Om exact 1.00 uur was het concert in Londen afgelopen.

Hoogtepunten: U2, Madonna, Pink Floyd en Sir Paul McCartney. En ook het moment dat het meisje uit het aangrijpende filmpje in 1985 als haast volwassen vrouw op het podium komt. Kippenvel. En niet te vergeten de BBC, die met geweldige beelden (en in breedbeeld) het hele concert in Hyde Park en gedeelten van andere steden heeft laten zien. Presentator Jonathan Ross is cool!
