Hello Paige!  Your link works, but you have to click on the figure 1 at the top and then select the event. The direct link is easier. There are still over 500 seats available, six days before the concert, but the Royal Circle is nearly sold out.  Richard  |

Richard, you've mistaken Martin for Paige. Easy to do, since their avatars are the same person!  |

From the BBC2 website's programme listings -- broadcast time 18 March, 9 pm (note the programme will re-air on 22 March from 12.15 am) This one-hour programme is a happy birthday tribute celebrating the life and work of Dame Vera Lynn, including exclusive access to Dame Vera Lynn as she watches home movies and videos from the past with her d aughter Virginia. It tells the story of a working-class girl from Essex who changed the lives of so many - whose career spanned a whole century - singing at seven to help pay the family bills, falling accidentally into the limelight and still singing right up to today.
Dame Vera can't read music. She has never had singing lessons and even refused to change her singing style to fit in with the fashions of the day. Yet she sang at the Queen's 16th birthday and calls the royal family her friends. We meet the war heroes whose hearts she touched as she brought memories from Britain to the front line and find out how celebrities like Miriam Margolyes, Barry Humphries, Tim Rice and Sir Paul McCartney are still touched by Dame Vera's voice. We discover why she is a national treasure, and see her humility shine through - she really can't understand what all the fuss is about, despite being one of the greatest female singers this country has ever produced.

Captive Minds say 19 March at 2100 (my post)
BBC say 18 March at 2100. (Joe's post)

That's clearly an error on the Captive Minds website. It says 18th March twice but 19th March only once.  Here's the link to the BBC's programme page: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08k5v5lRichard |

I just received an email from the ticket agency asking me to be seated early for the concert "due to filming of this performance". I doubt that it will be part of the BBC2 broadcast the same evening, but there is a chance that at least part of it will be available to watch at some time. I guess this will make amateur photography even more of a no-no  |

Just be ready to take full note of her dress/outfit (I'll assume dress), and perhaps Hayley and those tweeting about the DVL events will post a social media photo or 2, and that'll tide us over.  |
