The official Backstage Now video:

Some of the Billys express their sadness about the show ending. "To think that what you see tonight. you will never see again, unless you go to the show in London"...

The mashup is shot from the audience as well as from the wings, which is very cool :) Also scenes of the mashup rehearsal.

Final words of Dennis Willekens (Mr. Braithwaite): "We could not have wished for a better final night".

For those who were there, a question: Did Billy and Michael use their real first names when they said their final goodbyes, as has become the custom?

Zie je , Rogier.

Ja, zie je, Sammy.

In all three performances I saw it was Billy and Michael used, not their actual names. In the Saturday afternoon and evening performances the Michaels almost left it too late and had to shout to be heard above the applause which caught them unawares.

I have been re-watching some of the Youtube videos today - a magical experience, well worth the expense of ticket, hotel and flight. Just noticed that the film version is being screened on BBC4 tonight. Might possibly have enough time to nip out and get a pasty from the Co-op (there is actually a Co-op store about 250 yards away from where I live, and it does sell them !)
