BBC Big Night of Musicals viewers say 'tell me I'm wrong' as show flooded with complaints

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Viewers of the BBC's Big Night of Musicals shared the same complaint on social media as they pleaded: "Please tell me m I'm wrong!" Following a triumphant show in Manchester last year, the stars from a range of different musicals all came back together under the same roof for another spectacular night of entertainment.

The show, which took place at the AO Arena last month with Jason Manford as host, was put on by the National Lottery as a way of saying thank you to lottery players for the amazing support they gave to tens of thousands of arts projects and over 2000 theatres during the pandemic.

After taking place live in the city last month, those who weren't lucky enough to get a seat at the arena were given the chance to see 13 incredible West End and touring musicals in the same show as it aired on BBC One on Saturday night (March 25).

There was also a special performance from Aspects of Love featuring Michael Ball. But as the series of show-stopping performances unfolded, BBC viewers couldn't help but share their thoughts on social media with some claiming they 'couldn't watch'. @Tombenoly tweeted: "Can’t watch due to the miming #BigNightOfMusicals." @JonOrton commented: "#BigNightOfMusicals Great stuff so far!!
