my boys spent some of Sunday afternoon with their new BBC Proms batons
Aww - that's sweet! My girls are (almost) 11 and 8 and I think enjoyed the other pieces (mostly) and insisted on singing along with the Wagner - "Kill de Waaaaabit!" (thank you, Mel Blanc!)
I know they'd have loved to have heard All the Strange, Strange Creatures and some of the other wonderful "set pieces" from earlier series. But yes, it's a "typical Prom" thing to do; and I completely understand why they do it, but maybe I'm just too cynical from years in the business.
