Watched Jules Holland for new Year.

And dear lord. Kylie is quite clearly the utter, utter successor to the Marilyn Monroe and all that type when it comes to singing - charming everyone (especially David Tennant) all over the place, lying on the piano to sing to Jules, early on, and then her last song? 'I Should Be So Lucky' with Jules on piano , slowed right down and done as a lounge song. Gorgeous. Really.

Also there : madness, Kate nash, Duffy, a couple of people I can't remember their names, Kaiser Chiefs, Mika, Lulu, Paul mcCartney and some old bloke singing bluegrass. Kylie and Madness had most number of songs to sing.

Oh, and John Simm, Jackie Stewart, Lenny Henry, Dawn French, Imelda Staunton, Bernie Ecclestone and a host of mad characters. That was one of those gigs that looks way too much fun to be at.

Yeah, but Jools is turning into a boring old fart. And-and .. Roland Rivron again AGAIN. And he never spoke to Jo Rowling, who I THINK I saw several times amongst the celeb-crowd.

*feels old and jaded*

*Loved* John Simm going all fanboy over just being in the same room as Paul McCartney.

I thought the bluegrass bloke was called C-16 right until the end when they had his name on a title card and it turned out to be Seasick Steve.

...seriously? I could've sworn Jools said C-16 as well and thought it was a particularly post-modern name for a grizzled bluegrass singer in overalls and thought maybe he'd just got the name by accident. (or in a mate's band's case, they couldn't decide on a name and told the announcer the first thing they saw the first time they played a proper gig)
