I am very surprised that the BBC let the sound on those mic's go out like that.....
When it was being recorded on Wednesday night, they had *great* concerns over the sound quality on them (they were not just props, but real ancient mic's from TOTP past!) - Janice Long's mic kept cutting out altogether at one point and they had to keep stopping and starting all the time. You could hear in the studio that the quality of the speech from those presenters mics was bad - but I didn't realise it was *that* bad !!!
And yes - we were told that they filmed a time lapse piece as all the audience and crew filtered out - then it was to end with Jimmy turning off the lights. They played a Queen track - "We are the Champions" whilst we were all walking out - this would have been great if they used it ! Never mind.
Oh well - that's that then.
Until "The best of 2006" TOTP special at "the end of the year" - did they mention this on broadcast tonight? I can't remember?? It was definately recorded in the final link in studio on Weds night......
