...but I'm surprised and delighted by the lack of J-Hud.

and 'Ice Ice Baby'? Even Jedward is preferable to Honey fucking G now.
Elfish doing 'Oh So quiet' will get shouty and desperate, and she might even wear a Bjork-ish swan costume. I hope she does. Grin

Here are the choices-

The Boys
Matt Terry
Mariah Carey - I’ll Be There

Ryan Lawrie
Adele - Rolling in The Deep

The Girls
Emily Middlemas
Whitney Houston - How Will I Know

Sam Lavery
Michael Jackson - Earth Song

Gifty Louise
Sam Smith - Lay Me Down

The Overs
Honey G
Vanilla Ice / Queen - Ice, Ice Baby/Under Pressure

Relley C
Aretha Franklin - Natural Woman

Saara Aalto
Bjork - Oh So Quiet

The Groups
5 After Midnight
Amy Winehouse - Valerie

Four of Diamonds
Lady Marmalade/Bang Bang - May, Pink / Lil' Kim, Jessie J, Arianna Grande.

The same songs are appearing series upon series, with boring regularity now. I HATE 'Earth Song' Poor Made Under Sam. Sad

I wonder if Emily will turn 'how will I know' into a ballad? of all Whitney's big Diva songs, it's not one I'd instantly go for.

I have chocolate fingers and decaf coffee. I have been clearing out dd1's room in readiness for a new bed. It is 'a job I wish I had never started'.

See y'all later!

(because the song was really not one of their best).

I'm waning badly, I didn't like that.

Destinysdaughter · 22/10/2016 21:39

I actually did like this ( but mainly cos most of the acts are pretty mediocre...)

Roussette · 22/10/2016 21:39

Yeah Raahh but too much of of a muchness with this lot I think..

Solina · 22/10/2016 21:39

His finnish jokes are just awful Hmm

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:39

I forgot all about her.

How are they managing to stretch the show to last 2 weeks even though there are less acts with every week?

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:40

Toffee makes me think of my childhood and it being such a massive treat.

nancy75 · 22/10/2016 21:40

Apparently last week one of the little mix had to cellotape their nether regions into their leotard, must have been tricky when she needed a wee

RJnomore1 · 22/10/2016 21:40

Ive given up an moved onto casualty. I will catch up on the last few tomorrow. I am planning on prosecco with the old firm game so it might be bearable then.

The80sweregreat · 22/10/2016 21:41

The blond diamond is very pretty.
Its been a bit lacklustre this week. Shazza is sober, the acts so so.
Its had its day i think.

Raahh · 22/10/2016 21:41

I still don't like Elfish. But they know she is marmite, so they are keeping her near the end. I think she will still be bottom 3 tomorrow, even without seeing her. She will do a properly bonkers Bjork performance. It won't be a JL Bjork for Elfish, oh, no.

Yeah basically they were saying the 4 of diamonds weren't 'sexy' enough. I wonder if they would give that critique to one of the male contestants?

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:42

Was Katherine Jenkins always this skinny? Her face looks half the size from how I remember it.

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:43

I love TkMaxx Doris. I want her to be my granny.

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:44

People are not voting for you because you are fake as fuck.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 22/10/2016 21:44

"I think people are not voting for me because I am not from here."

Hmm. Not sure that will get you more votes in the current climate...

nancy75 · 22/10/2016 21:46

So she's doing a bjork impression, badly

Raahh · 22/10/2016 21:46

Oh ffs.

So we get ott staging, and distraction techniques to try to make us love her.

ain't working for me so far.

Anchor, saaraexit
Its a thing

dillite · 22/10/2016 21:46

You see, this makes me dislike her even more.

Raahh · 22/10/2016 21:46

That's one freaky rabbit.

Roussette · 22/10/2016 21:47

This song does no one any favours. I just remember some daft programme when one of the Battersbys from Corrie sang it... "tonight, Matthew, I'm gonna be... Bjork"

theredlion · 22/10/2016 21:47

This is weird.
