Hand Held Audio were asked to provide the radio microphones for all the artists and also presenters Elizabeth Hurley and Denis Leary. Most of the soundtracks consisted of live vocal to playback so a large in-ear monitor requirement added to the complexity of the wireless system.RF expert John 'Freddo' Fredericks, who was on site to oversee operations, said: "It was a great show. There was a really good atmosphere - egos seemed to take a back seat and everything ran smoothly. I'd recommend watching the broadcast on Channel 4 this Sunday to anyone."
Among the artists present were some of Hand Held's regular customers - Robbie Williams (singing for Versace), Blue (for Dolce & Gabbana), Skin (for Gucci) and Björk (for Alexander McQueen).
