I watch this every year, used to watch as a kid with my parents and a lovely evening of great music and a bit of pomp and pageantry. Let’s hope this isn’t true

Never knew night at the proms was so popular until today, let alone the amount of individuals who religiously watch it for the same songs year in year out.

I've been saying this for years - and I can also never understand the clamour to replace it with the equally as dreary 'Jerusalem' either. They should just make 'World In Motion' (all of it - John Barnes rap and housey piano riff included) the national anthem and have done with it.

As I’ve got older I seem to have watched it more Probably because it’s one of the very last patriotic events left that’s allowed to be shown on Television.

I’d love to see our national football team singing the John Barnes rap before a crucial World Cup qualifier in Rome (arrivederci it’s one on one) 🤣

What other 'patriotic' events were there (and why are they no longer allowed to be televised)? I can't think of any (they still show the trooping the colour and a load of other anachronistic bollocks don't they?).

The Indoor league with Fred Trueman could get a bit feisty when those foreigners came over to challenge the brits😏

I know I'm going off topic here but I always loved Billy Connelly. Mostly for his fantastic tour around Australia that he did in the 90's, it was on the tele & he went around on a motorbike showing you interesting stuff mixed in with clips of his gigs. I also always remember one of his jokes about how great "Fuck off" was. He explained it in a way that if someone is annoying you then a "go away" doesn't really cut it as it just kind of falls out of your mouth "Goooo awaaaaay" (Hard to get across in text on a screen!) But you couldn't beat a good "FUCK OFF!!!"
Never been able to find the clip but it must be out there somewhere. (You can find plenty of him swearing or talking about swearing, but never found that specific one).

Not sure which is more toe curling that or the fucking boat race.

Quite simple. If BLM dont like the play list then they should watch a bit if Stormzy or Dave, and leave those of us who do like it to make our own choice.

Get the chip off your shoulder and enjoy it for what it is. There is some amazing stuff on the proms to suit all soughts of tastes.
