THE VOICE- it's the FINAL!! The excitement...

[Raahh]

...is almost non-existent.

Poor Rita, who has been a lot better than JJ and Kylie before her has no acts left. Vikesh was knocked out last week. So, it's a typical 'do we really care' type of Voice final.

The song choices (again, we have to guess the singers) are

What I Did For Love – David Guetta featuring Emeli Sande

Chain Of Fools – Aretha Franklin

No Surprises – Radiohead

Habanera from Carmen

I’ll Stand By You – The Pretenders

Get Back – The Beatles

Somebody I Used To Know – Gotye

Crazy – Seal

Ebben N’Andro Lontana from La Wally

Not really hard to guess which ones Opera woman will do.

Stevie is apparently the favourite. I bet he's doing 'Get Back'.

Sasha, she might be a brickie, we will wait to be told, will maybe do Aretha.

Beyond that, I'm stumped, as I've forgotten who they are.

I have a strange ginger that Dh got me from Aldi, and breadsticks and houmous.

Just off to bribe the dcs to wash the baboon footprints off the car, after a trip to Knowsley safari park

Ample, i wish Ricks was my friend for life.. ( sobs in wine) i really do have a crush. He wouldnt look twice at me.. Life is poo

Losing have you really forgotten him so quickly??
Or maybe you just mislaid the script

You could fit a whole Tesco Value Chicken Fillet Pack in Rita's dress!

There must be lots of people sitting there thinking, 'well, I'm better than captain karaoke there'.

Danny from the fairground script

So who won?

I've always preferred Placido too. Pavarotti was a bit overblown imo. My grandmother took me to hear him at, I think, the ROH when I was about 10. I didn't think he was that good then, either!

Danny O'Dodgems from The Script. Tedious Oirish Rockers. Used to be in Ricky's smarmy seat

I love Rita's hair.

Sing- Placido is one of those older men, who I think is still gorgeous

No one has the superpower to make a winner successful...

\i think they try too hard with this show. reflective moment going on

Let's not make the judges more than they are.

spud they still haven't put us out of our misery.

the filler that should be in Rita's dress is on screen instead..

Hah, dodging the Rannaldini question there. I knew it.

the80s can you become a fireman/woman and audition next year? There's always hope.

Teething dd has summoned me to her room with anguished cries so I now have no idea what's happening. Not sure if it's her teeth or in protest at her parents wasting their Saturday night watching the voice.

"Like body particles"? Wtf

They must have announced the winner by now.....
What time does it finish? Oh no, not 9.10?

BBC1 primetime, feels more like an old episode of CD;UK

o'dodgems is on now, spud

Ample- none of us know what is going on. Your dd did you a favour

(But {{{hugs}}} ) to the teething.

I seem to recall that Rannaldini wasn't entirely likeable though...! Although I've heard many a naughty rumour about Placido...

oh god I hate the Script

I cant sing, my poor nans have long gone, i was 50 last week. There is NO hope. Dodgums is on now.

Watching the opera clips, I can see a big difference between Lucy and that proper opera woman. I have no idea what the difference is technically, but you can certainly make out what the proper singer is singing better. Lucy doesn't sound like she's forming words.

I see the script haven't gotten any more interesting since last year.

Is O'Dodgems wearing tights and shorts?
So 2012.
