Did I miss the danger with the arrow man last night? I said to DH after I didn't get it at all. Or the mistake, although I was playing on my phone at the time. Poor effort last night. I voted for the impressionist as if he had gone through he would have got rid of all that staging crap and just been him. I think his impressions are good and I don't want a final of pure singers and dancers, which is what it will be. I don't think there is that much variety this year, apart from the shite they put through that never make it past the semi's.

Did anyone else think the music on the ballroom dancers was weird? It sounded like they had slowed Beyonce's songs down, really odd sounding, and they weren't fast enough dancing which is a shame as they looked quite good but it didn't fit with the slowed down music.

I'm predicting those projection people tonight. I think people will like it as it's different. I think it's a bit Attractionesque for me.

Yes 80s they won and the mother and son went through on the public vote after the judges voted 2 each.

MrsJayy · 23/05/2016 12:22

Arrow man's mechanism failed so 2 were set off instead it of 1 and the ballroom dancers were out of sync they missed a bit and couldn't catch up that's how it looked weird

MitzyLeFrouf · 23/05/2016 12:33

That mother and son act was bloody woeful.

MrsJayy · 23/05/2016 13:08

They so were sentimental twaddle yeah yeah you love your son we gettit now please stop singing

lem73 · 23/05/2016 13:11

I liked the mother and son but my teenage sons were cringing on behalf of the boy. They didn't want him to go through for his own sake!

MitzyLeFrouf · 23/05/2016 13:14

At 14 I had just about stopped finding it mortifying being spotted with my mother in public (sorry Mum!) but the idea of singing love songs with one of my parents on national TV doesn't appeal even now!

The80sweregreat · 23/05/2016 17:07

beyours, thank you. I had a feeling they would win this round after all the praise and coming on last too. I liked the Welsh singer Kathleen and I hope she does well now shes had some exposure. Wasn't keen on the mum and son, seems a bit odd to me but I doubt they will win it all anyway.
I think its had its day too to be honest, although Simon seems more relaxed on this than on the X factor!

wevecomeonholidaybymistake · 23/05/2016 18:48

The Mum and son were bloody cringe worthy. As DH so eloquently put it "he's going to get filled in when he's back at school".

So disappointed by last night, hope tonight's is better.

emmalimesmom · 23/05/2016 18:55

i cant say theres any act stands out to be the favourite to win maybe that couple that done the floaty dancing although i think it was just the back round scene that was moving and they were lying on the floor
(i not describing it very well am i)

LIZS · 23/05/2016 19:33

Sword man tonight!! Do we know what went amiss with crossbow man last night?

LIZS · 23/05/2016 19:38

Noooo! Tuneless, even the staging can't save them.

LIZS · 23/05/2016 19:39

No one watching?

MrsJayy · 23/05/2016 19:41

Recording so we can FF all the guffage

knittedslippersx2 · 23/05/2016 19:42

I'm watching. Thought it was a new thread each day so couldn't find you.
Let's hope it's better than last night.
Although, with that start!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 23/05/2016 19:43

I'm watching.

Dire so far.

SoleBizzz · 23/05/2016 19:45

Missed first fifteen minutes. Was watching Ever Decreasing Circles!

LIZS · 23/05/2016 19:46

Probably more entertaining.

SuffolkNWhat · 23/05/2016 19:48

I like this guy, Danny Dyer meets the Rat Pack

AnneEyhtMeyer · 23/05/2016 19:48

How the hell did this lot get to the semi-finals?

SoleBizzz · 23/05/2016 19:49

Martins colleague died doing an impression of Snozzlearning somebody or other. He got a rubber lining stuck onto his face, couldn't breathe and died in front of him as he thought his struggling to breathe was part of the act. Lmao at it.

AGreatBigWorld · 23/05/2016 19:49
