X FACTOR- It's Judges' Houses- and it is on ****SAT/SUN**** from this week (8pm).

[Raahh]

I nearly missed this, because I thought it was still only on on Sunday.

And I am REALLY disappointed- because Grimmy isn't in Oldham. He's in the Cotswolds. Probably a wise move.

Also, in a twist, tonight's is recorded- but the result as to who goes through (finally) to the live shows is live. I think. I might have got that wrong. No idea what anyone is singing. There will probably be Whitney or J-Hud, with a smattering of Bey-Bey.

And 4th Power have changed their name to 4th Impact. Thrilled by that.

I need nibbles.

See y'all later.

There you are Raahh
Is it too early to get into my pyjamas and pour a vodka?

Pre-4pm is the perfect time for vodka and pjs, I think

Oh this is the programme I try not to watch.

I knew you would understand Raahh
In the event I got into my pyjamas but I'm about to pour my first vodka.

Liney

I am hoping things get better this week. I'm not convinced it will, but I can hope.

COTSWOLDS?

With Kate Moss and the glitterati?

WE WERE PROMISED THE GRIM INDUSTRIAL NORTH!

Yoga pants and red wine here.

squoosh- I know, gutted.

closes blinds on views of grim industrial North

It's not that industrial here really, but I'm nearly on the airport runway.

Grimmy's 'helper' is Mark Ronson, apparently. He hobnobs with southern types and Bruno Mars. He probably doesn't realise there is a 'North'

Okay, I'm ready. Hedgehog is poorly tonight and I'm in a proper grump for no real reason, but I'll try and reign it in!

I wouldn't sniff at my pjs if I were you squoosh
Show us the Christmas jumper again. Please

I have mis-matched pjs and cider.

I wish I had vodka.

two and a half hours!

crumbs.

Nearly on the airport runway Raahh?
That's convenient.

What's wrong with the hedgehog Anchor?
What do you do with an ailing hedgehog?

Pop round Raahh I've got loads of voddy.

Oh- this is different- this bit is live I take it- but the actual recorded bit isn't live, Caroline.

Olly in a roll neck.
Is anyone else old enough to remember Val Doonican?

Evening everyone. I'm hoping I can watch this in peace and quiet tonight, last Sunday I was getting updates from DS2 in A&E because he broke his arm in 2 places playing football at uni!

Caroline - that dress!! And for the love of goodness woman, where is your bra??

Me, thered!

That dress does nothing for Carolyn. At least she's washed her hair and got out of last year's godawful denim shorts.

I used to work at the airport, so it is very useful.

Sadly it is many years since I have used the place as a passenger.

This is a bit like the Strictly results where they are pretending Sunday is 'live'.

Simon Lynch?? Do i remember him?

Boooo! To Mason.

I'm pissed that Mason twat is back!

This is quaintly reminiscent of the old school Pop Idol format.

What's going on? Why aren't they in far flung places and the north

I'm confuzzled

It really is a bad dress.

Did they ever tell us that Mason was back or are we glossing over it?
