Just had a very interesting e mail from Alex containing comments from a friend of his who attended the live event and said it felt awful, no real enthusiasm and much demanding screams and applause during the much needed commercial breaks.

I shall (pointless) write new BPI Chairman Ged suggesting improvements (pointless) such as changing the venue (profits drop alarmingly) and adding decent original and interesting ingredients to boost viewing value AND event enjoyment.

But it's pointless. As dear Gordon Elsbury used to say to me "JK I don't know why you bother".
