The Les Miserables 25th Anniversary Concert at the 02 Arena last night was truly spectacular with the show projected on large screens for those sitting at the back of that vast auditorium.With all the “special” casting of Matt Lucas, Norm Lewis, Lea Salonga and Nick Jonas the real highlight was the “Four Valjeans” – Colm Wilkinson who the original and who sounded as good as ever, Simon Bowman from the London production, John Owen-Jones from the tour and Alfie Boe (special guest) singing Bring Him Home. They came on after the finale and Cameron Mackintosh's speech and provided a perfect ending to the evening by giving a really wonderful and moving rendition of the song.
You can hear the Four Valjeans here, and pre-order official DVD which is due for release on 29th November from Amazon here

Thank you so much for posting this clip. I couldn't get to the concert yesterday so will have to wait for the DVD.
It looks like a fabulous night.
Sorry to rub it in, but it was a great night. But in that vast arena unless you had a decent seat you were a long way from the stage, even with the back projection.
At least you'll get some good close ups with the DVD!
