For some reason, I began watching the BBC2's Young Musician 2010 earlier this evening. Splendid programme, well worth watching on the i-player.

All of the kids should have won, though Lucy the percussionist was my favourite. What really impressed me was that these were ordinary teenagers with extraordinary talents. All of them were nice guys, of whom their parents should be proud.

Uplifting. Enough to restore my faith in Britain's youth.
