Hats off to them all, they’re so used to a live atmosphere when performing but handled the digital delivery excellently, technology has a tendency to let people down occasionally but this was a great night! Thank you all

We had a fabulous night well done to DRT for organising the event, we live in Yorkshire and would have been babysitting the grandchildren who are in deeside so daughter and son In law could attend the event had it gone ahead as planned so we would have missed it but we were able to attend the online event, there were a few hiccups to start with but were soon cleared up. We were muted the whole time as we're the majority but there were one or two laughing out loud which made it impossible to hear the punch line sometimes but overall it was a great night
