On Saturday 16 November, two major UK TV shows will simultaneously feature the first use of the new DiGiCo D5 Live on European television, with a brace of prime time shows starring Robbie Williams and the Songs of Bond.

BBC One screens the Robbie Williams Show at 21.00 - the star’s first major TV special, filmed at Pinewood Studios last week. Singing his favourite songs, Williams performs everything from swing to chart-topping hits and his new single. Dave Bracey mixed the audience sound on Sound Hire’s D5 Live with Britannia Row Productions supplying a V-Dosc PA and monitors.

Over on ITV1 at 21.15, Russell Watson presents Songs of Bond, a showcase of favourite Bond theme songs from the past 40 years, with performances from an array of stars including Lulu, Atomic Kitten, Samantha Mumba, Diana Krall and Marti Pellow, and backing music from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Sound Hire again provided the D5 Live with Stewart Chaney and Plus Four Audio in charge of the live sound. DiGiCo’s Dave Webster told us: "To make our TV debut on both major UK channels at the same is a fantastic feat only two months after we launched the console!"
