The BBC rightly takes dogs abuse for so many re ent failures, but credit where its due, this was a fantastic production, and surely now an annual event.

Good cover of a northern classic

[@andrewdignan3038]

Remember distinctly the excellent dancers at Wigan lifting the atmosphere when this was played. Really was a stomper.

[@user-rp5vr6sc1u]

It was a great show, trouble is, our secrets out now, everybody will want a go.

[@smfvmd]

Check out the Mel Tormé version of this song. They didn’t call him the velvet fog for nothing.

[@Diggers57]

Fab

[@traceyhart9607]

The orchestra had a ball they said so different to what they normally play.

[@user-mu2rn5fj7o]

All good Jay f,h Mods

[@jarrodsio]

silky voice. bravo Frida.

[@trickygood7528]

Beautiful & talented but how did George Galloway get in on the act.

[@johnbarrett2899]

Brilliant however some of the lyrics are incorrect 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@colinanthony7871]

The lyrics are way wrong, it's not "Better use your head to fall on baby", it's "Think for a minute" and the first verse is wrong too. Have to admit it's a great rendition though.

[@chriswhite6610]

Party pooper 😂😅

[@archierice333]

FABULOUS !! - FORGET RAPPING
