Tim Minchin is to be Judas. Chris MOYLES is to be Herod (does he die? I do hope so) and Lord ALW, the grinning gargoyle himself, will be choosing Jesus every Saturday night on ITV.

NEWLY SKINNY DAWN FRENCH AND DANCE BOT JASON DONOVAN ARE JUDGING!

this Saturday 7.25

Who is in then?

:) It's like the Mother-Ship calling me home :)

LeB0F · 02/07/2012 09:57

My goodness, I'm there!

Pinot · 02/07/2012 09:58

Ahhhhhhhhhh.

Mother-Ship, I am here

LeB0F · 02/07/2012 09:58

Will Peter Andre be Jesus?

Hullygully · 02/07/2012 10:03

What the hell is it?

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:03

It will be ALL THE FLAVOUR OF FABULOUS. Dawn French. Imagine. And ALW grimacing at some plasterer from Nottingham murdering his choons.

PA would LOVE to be Jesus, wouldn't he? Such a shame he cannot sing. Or dance. Or act. Or he'd be brilliant.

Hully, it is the same as the Josephs and the Dorothys and the Marias and the Nancys only on ITV so more lights and deep voiceovers and more fillers. And sadly, no Graham.

But still. YOU COULD STILL BE JESUS

but what is this?

I v much want to join in and have some light relief (ooo missus) after the ol ding dongs, but I am IN THE DARK

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:10

OK. That square thing in the corner of the room that glows and talks? Tellybox.

Every Saturday night around this time for the past few years, Sir Andrew Lloyd Webbedfeet has been a judge on a fixed talent show to 'find' a star for his musicals. Dorothy = Oz, Nancy = Oliver, Joseph - Dreamcoat, Maria - Sound of Music. BBC usually, Graham Norton hosted.

This time he is LOOKING FOR JESUS, having cast the rest of the show. Jesus Christ Superstar - yes? 1970s, bad songs? Wnner gets the part

So we are planning our usual Saturday night Bitchathon. Do join.

I'm in!!! Loved the last ones.

Pinot · 02/07/2012 10:11

I think Hullybobs would love it. I remember her enjoying the MIC telly crap. This is a similiar level of crap

It's hosted by 'Mandy Holden though

Hullygully · 02/07/2012 10:13

I got it was the telly, but honestly and truly I have never ever heard of that programme...

it could be because every time I think I might watch something the only progs allowed (by the dd) are CSI, Beverly Hills 7,000,000 and that physics one.

Perhaps I shall have to wrest the remote from her.

Hullygully · 02/07/2012 10:14

Oh yes MiC was my one prog allowed. Now it is Revenge.

I only get one at a time.

I shall investigate.

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:19

Living in a box, Hulls? Living in a cardboard box.

Ackerchly, I am a fine one to talks as I don't watch any telly other than this sort of crap. So I never know what people are on about.

Amanda Holden, really?

Deeply excited about this....

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:20

And Boffles and KedDDDDDDDD

What larks.

They should have called it Jesus Complex.

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:25

They are calling it 'Superstar' which is a wasted opportunity, I agree.

Not many good songs in JCSS though (lots of prog rock style nonsense iirc?) so I am assuming they will do the usual and get them to sing other ALW 'classics'

HERE they all are (Fail link). ALW says 'there's not one that looks like Jesus'

Beg to differ there, Lord Webbedfeet.

Pinot · 02/07/2012 10:27

Two thoughts on the pic on that link.

  1. None of them appear to have eyeballs
  1. Who invited the fatty on the right?
SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:30

Yes, they are all very squinty.

In fact - they all look a little bit like Jimmy Carr. Maybe Lord Webbedfeet should just have cast him?

I am IN but deeply disappointed after seeing the finalists - they're not Lee Mead, are they? In fact, they should just ditch the show and cast him.

And I agree with point 2, Pinot - he's not a man who's had to share his loaves and fishes with the 5,000, is he?

IAmSherlocked · 02/07/2012 10:38

I just marked the exam script of someone called Jesus...

SuePurblybilt · 02/07/2012 10:45

Yer man with the poodle perm was a Joseph. And he's bitching about it getting him nowhere but he was Che in Evita??? Zat not a starring role then?

I loved Antonio Banderas as Che

OP posts:
Pinot · 02/07/2012 10:46

Lee Mead is a great shout for Jesus. I hope he and Denise are OK. I fear she may be hard work for a naice boy like him.

Proper ARF at "not sharing his loaves" :o
