Well, not literally, obviously. No fighting in the ring, Voice-stylee (my money would be on Bouncy).

No- this week, our beloved acts are performing 2 songs- a Beyonce one, and an Elton on.

Here are the songs:

Luke Friend
Best Thing I Never Had
Something About The Way You Look Tonight

Nicholas McDonald
Halo
Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me

Rough Copy
Survivor
Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word

Sam Bailey
If I Were A Boy
Candle In The Wind

Whoever suggested 'Cnadle in the Wind' for ScrewLoose last week, wins the Internet. Congratulations. Flowers

Rumours abound that Duff Copy will leave. I hope not.

I'm really sad no-one is doing 'Circle of Life'. In costume Xmas Sad

I'm off to the school Christmas fair late. I'm going to need a lot of Wine.

I just think everything he sings sounds the same.

I love a bit of Mickey. But not sure about his jacket.
I bet he was sniggering at the trees too.

I still think he's a serial killer, but with a heart Xmas Grin

Is he going to do that 'take it away boys' thing?

PeteCampbellsRecedingHairline · 08/12/2013 20:27

And who was the Mner who said he looks like a thumb? That still makes me Grin Grin

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:27

Arf at 'healthier'. He's getting a bit of a double chin.

zookeeper · 08/12/2013 20:27

He's orange!

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:27

The poor trees would have had to walk, shamefacedly, past him to get off the stage probably.

SuePurblybilt · 08/12/2013 20:28

The serial killer thread disappeared you know. Cannot find it.

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:29

Especially if you're 60! Imagine what they'd do with a group firmed in a nursing home.

colleysxmasmillofcheer · 08/12/2013 20:29

They should have kept the dancing trees for Bubble too - I'm still chortling now

JoyeuxNoelHeadbands · 08/12/2013 20:29

That is a travesty Sue

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:30

Actually, we should encourage some really old people to form a group. That would get loads of votes.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 08/12/2013 20:30

Oh Mickey. Is it time for the ultra fake Bubbles CHristmas special yet?

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:31

The British public love to patronise the really elderly.

Sadly, the xfactor producers think that 25 is geriatric. Imagine what they'd do when presented with people in their 90s.

CalamitouslyWrong · 08/12/2013 20:33

This is the please, please buy the single, it's for charity you know bit.

SuePurblybilt · 08/12/2013 20:34

Not in a _Chat way, I cannot find the XF thread for that week.
Sinister, eh?

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 08/12/2013 20:35

All I'm going to say is.......

KayChanel?

Really?

JoyeuxNoelHeadbands · 08/12/2013 20:35

Hmmm Sue I see what you mean- I just searched as well.. It's gawn.

I wonder WHY?

This the charity they have supported for a couple of years now, I think.

I find all this so fucking cynical though. This family have real problems; the producers just want to ensure people buy the single/make it number 1/make some more money.

SuePurblybilt · 08/12/2013 20:36

They let Kimberley-Won't-Wash into a hospital ward? Rilly?
