Hannah Waddingham - Time After Time, BAFTA In Memoriam

Hannah Waddingham performs a stunning rendition of Time After Time during the BAFTA Film Awards In Memoriam segment.

[@nonniejill]

I think singing it at this tempo with her wonderful vocal nuances let's us all sink deeper into the song's eternal meaning. Thank you, Hannah

[@newtonduck1]

I've been listening to this song my whole life, and this is the first time I've clearly heard some of the lyrics. Lovely.

[@princesskaguya2000]

The choice to let the song peel away without finishing was stunning

[@heathermcphed2344]

This was absolute perfection....gave me chills. What a rendition of the song and it fit perfectly with the memoriam and all the great people the world lost.

[@tennislover5763]

I was blown away by her voice watching the 2024 Olivier Awards last night. Knew she was an amazing actress, but her singing is beautiful and exceptional.

[@heatherr9959]

She is absolutely incredible.

[@romanosaraviadis]

Is there anything this woman can't do amazingly??!! I mean, I don't think there's been such a multi-talented under-the-radar actress for at least the past 10 - 20 years... : )

[@mindfullymellow2323]

❤ Very challenging to sing this song with that piano accompaniment. Requires impeccable breath control and timing. Hannah has such impressive range - and talent.

[@jaylovell-watson6335]

I know the world is catching up BUT how is this woman not an absolute super star?!!!

[@dianeaspin1684]

she is definitely well on the way now the americans are catching on to what we knew already

[@mike7002]

Well, she is, isn't she?! :) Every time I go to the West End I simply marvel at the talent. We are very lucky in this country to have the West End.

[@brmam1385]

T@@mike7002 Also lucky to not have to travel so far within your country to be able to see her. Having said that, I’ve no doubt it’s as ridiculously expensive to buy tickets, travel, book a hotel for a few nights, plus meals as it is here in US! You ARE lucky!♥

[@philliptaylor991]

My God that was beautiful. Isn’t she a wonder?❤

[@NPA1001]

BAFTA consistently do the in memoriam section better then The Oscars

[@santiago76able]

...better thAn the Oscars

[@julirowen3988]

I like that the audience holds their applause until the end. Classy.

[@margaretdickinson8471]

Her beauty, and a magic voice stunned the audience into a suitable reverence for those who have passed on but gave us amazing pleasure.

[@MFARAJR1018]

Her beauty is so perfect and stunning I can picture her looking perfect without the makeup too looking stunning

[@deeluther1064]

Exquisite! This is, with all due respect to Cyndi Lauper, hands-down the best cover of this song I have ever heard in my life! I wish she'd do it again on March 10th in L.A. Perfect in every way! 🎤🌟👍

[@cyndilauper]

She's so great!

[@KirangopalSingh]

Hi queen

[@ktinxx]

Fantastic performance! So moving, so tender, and so evocative... A wonderful tribute to our lost greats. You touched our hearts - THANK YOU! 💔

[@kevanwilkinson1718]

our lives have been blessed by their lives, I thank them all and may they rest in peace ❤

[@soulsurvivorla]

I love this new emergence of Hannah Waddington, the songstress! Just waiting to see you in concert someday in Los Angeles!

[@rweltonlasso]

Respectfully, it’s Waddingham

[@MFARAJR1018]

I would pay to see her

[@mikewhite4560]

She's INCREDIBLE. What a VOICE 😅

[@BoredCertified]

Her voice is so amazing! Honestly, what can't this woman do?

[@bernadettebird2520]

A perfect song to remember those who have passed. Hannah’s voice was amazing ❤

[@AC-up6ls]

wow, man. goosebumps. Stunning performance and what a Gambon clip to end 'on..'

[@pamelaspooner7183]

Says it all about the audience's appreciation, that you could hear a pin drop - only her voice and the piano.....

[@pamelaledgerwood2004]

The most gorgeous woman singing with beautiful grace and elegance. She sings this song with a lovely subtleness that makes it profound. I wish she would make a CD of ballads.....I can watch her sing this song all night and day!!!!

[@user-jj3tw1sr7o]

Her beauty is the only thing that surpasses her talent.

[@brianbeans2190]

I never knew this lady was singer from a family of singers. I've just been blown away by every performance I've seen her in. Amazing voice and vocal range.

