    Think it will be sad at times too...

    Lovely idea to commemorate something so significant in history.

    My only issue so far is Chris Evans, just doesn't seem right rambling through his script with his hand in his pocket.

    I think he's trying to appeal to the younger generation that will be watching, well that's if any young ones are watching..

    I think Chris Evans is doing OK. I like his relaxed approach and informal manner.

    It must be bringing back some memories for him... Luckily he was too young to actually fight then..

    Missed the first 20 minutes, who was on before the Quo?

    Quo looking smarter than ever and they can still put on a great performance,

    I thought Laura Wright was great! She comes from Framlingham where Ed Sheeran was brought up.

    I think they have been chosen because they are famous actors.
