It's 'Songs that will get me to the final' or 'Just sing any old shit, there are two weeks left, and Simon wants to be on a yacht somewhere.'

Here is what they will be performing-

Ché Chesterman
Would I Lie To You? - Charles & Eddie
Love Is A Losing Game - Amy Winehouse

Lauren Murray
Runnin' (Lose It All) - Naughty Boy Ft. Beyoncé & Arrow Benjamin
Best Of My Love - Emotions (Ella Eyre version)

Louisa Johnson
The Power Of Love - Frankie Goes To Hollywood (Gabrielle Aplin version)
It's A Man's Man's Man's World - James Brown (Christina Aguilera version)

Reggie 'N' Bollie
Locked Away - R City Ft. Adam Levine
I Gotta Feeling / I Like To Move It - Black Eyed Peas / Reel 2 Real

Just when you thought SpagBollie couldn't get worse- they do. 'I like to Move it'- this reminds me of King Julian in 'Madagascar' Or Zig and Zag. (Who were one of Simon's first big 'acts' dontcha know.). Grin I suppose there aren't many lyrics to actually sing.

I think Lauren is in danger because- Louisa is being pushed as the winner, and getting rid of Spag Bollie would probably cause Princess Chezza to throw a hissy fit. At least she's moved on from Mariah and Whitney... to Beyonce.

Aeroflot will be wanting to make up for not knowing the words to 'Hello'- but Charles and Eddie??! The only thing that will make up for this, is if he wears a long black Charles (or was it Eddie? ) wig.

I have to go to my dds' Christmas fayre at school. Humbug.
I am hoping to win enough alcohol to make tonight bearable Grin

See y'all later.

Yes, that was the saddest part Tendon, a tiny child losing both their parents in one go. Tragic.

80s- Slack does favour a short. Maybe it's a skort.

Think KY Jelly are missing a trick in not using 'Relax' for an advert...

The80sweregreat · 05/12/2015 20:44

Snort at skort! Jd williams do them , but they are not cheap

We3KingyOfOblomovAre · 05/12/2015 20:44

I love the earings / ear cuffs that both Louisa Johnson and also Caroline flack are wearing. How can I find out where they are from?

Greaterthanthesumoftheparts · 05/12/2015 20:44

evening all, sorry for my tardiness, PIL tried setting Smoking us out by lighting the fire with the chimney closed!!!! Did I miss anything interesting hasn't RTFT

squoosh · 05/12/2015 20:44

Anyone else think Olly looks totally spooked in a Fr Dougal kind of way since his big Monica mess up a few weeks ago? His nerve is gone.

Colliejollychristmas · 05/12/2015 20:44

The TV wasn't on mute and I didn't even notice Louisa had sung! Blush was it boring? Or am I missing out? Haha!

80s- we need to pitch it asap. Make a fortune.

Followed by 'Two Tribes' showing a Jl/ M and S stand off.

Lionel wants to call them all shit. He's a polite man .

Is it still hurting collie? If so if you press down on it does it hurt more when you press down or when you've let go?

London Boys were great.
RnB should sing Relax at Butlins next year

The80sweregreat · 05/12/2015 20:46

Raahh, but i think the ad boys would say ..no! Not in the spirit of JL mush,

BitOfFun · 05/12/2015 20:47

Lionel gives advice for the second performance. Then Slack asks him what advice he has for the second performance.

How did she ever get a job?

squoosh · 05/12/2015 20:47

I did enjoy Lionel's Glastonbury set. It was most singalong-able with, with a glass of wine in hand.

Destiny- ky jelly

Lionel is thinking- 'get out there and actually work for a living, you lazy buggers who get it handed them on a plate'

No perfume adverts please?

NoisyBrain · 05/12/2015 20:47

When Louisa first started singing I thought she had Jedis with light sabres either side of her.

The80sweregreat · 05/12/2015 20:48

I like Lionel too and his glasto set was a mazing! I was dancing round the room..

theredlion · 05/12/2015 20:48

greaterthan so far - R&Bollix tried to sing and it didn't go well - Lauren sang ok but it was all quite forgetful - Che did Would I Lie To You and it was a better performance than the ones he's done of late - Louisa did Power Of Love, it was good but again forgettable.

nancy75 · 05/12/2015 20:48

squoosh Ollie looks like he is a bag of nerves, he has lost his bottle after the big fuck up, on a lighter note he was in one of the papers snogging Flack the other day

80s damn those ad men. Sad

I hope they do Christmas songs next week. But since they have given up on even Hallowe'en week, let alone Big band, I can't see it.
