Britain’s Got Talent

I agree Patricia. And as for the mother and daughter duo, I can't believe that they learnt a new song in 15 minutes. The mother said she'd got the lyrics written on the back of her hand but on their first attempt you could clearly see writing on the palm of her hand. I thought the youth orchestra deserved the golden buzzer.

I agree. They played on people’s sympathy because the mother had been diagnosed with cancer, but they were crap singers.

Yes, she was bad but got the sympathy vote yet again. You don’t have to be talented on this show but if you have a weepy story to tell you will get through.

At least Hughie Green had reasonable acts on and didn’t put on a false shocked look !

Hello Pattricia.

Hughie Green was too canny to be surprised.

You appeared on his show only after signing up for him to be your Manager.

X Factor - BGT - The Voice etc etc are all tarred with the same brush as far as I can see.

Especially 'the Voice'  send the best ones off, would probably be a better title for the programme.

I SAY -

TURN THEM ALL OFF & FIND A COPY OF BEN ELTON'S 

'CHART THROB' 

Spend the hour reading this Mickey take of the whole talent show industry,

Sounds a good read.  I like Ben Elton.

The show was on again last night and is very stage managed. Always puts a children’s choir on first. Then a  doggy act.  Then an average comedian. A silly elderly woman who can’t sing but is endearing so gets voted through. Then a man dressed as a crab or lobster who can’t sing as soon as he opens his mouth and they all buzz at. Still enjoyable though but all arranged beforehand by Simon.

Good entertainment tonight but  Simon looks at them as though he’s seeing them for the first time. Every act will be placed in a certain order. The good acts first to attract the viewers, then a few rubbish ones that they can all press their buzzers at, then an old age pensioner who surprises us with her drumming, finishing with a blind girl who’s voice is average but gets voted through .
