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?

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' insteadGrin, and I might have some mince pies left.

So- anyone going to join me?

Smooth voice.

Screamer1 · 07/01/2017 20:17

Anyone else wondering how much Botox gavin has had?

Roussette · 07/01/2017 20:18

yes, not the same with ads

MrsDoylesTeabags · 07/01/2017 20:18

Coco I also have one of them.
Mr Doyle has just commented that even with adverts this is better than Let it Shine. can't stand Garry Barlow though

Roussette · 07/01/2017 20:18

He is only 51... he looks about that I would've said...

bonnieweelass · 07/01/2017 20:19

JHud is very annoying and I always thought she would be nice, but she's irritating me

Oh bugger.

Adverts.

I had forgotten about those. And we don't even have JL Christmas ads to distract us.
