Well what a miserable, mean spirited lot you all are.

This was clearly meant as a light hearted take on Christmas and a little different from the usual Christmas entertainment and in that respect overall, it worked.

Sure there were aspects that could have been better. I also cringed when the Unthanks started on "In the Bleak Midwinter", but that was not because of the Unthanks performance, but because I cannot stand that ******* carol. I thinks it's awful.

I would have preferred some of the carols that are heard at singarounds and the like at Christmas rather than the well worn ones hear everywhere else, but if you are pitching at a more general audience, which I suspect this was, then compromises are inevitable.

No one has mentioned the Unthanks third song (whose title I do not know) but it was lovely music hall song, though Rachel perhaps did not "belt it out" enough, but her voice is not of that character.

Finally I thought the venue was gorgeous.
