Sir Paul McCartney was the last person on screen as he said: "Hello to the people of Manchester."
"Have a great day of music there. I want to send my love and support from me and the boys to all of you there and to Ariana grande for organising this.
He continued: "Tonight Manchester is in the heart of the world. All my love, from me and the boys."

He added: "As a father it’s a day we will never forget. Tonight is about remembering those who suffered so much on that night but also celebrating the spirit of this great city, it’s a place we all love."
