Just look at this song list

Andrea Faustini
Summertime (by Ella Fitzgerald)

Lauren Platt
Smile (by Nat King Cole)

Only The Young
I Wanna Be Like You (From The Jungle Book)

Stereo Kicks
Still TBC!

Ben Haenow
Cry Me A River (by Michael Buble)

Fleur East
Bang Bang (byJessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj)

Jay James
Empire State of Mind/New York New York medley (by Alicia Keys/Frank Sinatra)

Stevi Ritchie
Mambo Number 5/ She Bangs medley (by Lou Bega/Ricky Martin)

I'm sure an orchestra might be involved somewhere, but most of this list is frankly rubbish. Twice. Grin
Someone got 'Bang' and 'Band' mixed up.
The best one there is 'TBC' Grin

They are all going to be drowned out by the brass section, aren't they? Grin

See you later.

Bring nibbles.

The people's diva must be an oxymoron.

Simon is totally right about (a) it being a bit crap and (b) the awful face pulling.

SirNoel · 15/11/2014 20:27

'I'm very happy'

You need to tell your face pal

Afternoon tea on a bus is £45pp, looks quite nice and much more interesting than this

AWholeLottaNosy · 15/11/2014 20:28

I still luffs him! Smile

RudolphUcker · 15/11/2014 20:28

He's not wrong about the sexfaces tho, Mingehead.

dillite · 15/11/2014 20:28

Here you go, Pete.

RudolphUcker · 15/11/2014 20:28

Urgh, Sainsbos ad.

TheJiminyConjecture · 15/11/2014 20:29

Ooh sainsburys ad.

CalamitouslyWrong · 15/11/2014 20:29

He is playing tictacs now, BOF. He really doesn't want pugsy to win.

But he also wasn't lying, the tictacs Grin are in the lying about everyone else.

Ah, the sainsburys cash in on the war.

LittleBairn · 15/11/2014 20:29

I've just tuned in, loving Cheryl's Dress.
I think Simon is going into assassin mode, starting to playing with the opponents mind and self confidence after weeks of support they just get all Confused

TheFairyCaravan · 15/11/2014 20:29

This Sainsburys ad makes me cry! Sad

NoisyBrain · 15/11/2014 20:29

Sainsbury's ad.

Raahh · 15/11/2014 20:29

He is such a nice bloke. I hope we so not find out it is all an act, and he's a petulant stroppy diva.

Simon just doesn't want someone forrin to win- it will probably cost him money.

Sainsbury's advert- I'm torn by this one. Can't decide if i like it or not.

And it makes me think of 'Pipes of Peace'- which is never a good thing.

What is that cracker thing, does that get swapped along with the chocolate does anyone know?

AWholeLottaNosy · 15/11/2014 20:29

Sadly I think if he does win, he'll get eaten alive by Cowell's pop machine. He comes across as quite humble and naive.

RudolphUcker · 15/11/2014 20:31

It's like the Downton special. All it wants is Fat Cousin Matthew putting his jumper down for a goalpost.

NoisyBrain · 15/11/2014 20:31

I hate that this ad makes me cry. because ultimately it's about a Supermarket trying to make more money than the others at Christmas But blub I do

Raahh · 15/11/2014 20:31

I agree, he doesn't seem very worldy. He probably has no idea what will happen when he wins.

Thanks, I'll leave that page subtly open on the laptop.

Not sure about the Sainsbury's ad.

nancy75 · 15/11/2014 20:31

there are some things that shouldn't be used to advertise supermarkets

TheJiminyConjecture · 15/11/2014 20:31

Do they still teach silent night in German lessons? I remember singing it with similar talent to clunt, I could have been a star dammit

dillite · 15/11/2014 20:31

But of course they are playing football. Can't be any other way, can it?

AWholeLottaNosy · 15/11/2014 20:32

I HATE this ad. Capitalism has sunk to new depths using mass slaughter to flog goods. What's next, the Holocaust, Rwanda, FGM..??

Awks · 15/11/2014 20:32

I hate this bloody Sainsburys ad. It's just so wrong.

LittleBairn · 15/11/2014 20:32

Rahh I feel the same way about this advert. Its rather beautiful but then maybe also a bit crass too. But we all know the story so it doesn't seem that crass and does capture the true meaning of Christmas. But then again its all to selling a brand.
I've though too deeply about this advert. Confused
