Did anyone catch this on BBC1 last night? I saw the excerpts from Wicked, Avenue Q, Spamalot and The Sound of Music.....they were all great! Although Idina's voice was *really* cracky and hoarse, I thought. Any opinions?

Apparently she had a cold. I don't know why but everytime Idina does a TV appearance singing Defying Gravity she always seems to have a problem. I also heard she hates heights. Which isn't a good thing for that role. Anyhow I loved the whole show. And also my Mum now wants to go see Avenue Q, lol.

Avenue Q was brilliant!!! The actors are really talented, being able to control the puppets and everything! And yes, to be honest I think Idina has ruined her voice....it might just've been a cold and, to be fair, my friend saw her and said she was outstanding....but...I dunno....I've seen 3 TV performances now and, in my opinion, none of them were as amazing as she's made out to be.

Look up theatre recordings on youtube, you can see her in her full glory there.

Wow, the whole Wicked performance came across as bad - bad mixing, Idina's voice being shot, awful camera angles during Defying Gravity, just not a good way to go.
Spamalot and AveQ looked great, and I loved the bit with Lucy hitting on Charles. Also nice to see someone in the cast of Torchwood doing something decent. =P

I thought he done the opening number really well. Although I think they could have picked a more upbeat song to show off Johns Voice. |
