It really is one of the best things to have an event like this hosted by someone who can stand at the front and appear that she could sweep the categories herself. It's like she's transcended: she doesn't get nominated for them now, she bestows them on others.

she should be the next presenter for the oscars

everything this woman does is absolute perfection. she was born to be on the stage.

She is a force of nature; a blinding joyfulness; a one person superpower; a brilliant event in herself who still not only shares the limelight but highlights and celebrates her colleagues; a limitless talent; a timeless treasure and a much-needed alternate source of energy who electrifies the performing arts. Bravo! Bravo !

It is impossible to watch this woman perform and not be thrilled. We just love her at our house.

Young Girls of today should ADMIRE the likes of Hannah and Annie Lennox, for being STRONG women. Instead of some TikTok (so-called) STAR, who wears ten inches of make-up and had Gods know how much Botox to make them so-called beautiful.

THAT IS HOW YOU OPEN AN AWARD SHOW

Confirmed National Treasure status now, surely. Phenomenal.

Everything about this woman is big, lush and fabulous: the voice, the personality, the smile, the look. I just LOVE her

Is there anything this woman can’t do?? Omg I’m speechless

I think she is fabulous, the sort of performer we don't see very often now .

Now that’s an OPENING NUMBER….. PERFECTION!!!!

She is so talented, she has a presence like actors/singers of old...I know its minor thing she did but all the languages she speaks (eurovision) was so impressive and very rare! She is top notch

The amazing Hannah. A true British icon.

Im only here cuz she scolded a photographer, now I know who Hannah Waddingham is and will never forget after that!

That’s how to open a show. A oh so familiar classic reinvented and reinvigorated and sensationally delivered by all - not just Hannah - by all concerned.

Wow - I just that little smile she directs at the camera towards the end.

Caught that little sly smile as well, 1st time I’ve seen or heard of her… she had me at the first minute

She is life. Infectious!

She is a bombshell of an actor in terms of the quality of performances and will always blow everything out of the park. My first encounter with her was as the wicked witch in the Wizard of Oz revival back many moons ago. What I would like to see her do again (and I bet she would have way too much fun doing it) is the Lady of the Lake in Spamalot

I want to see this woman cast in a revival of Mame on Broadway!!!

She is the whole package. An excellent actor, a fine human being, and a bomb shell who can sing the hell out of any song. WOW!

I knew she was hysterical....but did not know she could sing like that! Guess I am late to the party! Incredible!

Now THAT is a showstopper! And its the opening!!!! BRAVO 👏 🌹

Simply sensational,.... FABULOUS ....

Absolute goddess. Every second of this performance is absolute theatrical, soulful perfection

I've been crushing on her since Ted Lasso 😊

I am ready for the Hannah Waddingham album. ❤❤

Not forgetting the perfect collaboration with the London Community Gospel Choir Hannah Waddingham & Joe Stilgoe made the right choice!

She did that!!! Excellent! The choir was fire!

This woman deserves so much more...her Christmas show this past year was fun as sh*t, and this is in a similar vein...I need to know who she has arrange her music. She clearly has a vision for it but has someone who gets that vision to execute these arrangements and it's BRILLIANT

She talked about getting this song together in an interview yesterday and she did have a vision in mind and things that she wanted, such as the choir and the orchestra and I assume after deciding on the song it was a collaboration of her and Joe Stilgoe. I think I also remember her talking about wanting jazz vibes or something similar but I'm not 100% sure with that one 😅

The whole thing was on KZread in Gibraltar a couple of hours later, possibly livestreamed also, I don't know. So strange not available yet in Great Britain. Hannah Waddingham is just phenomenal.

Yeesssss Queen!

Incredibly versatile and beautiful voice: very good!

My Dad would have loved this...and her. 40's fantastic jazzed up pizzazed up entertainment. Stunning Hannah..super choirs snd real orchestra. Just grand.

Hannah is the absolute BEST !!!

Glorious

Just WOW!

Speechless...

She'd be great as a lady villain on James Bond franchise. She did an Agatha Christie's Partners In Crime series of Tommy & Tuppence detective novels by Christie where she played the lady assassin. She was great in that. I would love to see her on the British stage singing. Beautiful woman with a beautiful voice and oh so talented too.

It is SO classy, I miss this kind of thing in the USA! Nuff Said.
