OK, I feel bad for clogging up this thread with my technology woes, so I'm linking to JOJ's page on WestEndBoys.co.uk. The entire site is hysterical, but his page? Something else.

I'm not fond of Marius. Then again, there is nothing that could ever EVER compare to Michael Ball for me. His voice is the 9th wonder of the world.

Don't be mean about Jon! He's a brilliant Marius...amazing when I saw him.

But I do agree Michael Ball IS Marius.

Jon Lee is such a weird looking little man.

Aww, BJC899! But Act 2 is better than act 1! And more JOJ for all!

I think Alex Gemignani might've had trouble carrying him.

Nooooo they cut my favourite line from 'A Little Fall of Rain'....'I'll sleep in your embrace at last'. I love that line.

"Jon Lee is such a weird looking little man."

And yet he was arguably the best looking one in S Club 7!

Is it just me or the orchestra sounds abit weak? like reduced orchestration, or even (god forbid) help from recorded instruments?

AND, nevertheless, has anyone devised a way of recording this rare broadcast?

edit: Thenardier is awsome...

It's the Symphonia. So yes, some of them are recorded.

Well after Paul put on all thet weight and started not washing...

Although SClub boys were never really meant to be the good looking ones. The girls were there to do that.

OK, what, narrator?

"Marius returns to the students' now-deserted café." WTF?

Marius is at home recuperating and imagines he's in the cafe! The actual cafe is...well, rather a mess at this point. If it's still standing.

No, he returned recently. Gary Tushaw and Hayden Tee played the part after he left in 2003.

WELL, this has been amazingly beautiful!

anyway, if anyone has figured out a way to record or keep THIS recording, I would love you forever if you contacted me on musical_kid@yahoo.com . thanx!

This isn't the Symphonia. (Sinfonia?) This is a proper big orchestra.
