Tim Minchin performs 'Seeing You' from Groundhog Day at the 20th South Bank Sky Arts Awards
Watch Tim Minchin performing ‘Seeing You’ from Groundhog Day at the 20th South Bank Sky Arts Awards at Londons Savoy Hotel.
Groundhog Day is the story of Phil Connors (Andy Karl), a cynical Pittsburgh TV weatherman who is sent to cover the annual Groundhog Day event in the isolated small town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, when he finds himself caught in a time loop, forced to repeat the same day again and again and again. As each day plays out exactly the same as before Phil becomes increasingly despondent, but is there a lesson to be learnt through his experiences, will he ever unlock the secret and break the cycle?
Tim was joined on stage by some of the cast and musicians from Groundhog Day:
Backing singers: Jack Shalloo, Carolyn Maitland, Georgina Hagen and Kieran Jae.
Musicians: Fiona Leggat, Justin Pearson, Rutledge Turnlund, Charlie Brown, Amy May and Andy McGlasson.
The arrangement is by Chris Nightingale.
