They need to find the next faces of the BBC, the next Terry Wogan and get them to host the show
This revolving door of presenters isn’t great. You can guarantee out of the 4 hosting tonight, 2 or 3 of them probably won’t be hosting next year
I thought it had become Graham Nortons show but he doesn't seem to have been involved for a few years now.

Some very wierd aspect ratio problems. The choir piece had a black bar at the top and not the bottom and now the Doctor Who bit was really squashed into the centre.
Also the WIN! screen for the Dr Who section was horrible to look at.

Sounds canned.
Is there a virtual audience watching or is it simple canned applause they are using in the studio?

Mandip in particular seemed to be looking slightly over to her right, rather than straight ahead into the camera lens.
Perhaps it was a tribute to William Hartnell reading his lines off of cue cards for his pre-recorded The Three Doctors inserts?!
Sounds canned.
Yeah, I doubt that the production crew - which will be as minimal as is practically possible - trying to be as rowdy as they can (à la Strictly) would be able to make the amount of "audience noise" we're hearing.
I’m SO glad that I wasn’t the only one that noticed how awful it was to look at. Also, where the hell where Jodie and Mandip looking?

There’s one thing that really stands out with all BBC Charity Telethons now and that’s just how cheap looking they are! Once upon a time 10 years ago they were a spectacle and exciting as well as being fairly well polished but now they just seem lacking and the care and attention in everything like the set and graphics just isn’t there. It’s a shame really.
