Doctor Who Prom 2024

Yesterday saw Doctor Who return to the Royal Albert Hall for the latest promenade concert. There were two performances, one in the afternoon and one in the evening.
The latter is available now on BBC Sounds, running to 3 hours - though I saw online that the content only ran to around 45 minutes. They usually pad it out with popular, sci-fi related classical pieces, and there would have been an intermission as well. The event was filmed, due to be screened later in the year, possibly Christmastime.
Catherine Tate hosted, and there was an on stage appearance by Anita Dobson as Mrs Flood, in her white ensemble. Both Murray Gold and Segun Akinola were present, with RTD and Susan Twist among the audience.
The usual monsters patrolled the auditorium, including Cybermen, Judoon and Chuldur.
