''Adele at the BBC'' is a television special featuring British singer and songwriter Adele, hosted by Graham Norton for BBC One, and which was recorded at The London Studios, London, United Kingdom on 2 November 2015. The programme featured Adele and her live band performing songs from her repertoire and third studio album ''25'' (2015), as well as other songs from her other two albums, alongside Adele being interviewed by Graham Norton. The show featured the first public performance of her single "Hello" and two other tracks from her album ''25'', and her first television appearance since the 85th Academy Awards (2013). It also featured sketch sections, where Adele interacted with her fans, including a group of Adele impersonators. The show was broadcast on Friday 20 November on BBC One from 20:30 – 21:35 GMT, the same day that her new album ''25'' was released. ==Background== Following the release of ''21'' (2011), Adele was considering quitting the music industry all together, stating she thought it was better to "go out on a high". However, in early 2012 she announced she was simply taking a hiatus from music in order to "take time and live a little bit".〔Kaufman, Gil (3 April 2012) ("Adele To Release New Single This Year" ). MTV. Retrieved 19 October 2012〕 Her hiatus from music came to an end after the birth of her first child in October 2012, with Adele stating her son inspired her to start recording music again in order for him to "know what I do". In early October Adele released a letter to her fans through social media addressing the album, in which she confirmed that the album would be titled ''25''. Adele confirmed that ''25'' would be released on 20 November 2015, and revealed its cover simultaneously on Facebook and Twitter. On October 2, 2015 numerous music journalists began reporting that it was suspected that Adele had been offered a one-hour TV special on the BBC, however these reports were not confirmed. On 27 October, following the reports BBC One announced plans for ''Adele at the BBC'', a one-hour special presented by Graham Norton in which he will talk to Adele about her new album. The show was recorded before a live audience on 2 November and was transmitted on BBC One on 20 November 2015.〔〔 Tickets for the live show, which were free, were made available through a lottery style system and were requested by the public. The show marks the first live performances by Adele of three songs from the album ''25'': "Hello", "When We Were Young" and "A Million Years Ago". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adele at the BBC」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
