What do you guys think will win?
i loved Kate + Gin the dog, who got though the first semi final, my dog does the same sort of stunts only bites the hell out of my ankles.
Charles Darwin to conquer the World
May 29, 2008 at 21:21 #165899Gin was good but there was something unnerving about Kate.
I liked the pervy magicians the other night and their twin brother and sister who did the ‘quick change’ act tonight.
But, the girl who sang tonight should win it if it is based on talent as she has a phenomenal voice – a voice in a million as S.Cowell pointed out.
June 1, 2008 at 17:30 #166170kate and Gin the dog should have won IMO. If you are to meaure talent as the ability to do something that not many can do then the dog had more than the rest of competition put together.
The competition overall was a joke though. I am absolutely convinced that farrel smith had already signed a deal with cowell before she even set foot on the audition stage (there was something about the way she and cowell looked when she walked on).
Overall though the competion is voted for by children and hence the three at the final. Am glad signature didnt win as being able to do a small fraction of michael jacksons act, fished off with a not so great "splits" is hardly a talent.
Also, why didnt the guy who played the saw make it into the semis as he was definitely one of the best auditions IMO, far better than that tracy bloke and the fat dancing bird. An absolute mockery for me, but no doubt cowelll has already signed the BOND rip off Escala, Farell Smith and the fat bullied choir boy (already forgotten his name), and I dont doubt for a second that they will make a lot of money from those respective markets.
As for those dance acts, if any of them went for proper comps like the x games etc, they would get laughed off. Type break dancing into you tube and there are actually some people on there with talent.
The only two original and talented acts for me were Kate and Gin and the Saw bloke.
The program should be called britain thinks it has talent.
June 1, 2008 at 18:50 #166178How about this .
Britains got yet another show which involves happy TV hosts sending talentless people in front of a panel of three judges,One a smug git,One who is a bit of totty and one who has no business being their in the first place and after hearing the usuall sob story of being bullied as a kid or being the only child from a single mum who is either an alchy,druggie or slag gets the sympathy vote and goes through to a live final and after each person gets voted off they sell their stories to the papers about the incredible journey they have been on,meanwhile the winner gets 15 mins of fame and ends up doing their pathetic act in a hoilday camp at Blackpool or Bognor,then ending up on ITVs new show called "What happened to those on Britains Got Talent"

God I know. I most definitely would no go the West End to see old letter-box mouth on stage. I reckon she’ll do the show for a few weeks and then Jessie or Rachel will take over.
June 4, 2008 at 07:46 #166297Mrs Column and I caught the final on on-demand the other night, and whilst the result itself is certainly the wrong one, we think quite a bit of good may come out of it.
Think about it. Thingy Whatsit is now tied to the Oliver gig for the foreseeable future. Jessie, on the other hand, will already have been inundated with offers from promoters, musical directors, etc. who won’t be able to believe their luck that the biggest talent in the competition is still up for grabs immediately after it. Within those offers, it’s not entirely unreasonable to assume that there will be one or two there that may actually suit or interest Jessie more than the role of Nancy ever would have done.
That’s one nasty perm she’s got, though. To quote one of our favourite ever Dilbert lines; “The 1980s are on the phone! They want their hair back!”

and Andrew
but I didn’t like Farrel
I think it’s nice seeing the kids up on stage like that – better than the ones roaming the streets with sharp metal obejcts in every pocket