[@SandraLee-mz2yy]

Send Hannah to Eurovision next year

[@Martinbeef]

She's just incredible actress and performer

[@Jennifer_Laz]

Absolutely stunning with a beautiful voice. Pretty sure Cyndi Lauper approves❤️

[@aarongilmore1254]

I am an 80s kid and I honestly never knew all the words before. This version of the song reminds me of my dear departed mama

[@shopmobgm]

This NEEDS to be released. Maybe as a charity download? Absolutely stunning!!

[@ThePandaTea]

Couldn’t agree more.

[@pisstaker5552]

Feck off, it's absolutely terrible.

[@PatriciaGonzalez-cn3pn]

I mean it has been released just not by her.. original by Cyndi Lauper

[@shopmobgm]

@@PatriciaGonzalez-cn3pn dear me, I knew that. I think everyone has heard the original. This version is much better.

[@32446]

Prefer Cyndi Laupers version a million times over. This is dreadful.

[@cheryll8008]

I didn't know she can sing too. What a talented actress. So beautiful

[@LauraSomeNumber]

I believe she has done musicals on both Broadway and the west end.

[@user-pd6yk1qv5n]

It’s the most beautiful arrangement of this song I’ve ever heard! I agree, it needs to be released - Hannah is incredible.

[@igeetolentinoii4366]

There’s a rearranged cover by Tuck & Patti that’s feels similar but is not as slowed down as this…similar inflections in some parts too. Like this cover as well with Hannah’s vocals.

[@kimberlyhonig8030]

That was one of the classiest “In Memoriam” segments. Beautiful.

[@BillyAlabama]

Totally blown away. It was a distinct privilege listening to her.

[@MFARAJR1018]

I saw people with tears in there eyes your know that was touching performance I wish she got chance to singing it @ Oscar’s that pure honor

[@TheGrantharling]

This is the best that I have ever heard from her ! Hannah HAS to release this as a single ! It’s stunning ! May I even say better than the original

[@laurachapman6633]

My gosh! This woman is STUNNING!!! I love her voice.

[@NightwingTV]

I had no idea she was a singer, she’s so good!

[@alixaugustine9599]

She started in musicals in the West End. And really, that’s what she was doing until Ted lasso.

[@amydong2586]

Thanks for remembering Tom Wilkinson.....he was great in The Full Monty and Rush Hour

[@paulg903]

Wow, I didn't even know he died. Just had to Google it.

[@lindag56]

....and First Exotic Marigold Hotel. He played the judge who was searching for his lost first love and died on the trip

[@lancedom6349]

Never missed a note. Perfection.

[@bbsteele671]

What can't she do? Gorgeous ✔️ Hilarious ✔️ Brilliant ✔️ Amazing Actress ✔️ Beautiful Voice ✔️ She checks off all the boxes! 💛🤍💜🖤

[@alihire]

Anyone can belt, very few can do understated.

[@howardlenow]

There is no one better than Hannah W.

[@robanks3895]

Is there no end to Hannah's talent, beautiful voice.

[@user-qu4pe3mt9m]

SHE IS A STAR!

[@maureen8223]

Best rendition of this song I have ever heard. Hannah shines once again!

[@voices_vary]

Stunning! I had no idea she was a singer, I saw her in Ted Lasso. Excellent!

[@Sharpe1502]

I’m pretty sure her first screen role was in Les Miserables. She originated on the stage.

[@voices_vary]

@@Sharpe1502 She's an enormous talent. Loved her in Lasso!

[@TheCleo223]

@@Sharpe1502what role did she originate in les miz? I saw it in 1985 Barbican and West End.

[@bonniefells7585]

Very beautiful and elegant. A nice memoriam. They certainly chose the right person in Hannah Waddingham to perform this song.

[@lyndagroeger7306]

This was so moving ,I'd just lost my mum 17 years ago and the original song followed me everywhere I went supermarket's, radio,TV, not a song my mum would have been familiar with ,but I cried everything I heard it,stunnjng

[@victoriahibbert7573]

Absolutely stunning rendition, She has a lovely voice, very emotive ❤

[@MA-qp9qi]

thank you for uploading this. i am in tears. her rendition, the areglo, and the transition from spoken lines to the singing and back. beautiful.

[@maxthelab8457]

That was just lovely....................Hanna is so classy.

