Sweet Jesus - this might be the most cringey thing I've ever seen - I'm utterly embarrassed for everyone involved in this shitstorm Blush

It really is shite isn't it? The Riff-Offs are awful - I'm cringing for all of them!!!!

TJH1 · 17/06/2017 20:29

Lol, I was looking for someone to start this thread, I can't turnover though!!! I'm too sexy on now,proper cringe!

Dillite2 · 17/06/2017 20:32

Those women in black look like they are about to shit themselves from all the stress!

Sparklingbrook · 17/06/2017 20:32

I love GM but I can't watch the awful singing.

hazeyjane · 17/06/2017 20:32

Just posted on the other thread. We are loving it.

Dd2 has renamed The Riff Off, The Fart Off. Dh is hiding under a pillow. It's fucking awesome!

Sirzy · 17/06/2017 20:33

It's awful.

I thought the groups would at least be acepella groups

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:34

Is 5 people a choir? I don't think so.

SleepingBooty · 17/06/2017 20:35

Embarrassingly I'm enjoying it. I can't bear XFactor but I do love a harmony.

Moanyoldcow · 17/06/2017 20:35

They make me feel physically unwell.

Those horrific dance moves need to stop too.

I think it's the dance moves that make it all extra cringy. I honestly always thought that this whole choir sing off battling only happened in movies. In American movies.

Dillite2 · 17/06/2017 20:39

So, how many teenagers are there tonight wanting to be wiped off the face of the earth because their lives are literally ruined.

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:39

Dance moves? I thought a collective nervous twitch.

Dillite2 · 17/06/2017 20:39

*?

Is this what happens when menopause hits?

TJH1 · 17/06/2017 20:41

Purple rain was alright! God help me, I am gripped😮

LIZS · 17/06/2017 20:42

Was passingly interested as usually like GM programmes and one of the groups was localish. But format far too protracted.

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:43

I saw a reality TV thing on acapella groups at American colleges and apparently they actually do have sing offs, or "acabattles". Some of them took it insanely seriously. I mean, I sing in a choir myself, but I have come close to falling asleep at a slow rehearsal.

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:46

Does anyone else think Will Young has come as the male lead from The Princess Bride? Like he thought it was Book Day and cheated slightly.

Dillite2 · 17/06/2017 20:46

What the hell is Will wearing? Looks like a shredded dressing gown.

Dillite2 · 17/06/2017 20:50

What's happening here? I skipped the bit explaining why there were 3 groups here.

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:55

I came in after the start but I think these three won their sing offs.

Will' cummerbund has come off and he's wearing it as a scarf.

KingLooieCatz · 17/06/2017 20:57

Oh good grief! The knicker bockers.

I am so watching this next week. My Saturday nights need crappy tv and this will fill the void.

Vintageproblem · 17/06/2017 23:10

I thought the idea was voices only. Why have the got instruments?

MelanieCheeks · 17/06/2017 23:27

Sorry, I loved it! Yeah it's obviously scripted and rehearsed - it wouldnt work otherwise. But lovely to see some real talent and frienship singing/performing.

It's a no from me on Will's outfit.
