'Who doesn't check twice behind the shower curtain now?' asks presenter Edith Bowman, kicking off a spinetingling evening of thriller film soundtracks from the excellent BBC Concert Orchestra, under the assured direction of American conductor Edwin Outwater at the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall.
The Sound of Philadelphia, a celebration of “50 years of Philly Soul,” hosted by Sir Lenny Henry, celebrated the Philly soul genre, which is 'characterised by funk influences and lush string and horn arrangements,' so it only makes sense that the music of the night would be performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra.
Singers Beverley Knight, Andrew Roachford, Omar Lye-Fook, and Tony Momrelle will join Sir Lenny Henry at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday 19 October for The Sound of Philadelphia – marking 50 years of Black-owned soul music label, Philadelphia International Records, and legendary songwriting partnership Kenny Gamble, Leon Huff, and Thom Bell.

Theories have been circulating this week about how Idol fans need not wait until Thursday nights to figure out who will be voted off America's favorite reality competition. As quite a few publications have recently pointed out, the number of twitter followers each contestant has collected is a pretty clear indication of who is here to stay.
In tonight's episode of American Idol, the top 12 got to take a stab at one of the most popular themes in the history of the show- song's from the year they were born. And this episode marked the very first live performance episode (no fake outs this time).

Ryan Seacrest and the American Idol judges have been referring to this year's finalists as the lucky 13. We've followed them as they have traveled from their hometowns, to Hollywood, to Vegas, and right back to the Idol stage. Last night we heard 13 desperate people singing for their lives in the hopes of snagging America's votes for the second time.
In yet another season 10 twist from American Idol, tonight's top 13 performances were pre-taped...again. A FOX rep told People magazine, 'We have pre-taped shows at this stage of the competition before ... although it's rare.' Why the hold up, you ask? This being only the second time in Idol history that there are 13 finalists instead of 12, producers wanted to make sure all of the performance fit into the 2 hour time slot.
It's one of the most common rejections on American Idol: 'Sorry, but you're better suited for Broadway.' But as we've seen over the past ten years, American Idol and the Broadway stage are not mutually exclusive - not by a long shot! In fact, it's the opposite: every single season of the show has either borrowed talent from the New York theatre or created stars that have rocked musicals on Broadway and/or on national tours across the country.
Every year, tens of thousands of hopefuls from across the nation audition for a shot at stardom. The show's judges travel across the country in search of the next AMERICAN IDOL. They winnow down the competitors to a select group of semifinalists who sing their hearts out each week in front of a studio audience and television viewers.
