"Over the Rainbow" | Andrew Lloyd Webber and Dorothys reunite for show's 10th anniversary

[@katieminns9778]

I loved how Sophie Evans played Dorothy in the West End and then ended up playing Glinda in Wicked. She melted the green witch and then she became her best friend 💖

[@musicaltheatrefan2k226]

I wish Danielle gets a chance as Elphaba (because her range is similar to one of Danielle’s other roles, Eponine)

[@Darkangel-A-c8z]

Yeah, I think Danielle is a mezzo soprano

[@romo4161]

Please bring back shows like over the rainbow after lockdown!!

[@williamfairchild7439]

Over The Rainbow is available to watch on KZbin

YES

[@clararose7372]

Yessss !!! They were the best shows to watch !!

[@4653jenna]

this time let Jessica win show

[@graym642]

Love that they are all wearing their original colours!

[@graym642]

@Callum Hughes-Davies yes true but she had the red lipstick!

[@Heeyitsmika]

could i ask what that means

[@graym642]

@@Heeyitsmika in the original show they all had a "Dorothy dress" in a unique colour to tell them apart and would usually wear outfits in variations of that shade in their performances each week. In this video they are wearing their same signature colours!

[@ashleybarnard-brown4247]

GET THIS BACK ON TELLY!!! It's what the nation needs right now!

[@williamfairchild7439]

I agree on that

[@roseschocolate1991]

Another thing the BBC should do to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Over The Rainbow is a ‘Where are they now’ type programme. They did one after I’d do anything, you know the search for Nancy they also did. & it showed up to date like career info/ back stages stuff etc from all the contestants who were in How Do you solve a problem like Maria, to Any Dream Will Do, and then I’d Do Anything. Was really interesting, so could do the same with all the 11 finalists of Over The Rainbow. I’m sure I’m not the only one who would watch a programme like that. Graham Norton would obviously have to be the host/commentator or whatever you call it like he did the last time.

[@Mason879_commander_bacon]

I wish that Stephanie Davis would go into musical theatre. What a voice. Danielle was the clear winner from day 1 🥰

[@TheSkye077]

Sophie was wearing a moon necklace, which is apt because of the moon that a lot of the Dorothy’s sat on when they left. Being 2nd meant she didn’t get the same chance to sing the song on the moon, as the focus went on Danielle (who is amazing too). Well done to all!

[@KM-rs5dq]

Emilie proving that she CAN sing. I loved this! X

[@timsamanthony]

She was so bad in the show but now she sounds great

[@KM-rs5dq]

@@timsamanthony she's improved massively but was given songs that didnt suit her voice on the show. She's a soprano and was given songs too low for her. Xxx

[@DianaMAP]

OMG 😱 the girls 😭 I wanna cry. They look soo good and mature now. Besides, their voices have improved sooo much. I can't believe it's been 10 years since then! 🥰 😍

[@timsamanthony]

Emilie has improved greatly since the show, she sounds great

[@happyexpat3744]

How lovely..not just the song and how they did it..but to see 10 years later, how they have matured and hear that they have worked on their voices since the end of that series. Especially Danielle, Sophie and Lauren (who was always good). Also, I cannot remember her name, the youngest of them....how beautiful she is, now. having left that awkward 16 yo she was. Thank you, ladies.

@@kimberley27 So sorry.

[@sometime.somewhere]

Wow, as for many others, lots of fond memories of this show and every now and then I watch some of the performances. Would love another musical theatre talent show like this to come out, this was some of my favourite tv ever! Ten years!

[@williamfairchild7439]

Yeah I agree for another musical theatre TV talent show

[@williamfairchild7439]

10 years since Over The Rainbow on BBC One from Friday 26th March to Saturday 22nd May 2010 and all of the episodes are available to watch now on KZbin (kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHvVlJ-qfM-Nf5I)

[@katieatwellx]

I love how they’re all wearing their colours in some way from the show. All of their voices have changed they all sound incredible💞

[@sampatterson3909]

This song should never be performed without the lovely intro verse. So glad it is included here. Thank, Sir and ladies.

[@jonnylegoo]

Seen Danielle Live before at The Edinburgh Fringe and was absolutely incredible. All these women deserve a medal

[@milliejay1451]

I remember watching this show as a little girl and wishing I was old enough to audition

[@hannahglazier5764]

can't believe that was 10yrs ago I saw danielle hope as dorothy alongside Michael Crawford amazing nice to see the show pathed the way for many of the girls starring in the west end

[@pop-uptheatre7663]

WE NEED ANOTHER SHOW LIKE THIS!! It was the best! Reality TV became so fake and contrived, these shows were amazing, full of real talent and the judges, Andrew and Graham were fantastic!!! MAKE IT HAPPEN ❤️🥰🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@anniespencer7879]

I don't know about that! I watched Any Dream Will Do and became very fond of Lee Mead. The wretched man has cost me a small fortune in theatre tickets, train and hotel money ever since. Only joking - here's to more years when this Lockdown is over, Lee!

[@williamfairchild7439]

Yeah I agree for another musical theatre TV talent show

[@danielmoynan6561]

So true. An imaginary one for nbc to cast Dewey in school of rock on Broadway keeps playing in my mind actually.

[@charlottecoster6228]

LOVE THAT!! I was such a huge fan of the show and love how so many of them have gone on to have such great careers in musical theatre. I have seen Sophie in wizard of oz and wicked, Danielle in Les mis and grease and Joseph, Lauren in bend it like beckham and Bronte in Oklahoma! All absolutely fantastic!!

[@williamfairchild7439]

I have seen Sophie in Wizard of Oz

[@rustysdarling]

Lauren was amazing in bend it, wasn't she? I adored her! Miss that show so much x

[@KuroMokoChan]

I'm crying! I was just relistening to the old videos of Over the Rainbow! It feels so good to hear them again. Sophie was always my favourite but I'm glad that Danielle won :)

[@charlesramseysmith985]

This is amazing! How did I miss this! Would love to see one with the Marias, Nancy's and Josephs. Andrew LLoyd Webber if your seeing this??? We need it for this lockdown!!!

[@rogerpurkiss6696]

This was such a tonic. I know some of the Dorothy's now and they are all wonderful human beings as well as being very talented. What a show that was.

[@suevisionata]

Hi..Im from Mumbai India. On Mothers day in May my son told me to sing anything. He plays the keyboard. I knew this song Somewhere over the rainbow. Ive been humming/ singing this song over the years mostly to myself never public .My son recorded it & put on utube with a video. Im so happy this song has come back. Its marvelous how God works. God bless.

[@sregors]

This is exactly what 2020 needed. Thank you Dorothys

[@williamwood4629]

I want them to do another programme like this again

[@lafayette1982]

Love love love this! If I was a millionaire I’d create a show for each of them where they could all have a leading lady part and just spend my evenings going to all the different shows. How amazing would that be! So hope they do many more shows like this and we follow the journey to find a someone. In the meantime can they pretty please put them all on Netflix? We need beautiful shows to watch.

[@ladyearin]

I looooved the show, I was rooting for the girls and I'm not even British or near around the west end or uk in general. Musicals are my dream, and this show has a special place in my heart. I wish all 11 of you all the best not only for your career but for your lives❤️

This has made my day! I lived this show and watched it with my wee boy who was only 3 at the time. We said if Danielle won we would travel down to London and watch her. She did and we did! Its fab that so many of these talented women are having successful careers in musical theatre. I love this performance and arrangement. You can hear how much their voices have matured.

[@krob2327]
