emmapeelfanclub	The American viewing figures are absolutely pathetic too... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6286922.stm 2 Billion is a farcical and fanciful figure!
Anthony	Two billion viewers seems an outrageous claim for them to make. Were almost a third of the world's population watching? I hardly think so.
Vince W	I watched and enjoyed most of it, was slightly annoyed at the Beeb's tendancy to cut away whilst halfway through a set to show you a pre-recorded piece from another show? Did we need to cut away from the Beastie Boys to watch Rhianna doing SOS? Madonna was amazing though the preaching by Terance Stamp beforehand was boring. I did find the honesty of Jonathon Ross's guests quite refreshing. He asked Ricky Gervais if he though this concert would make a difference... he replied - What, like Live Aid stopped hunger in Africa and Live 8 wiped out global debt?
Pete Clarke	I watched! 'Twas so much better than the tripe served up by the Princes last week... I thought Metallica were absolutely amazing and I couldn't believe the BBC's decision to cut them short and switch to Crowded Effing House (more like Crowded Stage) performing Weather With You. What a load of shite. But overall, it looked great on my 50inch plasma (which, BTW, is one of the best investments I've made for years). Adios, Pete
emmapeelfanclub	Well according to BBC News, Live Earth's viewing figures failed to get anywhere near those of the Diana concert - it got just less than a third of viewers which puts this pointless event into a different perspective entirely and perhaps goes to prove that the British are more sceptical about the "message" it hypocritically tried to convey. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6283632.stm I didn't bother with Live Earth nor Diana. Don't agree with such shows and the only REAL benefit from them will be the increase in product sales this week for the acts that participated.
