I love it ! after a few glasses of wine on a afternoon so typically British but fun us brits are not always stiff upper lip we like to have fun too ! and pomp and ceremony don't get me started ! no -one has the ability to do it better ! we are probably more patriotic than the yanks but not as loud(or heavy!)

@@duncanmckechnie4468 Heard this song for years growing up in Toronto, but never knew what it was called until just recently: I was reminded of a clip I saw before HM QE2 passed, of her and the family bopping up and down to this during her 2012 Jubilee. I always wanted to learn this on 1st violin but never knew the title. The Brits do it Best.

Love and Kudos to Sakari Oramo, who has conducted at the Proms with humour and grace. He didn't swan in and say "you need to move with the times." :( He appreciated the rituals and embraced them.

[@zubairibrahim3795]

Bring this back for 2021 !

[@asoru5573]

[@Loonyi]

We watched it from Germany last night and were delighted by the orchestra and the audience in the same way. Thank you for braodcasting it abroad as well! But, German television stations, could you please stop dubbing everything?

[@oldgitsknowstuff]

The Sailors Hornpipe, dubbed into German ! 'Gott I'm Himmel'. How does it translate ? Do the words still fit the song ?

[@lisabarker1784]

Jolly Good Show Old Chap! Seriously, I wish I was there!

'Do your balls hang low, Can you swing 'em too & fro. Can you tie 'em in a knot. Can you tie 'em in a bow. Do you ever get a feeling. When you're crashing through the ceiling, Oh you'll never be a sailor if your balls hang low. Aye thank you !

[@Insperato62]

Haven't heard that for years and years. Brilliant.

[@lauramacgillefhinnein5106]

God, I remember us all singing that as kids 😂.

[@johnemmanuel3298]

Are these the lyrics of the song?

[@oldgitsknowstuff]

@@johnemmanuel3298 Bloodyell.....youre quick ! YES.... strangely enough, its very popular sailors sea song that was remastered into more modern lyrics by vulgar sailors of the 20th century.

[@rfletch62]

Rule, Britannia! Sure looks like everyone was enjoying that!

[@KEEPONROCKINKID]

Its a shame you didn't include another minute for the encore

[@adamwithey4746]

I wish Mairead Nesbitt the Celtic Woman companion can play the Fantasia of British sea songs while she plays the violin in different medleys! She could come to the royal Albert hall in London to participate BBC PROMS for one day.

eu flags should be banned from this event

[@GuitarRocker2008]

I love how silly British people are willing to be once certain songs start playing

[@caijones839]

I'm too poor to understand what's going on here

[@bobsmith3291]

What the hell is going on here 😂

[@JimWalsh-rl5dj]

Why are these clowns waving the Eu flag? It is a celebration of being BRITISH and we are not part of Europe. We have stopped the Europeans for 800 years and now we have blocked the 4th Reich with Brexit. Seeing the Eu flag is offensive

[@trondmm]

If you look closer, there are actually quite a few non-UK flags in the hall.

[@JimWalsh-rl5dj]

And if you look closely most of the non-UK flags are Commonwealth flags but I would ask, why would Europeans come to a celelbration of being British? We fought off the Europeans for 800 years and more and won and now, we have Brexit. The flame of Trafalgar still burns bright in the UK

[@stefannegler2314]

Why they aired a german ballad on the last night of the proms? I thougt it´s only british?

[@JimWalsh-rl5dj]

What Heinie ballad?

[@JimWalsh-rl5dj]

Mattias, oh we are not Europeans, we are British. The only screwing is the Germans screwing everyone, juust like they have always done. And now what Germany has achieved, is exactly what Hitler wanted, he would be proud. We British however, dislike you Eupropeans intensly that is why we have resisted and defeated Europe for 900 years! We will be returning to our natural family, the Commonwealth and leaving the stupid and greedy Europe to itself. We are not now nor ever have been a part of Europe

[@jctothel]

A sea of bobbing Brexit voters

[@lauramacgillefhinnein5106]

Such a 'cupid stunt' comment. The Proms is a celebration of music & people come from all over to participate. Did you fail to notice all the different flags?? I guess that little fact didn't suit your bias, eh?

[@jctothel]

@@lauramacgillefhinnein5106 ‘Cupid stunt’ 😂 Did you have fun trolling everyone in the comments of this video who don’t suit YOUR bias?