[@williamkeough]

Wow. So many beautiful choices in her performance of that song.

[@washingtonsilva5020]

The most beautiful in memorian sectiom I ever saw ❤️💔♥️

"I will be waiting" and then it cut to Kings Cross with Dumbledore. 😭 RIP Michael.

I am mindblown. Stunningly beautiful

[@jacobgonzales-butorac6733]

Absolutely crying!

[@judylav5]

Fantastic… what presence… what grace… what a voice!!!

[@F1KillerQueen]

Completely STUNNING. Young girls of today should NNOOTT be looking at TikTok or Bloggers or Vloggers as women to admire. The young girls should look and admire women like Hannah Waddington, Glenda Jackson, Annie Lennox, Pankhurst Sister, Millicent Garrett Fawcett and various women like that.

[@jesschancw]

I absolutely love her rendition❤❤❤❤

[@RaRo1310]

Absolutely beautiful...what a stunning singer and rendition to honor these amazing artists we lost!

[@mrs.c5471]

Amazing, I finally understand that song

Stunning - shes just so amazingly perfect for this world

Extraordinary and very moving version of the song. Such a grace full tribute to those we’ve lost.

[@kassiydris4208]

Wow!!! Beautiful 😍 version and very classy and respectful. It touched my heart. Great version of the Song. Great job Hannah. 🙏💖🕊️🙏

I wish there there was way to get contact the Oscar’s to tell them to check Hannah performance @ BAFTAS she deserves to perform @ Oscar’s

[@dianeaspin1684]

I have watched this every day since she sang it...just gets better...love it she is perfection x

[@user-gm3hy3us3i]

She is such a talented lady and this was beautifully done. 💔

[@retzcat62]

Beautiful woman, beautiful voice! Showing so many faces I've watched over my lifetime!

[@Kmontreal]

I love this woman since I first saw her in Game Of Thrones, back then I didn't know who she was but her famous "shame, shame" made adore her. She's excellent!

[@donnalichvarcik5588]

Fun fact: way before Hannah was a Emmy sag and golden globe winner for Ted lasso she landed elphaba aka the wicked witch in Andrew Lloyd Webbers version of the wizard of Oz

[@alyssarosenbaum1]

Elphaba is the name of the "Wicked Witch" in Wicked, but in the Wizard of Oz, it's just the Wicked Witch--at least, in terms of role names, for clarity's sake. (But I'm willing to bet she could do a great job as Elphaba too)

[@connienicholson35]

Stephen Schwartz is composer & lyricist of Wicked. Andrew Lloyd Webber had no involvement.

[@alyssarosenbaum1]

​@@connienicholson35 I was thinking the same thing as you. Hannah Waddingham did play the Wicked Witch in Lloyd Webber's musical version of Wizard of Oz, though--but the character was not called Elphaba as she is in Wicked, hence the confusion here. 🤔 The person who posted this called the character by the same name, but they are distinct characters from different musicals. Stephen Schwartz wrote the music for Wicked...no involvement in that show from Andrew Lloyd Webber.

[@spinnetti]

Time takes us all. Never thought I'd hear Cindi Lauper sound like that!

[@waruta14]

Wow. Gorgeous. Best cover I've ever heard of this song. Wow.

[@anaderol5408]

I've admired HW for some time and it's great to read all the appreciative comments on this site. It reaffirms that there are still some of us on this earth that appreciate true talent and who don't need singers to show an excess amount of body parts, who wiggle their posteriors at the camera, who descend onto the stage....or raise up to the rafters, who are not surrounded by a battalion of dancers, laser beams, fireworks etc. Just pure talent (and no doubt years of hard work).

[@brmam1385]

YES!❤

[@leotatem4879]

That was fantastic

[@matteoanderton4909]

Who knew? Fabulous vocal control. Another string to this stunning woman’s bow!

[@chloeperdrix8867]

She actually started out in musical theatre

[@pianonine]

OMG the effing tears filled with this incredible tribute and her perfect voice for it. Thank you, dear Hannah. I love your voice too much.

[@Fishsticks007]

She put on a FABULOUS Christmas special in London -filmed. In 2023! Excellent! Many of the cast from Ted Lasso were there as were London gay mens chorus. True classy entertainment.. and her parents were in the audience! She has an amazing range! Her voice is like butter
