I am providing the sound system, loudspeakers all over the place
Play list to include Crown Imperial by William Walton
and lots of Gilbert and Sullivan (not Gilbert O'Sullivan!)
especially HMS Pinafore
Some Handel to get you onto the dance floor
Then a quick burst of Tina Turner

God Save the Queen - Sex Pistols (got to be on the list, no?)
Jerusalem - for WI lovers everywhere, or should I say lovers of the WI everywhere.
Vaughan Williams Variations on a theme by Thomas Tallis - prize for the most boring title of a spiritually and emotionally uplifting piece of Englishness......
anyone other suggestions?

Coronation Scot - original 1938 version
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI9R3JEr7ys
later version with intro by the composer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyJi0...eature=related
and yes it is the theme for Paul Temple
regretfully I will not be able to get the tracks laid in time to bring out the model of the Coronation Scot for rides around the estate.
but my projector will be putting out visuals on all these along with
WH Auden's Mail Train
