X Factor back this weekend - time to see if the new judges will be a hit or a miss!

[SESthebrave]

Can't believe it's back already but I can't wait to see what the new judges are like! Anyone else?

That Lenny Henry quip still has the power to reduce me to tears of mirth. Ooh, back with my girls- I love this time of year!

Oooh oooh and "Stick around we might turn you set of five short, cute and none threatening boys into a band of your own"...

....or was that last year?

Of course, this year there are 3 new judges to create their own crap catch phrases.

I will miss Dannii- she was the only sensible one last year, imo. Even Simon went soft on some of the crapper acts.

Lord only knows why they kept Louis (but the trip to judges houses is always cheap for his group, maybe that is why)

LeBof - why the Oooh La La?

Le Boffles, I am glad you are here. Either you're namechanging like a demon or you're not around much these days? . Has the Twatter claimed you?

I saw a thread full of gorgeous French words, and wanted to pay tribute. Plus I like shrugging and going "hawhawhawheehawheehaw".

I can't wait for the live shows- last years themes were soo very bad (musical hero- ooh, yes that will be Bruno Mars the). i want to see death metal, Dylan week, and proper cheesy Christmas hits.

:o at Wand Erection

I was on hold last week, Sue, and I bought a mind-improving kindle! I very impressed by your telly ban, btw.

I loved the Queen themed one though, especially when Brian May and Roger Taylor turned up. Bet they can't pull off anyone good this year :(

roar at Dylan week. In fact, a melancholic whining week would be good. Jeff Buckley, Cohen, Dylan.........
I think a Songs from Cbeebies week.

Gah- hols, not hold. But you can be on hold for a week to Virgin Media- it has happened before.

is anyone else sat going 'hawhawhawheehawheehaw' and twirling imaginary moustache- or just me?

Is mini Raah still eating DVD player or has she been sent to bed so you can watch X Factor and drink wine?

Hah, telly is plugged back in today. DD weakened. It's off during the week though, I have a new job and lots of work to do.
Is the kindle good? Are you Improving Your Wordpower?

PMSL at 'Songs from Cbeebies' week.

And yes it's just you

I liked Aiden last year - then he turned out to be shit .... Which was a shame.

Mini Raahh is on her way to bed- clutching the Super mario wii steering wheel. She is a tad dusty....(must hoover under the telly tomorrow)

Not really, Sue. But I am considering becoming a lesbian after a glut of Sarah Waters books.

I love XF threads, ten conversations cross posting then a whole page of

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Point proved

I would like to be a 1940s lesbian, slicked back hair and tweed. If you do turn, give me a shout and I'll dig out the brogues .

Totally agree about Louis being good for bingo. Wouldn't be the same without him!

Just off to dish up dinner and a large glass of wine in time for 8pm - back soon!

Indeed Sue!
