X-FACTOR!! Auditions week, er, 3? 4?? it's time to face...

[paRaahhlympiansgoingforgold]

...the fact it is getting a bit boring But I will persevere!

I have vodka, and strange madras flavoured naan bread crisp things (any takers?)

Anyone know when we get to bootcamp stage?

I'll be joining in tonight :)

The only people I noticed in the auditions were the ghastly peroxide long hair Ibitha male model who could not sing for toffee- and looked like Ken-- and the one who almost dropped the mike he was shaking so much. Oh, and I still can't get over the threesome from MK who turned into a twosome with a quick "I want 33%" deal struck with the can't-sing-older-one on stage. Definitely a [hmmm] moment.

It was a real pity the judges didn't have swivel chairs so they could face away and just enjoy the singing until they'd made their judgement... oh no, wait a minute, wrong show...

ommm- a buzzer and a trap door in the floor would also be a nice twist.

Oh YES!!! I would definitely watch that :-D

Trying to think what thrilling new twists they'll be able to come up with this year. The whole kick-out-one-from-each-team-at-the-beginning-of-the-live-shows thing was a bit meh last year. I hope they don't do it again. Oh and I Really hope there isn't a cockoozer this time (but there was a pretty crap rocker featured at the auditions, wasn't there?)

I was watching without the interwebs for the last couple of weeks and wrote bitchy posts in my head - I can't be doing with niceness.

And YY, there was obviously someone earmarked to be Clean Cockoozer. Bazza had that same ££$$£££$$ eye thing going on.

Hi, I am watching too, tonight.

what time does it start? Think I will miss some- will prop catch up by the first ad break

20:10pm tonight, ITV:)

Yes! Having had a pesky interfering social life the last couple of weekends I am poised and ready. Except I think Dr Who overlaps so I'll be late to the party.

I may be late - DD currently watching a DVD, but I will be here.

Ready?
