Comments

Full TV broadcast of the annual charity event

featuring the current west end shows, comedians,

(none of whom are actually funny!!) 

singers and other acts, in front of Her Majesty.

Featuring a lengthy tribute to Cameron Mackintosh

which would later be expanded into the stand alone special

"Hey, Mr Producer" released on DVD several years later. 

All in near perfect quality.
