THE VOICE - it's back, Sir Tom is back, it's on ITV, it's on at ****8pm****... it can't be any worse than last year, can it?

[Raahh]

So, do we think it will be better or worse now ITV have their mitts on it?

2 new judges- Gavin Rossdale, who I'm not sure I like much, and J-Hud, which will hopefully spare us renditions of her songs from the wannabes.

And of course, Will-i-am. Bill je suis.

I'm glad Tom is back, but I might actually miss Ricky a bit, and his desperate 'be my friend' ways. And even Boy George grew on me a bit by the end of last year.

New twist- the judges who don't turn, don't have to to turn around and make nice with the acts. So, if no judges turn around, I expect, they just have to leave the stage all dejected and sad. which is harsh. But could be fun.

So- I'm not doing dry January, as I've too much alcohol lying around for that, but I managed, 'dry September-ish to November' instead, and I might have some mince pies left.

So- anyone going to join me?

yes Mo could be the winner
but Jennifer is v v annoying.

[Destinysdaughter]

Just watched the rest on catch up. Mo was fantastic, what a voice and seemed like a lovely guy too.

Mo to win! 😀

[APlaceOnTheCouch]

Do you think we could start a change.org petition to bring Ricky back?
Gav's back-story drowns out his prettiness and Jennifer is just too American.
Plus, why have they locked the fragrant Emma in a store cupboard with no mike? Let her present ffs

[Choccywoccyhooha]

Ahhh, this is better. I tried that Barlow crap, my God it was awful.
Love The Voice and this year's judges are possibly the best line up yet and they all have real talent themselves.

[Raahh]

Oh that was who won last year!! Kevin(?) from Liberty X. He was all depressed and miserable after his first shot at fame died a death, and then last year didn't exactly work out for him either! I (genuinely) hope he is o.k

[Raahh]

The only Voice alumnus to have had any real career, that I can name, has been Becky Hill I think. She's not set the charts alight, but she has had a steady career, mainly as a 'featured ' artist on dance type stuff.

[PlectrumElectrum]

The Scottish firefighter was on a Hogmanay show recently - didn't see the show but his face came up on the ads & it took about 3 viewings to place him. Steve something?

Was it that ex-pop stars reject who won last year? I've not seen hyde nor hair of him since.

[Raahh]

I hope Jennifer calms down a bit, but we will be seeing these auditions out of any real order, so I doubt it.

Bet she wishes she had worn something more comfortable. Like one of Ricky's suit's and waistcoats. She was forever tugging the dress down.

[MrsDoylesTeabags]

Have a good one

[Empress13]

Well sorry what a crock of shite that was - they should rename it the Jhudshow:-)

Btw can any of you name one winner off THe Voice that went on to do well?? No me neither!

G'night !

[NoisyBrain]

TTFN!

[Cocolepew]

See you all next week!

[CondensedMilkSarnies]

[bonnieweelass]

[itssquidstella]

Ooh he picked Jennifer!

[Bejazzled]

What a voice he has

[Crispbutty]

Definately the best of the night!

[Raahh]

I really like him.

Mo to win!

[itssquidstella]

Yeah that would be helpful, I hardly ever know the songs!

[Roussette]

Fantastic voice. Willy is a twit.

[Philoslothy]

I think he will pick will I am
