If X-Factor and Strictly are both shown live, how is it possible that he appeared on SCD and then on X-Factor about an hour later (and then back to SCD for the recording of tomorrow night's results show)????

They often pre-record the 'star talent' performances on X Factor and play them as 'live'

Yes, but he appeared as one of the 'duets' with one of the finalists so that must have been live...unless Take That's performance on SCD was not live....

Ah intersting (sorry, not watched either this evening)

Maybe the Strictly one was a pre record...

Yes, we wondered the same thing. I smell a rat.

And did anyone spot the bizarre punching dance Gary barlow was doing...?

"Take That meanwhile closed the show with a live performance of their recent hit single The Flood - before Robbie Williams raced away from the studio to perform She's The One on The X Factor live final with One Direction."

Or there are TWO ROBBIES.

There is the affable grinning one and the mad stary-eyed loon one. Until the day of your booking, you don't know which you are going to get.

TragicallyHip · 11/12/2010 23:52

I think the studio's are not too far from each other so driving would not take that long.

Or Take That recorded earlier..

LOL UQD!

gregssausageroll · 12/12/2010 08:51

They are both filmed in London so very dooable on a motorbike or quick car. They were on Strictly at 6.50 pm and wasn't on x factor until 8.15 so plenty of time.

Scream
(sorry - I'm excited!) :D

gregssausageroll · 12/12/2010 10:03

Sorry QOD they are not. Its Strictly they are on which was pre-recorded last night at the results show.

gregssausageroll · 12/12/2010 10:05

QOD - I stand corrected! Apparently they are!

Riddo · 12/12/2010 11:06

I went to the halloween Strictly and Alice Cooper was the first thing to be recorded at 5pm even though he was part of the Sunday results show.

QOD · 12/12/2010 13:20

It looked live though as they were in the background during the link to the next bit

QOD · 12/12/2010 19:40

They did it again!

Ladyface · 12/12/2010 21:37

It is just a short trip down the A40 from the BBC studios at White City to where the X Factor is at Wembley.

SleepingLion · 12/12/2010 21:41

It had to be a REALLY short trip - about six minutes between the two performances tonight!

DanceInTheDark · 12/12/2010 21:42

Quick trip down the road, they will have already sound checked and make up will have done by Strictly team.

HowardsLongLostLove · 12/12/2010 21:58

Strictly was filmed last night

SlartyBartFast · 12/12/2010 22:00
