing

To be honest I loathe Wimbledon as well but I won't complain about it. I just stick the radio on to Classic FM and ignore the news bulletins

I'm not a fan of Adele but at least she plays live.

But it is all live.... he doesnt use backing tracks, he uses a loop pedal, perhaps you need to have a google at it to see.

It's not one day, where I live we had Armed Forces Day about three or four weeks ago!

Not sure why you think that anyone 'should' go.

To be fair, selling out in "less than an hour" doesn't really mean anything nowadays as it's all down to automated buying for resale.

Not at Glastonbury where you have to preregister to buy tickets and that includes providing your photograph which is then printed on your ticket if you manage to get one.
