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?

nancy75 · 07/01/2017 20:31

Gavin does have a very smooth forehead

NoisyBrain · 07/01/2017 20:31

Did Tom just mention Wales? I was distracted by the cat.

MrsDoylesTeabags · 07/01/2017 20:31

The guitarist had beautiful eyes

The80sweregreat · 07/01/2017 20:31

Jamie theakston!
His name is Gavin something.
In a band called Bush?
I had no idea either.

Screamer1 · 07/01/2017 20:31

Gavin looks like he's been airbrushed. Eyes don't move when he smiles.

Cocolepew · 07/01/2017 20:31

Fuck it. First go and I got it wrong.

Kimmy- It's Gavin Rossdale, Mr Gwen Stefani, from Bush .

These two may have gigged in Chicken farms. I might have misheard.

Elvis is alive and well.

They've gone with S'Tom. Boy-o. All is well with the universe.

I can't get used to the adverts. Which is strange, because it's completely normal on X Factor. Grin

No, the lure of Wales was too much
The dominos ad is funny! ( makes me feel hungry)

Noisybrain

Thank you. I have watched them on youtube now and they still don't ring a bell.

Destinysdaughter · 07/01/2017 20:34

How can anyone go with Tom or Will when none of their protégés have ever had a hit record from this bloody show..?

NoisyBrain · 07/01/2017 20:34

80s I'm a bit crap with the whole linky thing, but here's Bush's 'big' UK hit:

The80sweregreat · 07/01/2017 20:34

Raahh, it shouldnt have ads.
Its not right.

NoisyBrain · 07/01/2017 20:34

Oh wha'dya know, it worked!

MrsDoylesTeabags · 07/01/2017 20:35

I never understand why the SCS woman is so dressed up in a settee shop. What's that all about?

The80sweregreat · 07/01/2017 20:35

Noisy, thank you.
They really did pass me by.
Had kids in the 90s, maybe thats why?

cece · 07/01/2017 20:36

OK yes that one is vaguely familiar. TBH I was more of a Stock, Aitken and Waterman girl. Grin
