Donna, I was at Leeds Castle too! I thought he was great and it was a really professional show! I went to the Royal Variety Show in Edinburgh last year where Donny sang with his brothers and they got a standing ovation. All the Osmonds except Donny were on our plane to Edinburgh and at the airport they were brilliant with the fans. I said to my kids who were with us that that showed real stardom, still being nice to the people who wanted to see them. Also had Rachel Stevens on our plane and Amanda Holden but they were far too important to be friendly......

Not just Donny in the top 40 this week!! Also Brian Wilson (beach boys), Mark Knofler (Dire Straits) and Paul McCartney!! Think the radio 2 listeners have been spending their pennies in the record shops this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!Steph ;-)) (still listening to Radio 1!)

Good for Donny, and to think my old Dad said back in the 70's "The pop stars nowadays are not like Perry Como and Frank Sinatra,who've stood the test of time. In thirty years time no-one'll know who Donny Osmond is" I think he got that one wrong! LOL Christine

As a teenager I quite liked the Osmonds but was more a Jackson 5 fan. Now they've all grown up I know who I'd rather have! Donny has just grown better looking and has a great personality to match. No comment on Michael Jackson! Jane
