Our congratulations to BBC2's Gareth Malone whose sterling, efforts to get teenage boys to sing strikes resonant chords in the hearts of those who have also tried... and terror into the hearts of those who have not.

The Choir: Boys don't sing is a reality TV documentary which charts the journey of a lone ranger choirmaster and his attempt to cajole, motivate and train a 100 strong chorus of mainly sporty boys to a standard fit to perform at the Royal Albert Hall.
