Nicola Roberts surprised me, she can really sing. Katherine Jenkins was told to tone the Opera down so that she would not be easily guessed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The entire concept is horrendous without seeing it It was 'on in the background' here for the first couple of shows. Somehow, though, I got hooked. Fucking terrible situation but, well, it was rather good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was still watching talent shows when that one was on. IIRC she was one of the better ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If she had come on to sing, out of costume, she would have just been 'the ginger bird tagged onto that girl group'. In disguise we heard her and saw her perform, not knowing for sure who she was. She is very good, unless you are some sort of anti ginge merchant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,476 Posted February 15, 2020 Yeah, I genuinely put it on 5 Saturdays ago because everyone was talking about it and felt like a laugh. 30 mins later, "Who is that fucking hedgehog????" I'd genuinely not heard of Jason Manford before. At least Mrs msc was equally wrong on that one. She thought it was Alexander Armstrong! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlike a certain other contestant who was chosen. I recall there was a black girl who was also very good who was eliminated Can't remember her name though.

Boudicca 702 Posted February 17, 2020 Oh, I thought it was missing a couple of things. I've just been told about the car chase and hospitalisation. Okay that's the full set then. Still not exactly my fault, not really. I wasn't even there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted February 17, 2020 Exactly. We were both blamelessly diligently working on our DDP entries, right? What's that you say, officer? Is just a list of folk we want dead is all, nothing to see here. ** SC actually took one through American airport security. I thought he'd be shot for it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted February 27, 2020 This week just gets better and better. Following the death of my Auntie and my wife's Auntie. I have just had a text from my brother who has had a heart attack. However he didn't sign his text and I had not updated all my contacts to my new phone so I was desperately searching through my messages to find out who was telling me they had had a heart attack. He is under 60 and we thought in reasonable health. He is not concerned at the moment but it is a bit of a shock as I am in Madrid at the moment. On my way home though. 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
