X FACTOR 2015! New Series starts this weekend -SAT 29th/SUN 30th 8.00pm

[Raahh]

...prompted by Hearts- here is the first thread of the year. It's traditional, innit. Even if this year, I am finding it very hard to get enthused.

So- what do we think of the new judges?
Are we happy they have got rid of the room auditions? -no--
What ubiquitous song will the acts sing in the auditions?
Will we miss Dermot dancing? Or will Strictly winner Caroline do the honours probably

It's all in the ARENA this year- apparently with props, and whatever else the acts want to bring along. Maybe even a tune, if we are lucky. It is going more and more BGT.

So, Autumn is now officially on it's way, it's nearly time for the Christmas John Lewis ad...

are we ready to face the music?

BitOf- tried not to laugh at your comment, but I did.

Oh God, what will they dress her (Jennifer) in for the live shows? She's not a slip of a thing so it will be something bad.

Will she be the new Tesco Mary?

oh I'm a bit late, can I join you? I loved her!

(I lose my appitite when miserable, the happier I am, the more I eat.)

Wigs , yes. I have forgotten the power of 'wardrope'

Harry wants to be on the movies, I imagine he's too busy on the casting couch for grimboy

Honeydragon- I'm seeing pleather and turbans in her future

Yy, it will be pleather. Poor poor Jennifer.
F she lasts, she'll get the sequined tent.

< Wonders what HoneyDragons mum leg bag was >

at pleathered for punishment for not having hair. Maybe they'll give her a wig?

Yo, yo, yo X Factor massive!!! I've missed you!! Thanks Raah. I knew you wouldn't let us down.
I too was not feeling enthused...but I'm LOVING it tonight!
Maybe my life has taken a turn for the worse since last year.

maybe it is just me but the judges gelling together seems a bit off...maybe cos there are two new ones. Just feels a bit off for me

Tesco mary! Memory lane beakons

oooh turbans - nice

Getting freaked because Nick Grimshaw looks like Stevie from last year!

Evening spud

Why are they talking about mentoring people in the first episode. It isn't The Voice.

There are too many changes for me to take in at once. It unsettles me.

One direction have split. It should serve as a warning

Great news everyone -they've invented the pleather turban!

Signed in for the first time in eons just for this thread!! Xfactor not the same without the bitching and humour on here!

Blimey, Jason Manford's let himself go.

Lots of fake tan about...

Tom's got his best tracksuit on, it's good to dress for the occasion

Cheryl - the teeth!!

Triple threat- singing, dieting and biffa-ing.

Pleather turbans, bring it on!
