Ok- we say every year we won't watch.

Then we do.

Granted it is usually the thread that keeps us going. Please don't leave me talking to myselfGrin

This year we have the return of Cheryl, and thankfully bye bye to Sharon. Shitsinger will be missed for her batty Nicole-isms. Chezza-Fezza-Vezza, as she is now known, was never as funny. Sad And 'so-long' to Gary. We started off fancying him, and by the end we couldn't remember why.

One of the things that will put me off is Mel B. Couldn't stand her as a guest judge. She might be the reason I finally kick the habitGrin

The minimum age has been reduced to 14 - they have tried this before, and it didn't work. They were 'too young. (so why bother letting them be in it then??) Wandie Liam auditioned at 14, and came back at 16 though.

Will there be ARENAS???

Can we wait?

yes we can

Hello hello!

I am excited about Simon and sad about Gary and I can't think of a good reason for either of those emotions.

I hope we get some really dislikable people this year, last year they were all so bland that I really couldn't be bothered with it all by the end
