Is somebody saying Mel B?
00:11
Is he on here?
00:13
Mel B! Mel B! Mel B! Mel B!
00:23
Mel B! Mel B! Mel B! Mel B! Mel B!
00:33
Hello you all!
00:40
We are in Blackpool this Friday, are you all good?
00:46
Now, I'm always thinking that you used to work in Blackpool.
00:50
I used to be a dancer in Blackpool.
00:52
My first ever proper job was at the Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
00:55
I loved the Blackpool Pleasure Beach!
00:58
Are you kidding?
01:00
And as a kid, you used to come here from Leeds, over Blackpool to Seaside.
01:03
I used to come every year with my mum and dad and my sister
01:07
to watch the lights being turned on.
01:10
And this year I'm doing it!
01:14
And I told you, from one artist to another,
01:17
you know, you stand in there and you're watching Ella Henderson do Ghost.
01:20
And I can see you, your eyes are putting up.
01:23
And my favourite song, How Good Was Ella Henderson?
01:26
Oh my God!
01:29
So, what are you looking for Mel?
01:32
Well, Spice Girls switched on the London lights
01:35
and now Mel B's Scary Spice is switching on the Dublin lights!
01:42
This switch actually goes to control the lights.
01:45
So there are many agents who switch that switch
01:48
that hold all of the theatre's lights up.
01:51
I won't mess it up, I promise you all.
01:53
I know we've all been waiting for a long time for this.
01:56
Me too!
01:57
This switch went back to the 1930s.
02:00
Into the 90s?
02:02
Yes.
02:03
We'll have to be careful.
02:04
Would you like to take a place Mel?
02:06
This is old military, this.
02:08
You know it Mel.
02:09
I think it's time to do it.
02:12
Have a look over at Blackpool Tower.
02:15
We have the countdown with us.
02:17
We raise the countdown everyone as loud as you can.
02:20
And we raise it down from 10.
02:22
Follow the tower.
02:24
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
02:33
