Thanks to Duncan on goodies-l for passing this along.

The 16 July BBC Proms concert was a performance of HMS Pinafore,
at the Royal Albert Hall - with a linking narration provided by Tim!

According to Duncan, Tim sat on the stage in a large leather armchair and "popped up between songs to explain the (minimal!) plot and chuck in some
contemporary topical jokes."

The broadcast will be repeated on Radio 3 on Tuesday 19th July at 2pm,  and will be on BBC 1 TV at some currently undetermined point.  It is available on Radio 3's Listen Again service at http://www.bbc.co.uk/proms/listen/ thorugh the end of the week.
