Bringing the school assembly to BBC Breakfast! FULL FEATURE

It was pretty surreal to be asked to go on BBC Breakfast this week. I’m very glad I managed to sing Who Put the Colours in the Rainbow on national TV 🤣🌈 here's the full feature!

Oh my gosh! This brought so much joy and nostalgia!!!! I grew up 6800 miles away in Singapore but I remember that for 10 years of assembly/chapel times, I sang many of these songs. Doing my part now and passing it down! My kids and I sing "All things bright and beautiful" and "Jerusalem" on our long trips down the M1.

Oh that’s fantastic! Did you sing those songs in Singapore?

[@vinkwan87]

@@JamesBPartridge Yes I sang them in Singapore! I guess many of the Christian/Catholic schools started by the British in colonial times retained the culture. Just pleasantly surprised that I can share this collective experience with my children now that we are in Britain.

Too old, presenters? Pretty sure that was written in the 70s. 😂

[@JamesBPartridge]

Yep 1978 first published I believe!

Wow the presenter didn’t like the name of Jesus at all.
