New thread, mainly to make sure no-one misses the new timeGrin

And it finishes at a very respectable 9.20pm.

Which is lovely. Grin.

Will Simon have another hissy fit? Will Megan sing an original song?

Will Vinnie be all cheeky chappy? Has Jenny run out of Eurovision songs to sing?


Can I even be bothered with the groups?

Copied from other thread, this is who is left.


Megan McKenna.
Vinnie Jones,
Jenny Ryan.
V5
Max & Harvey
Try Star

See y'all later. I have Cheeselets and Twiglets. It's officially nearly Christmas. Wine.

I will also be here. Who would have thought that we will only need 2 xfactor threads? Long gone are the days when there was one every Saturday

Yeah...it's had its day really. I think I've watched every series from the very start. I remember really not wanting Steve Brookstein to win.😂

I'll be here! Not impressed with the clash with strictly though 🙈

Vinnies acapella performance last week reminded me of being at a family party when your uncle gets pissed and starts singing whilst everyone has to shush and sway along Grin

It's been dreadful, I think this is the end if xfactor.

dillite that's true, it's just not grabbed me, this series.

In X Factor related news, I have discovered what Matt Terry is up to. He is performing the Grinch who stole Christmas- the musical- at the Lowry theatre near me. Grin. Spotted the posters on a trip to the town centre.

Don't think he is the Grinch Grin. (That's possibly Griff Rhys Jones).

We also have the annual lights switch on at our local centre.

Starring none other than Toploader. A host of 'lost in the first round of auditions of X Factor' type people- and some bloke from Black Lace.

Don't all rush here at once.

Mammy that is is an excellent description of Vinnie's performance.

I hope he fakes a sore throat, and doesn't perform. I think Simon was an arse, saying he had to.

Thank you @Raahh ! In a month I get to experience similar at my Nanas 95th birthday celebration!

Great when you're pissed, in the cold light of day slightly cringey... especially the Irish accent in there!

Panto pays quite well so I wouldn't be judging any never been for doing them. Those Christmas presents don't buy themselves.

True about the 'panto gig' ! I guess it all helps with the bills and publicity etc.
I haven't been to one in years!

80s of Agadoo and Superman fame , indeed Grin

I can still do the actions to Superman. Thanks to a holiday in Majorca in 1983. It was popular with the hotel reps Grin

Superman was good but not as good as ' agg a doo' ! That was a classic novelty song !

Scandal! Dene Michael wasn't even an original member of Black Lace Shock.

And was jailed in 2016 for 6 months for benefit fraud- more Shock.

Well I never Grin.

What's with the sudden themed night?

Raahh · 23/11/2019 19:42

Oh here we go- we have a THEME!

Will Megan have written an 'orignal' sappy movie 'style' song?

Or actually stick to the them and do a cover?
