As reported in The Sun on 6th July 2007, this is the projected running order for the rest of the Live Earth London concert[2][3]. However this information is subject to change as the concert continues:
Coverage
Television
In Britain, the BBC provided live television coverage of the show on BBC Two, followed by BBC One later on, BBC Radio 1, and BBC HD. The television coverage was presented by Jonathan Ross, with Graham Norton and Edith Bowman backstage and commenced at 1:00PM BST on BBC Two and concluded at 5:20PM continuing on BBC One at 5:30PM.
Online
MSN will be responsible for the online broadcasting of the concert.
Notes
- Presenter Thandie Newton, stuck onstage when the link to Al Gore wasn't up yet since Al Gore wasn't ready, made the hilarious gaffe "saying that you've been to Live Earth is as sexy as saying you're 'hung like a warlord'". She was also so stuck for material she even recited a 'knock-knock' joke to the crowd.[citation needed]
- Chris Rock's explicit language during the introduction of the band Red Hot Chili Peppers has already caused problems with Canadian TV networks and the BBC. Rock is said to be fined for around $9,000.[citation needed]
- BBC interrupted the Bloc Party performance to show the Linkin Park performance of "What I've Done" from Tokyo.
- BBC missed the start of the Metallica set joining live halfway through the first song - then switched to Crowded House from Sydney before the end of the set.
- While playing "Big Bottom" Spinal Tap were joined on stage by various bass players from bands that preformed during the day.
