I don't mind 'Edge of Heaven' too much for J and J- it could have been much worse.
Am very surprised at the choice for the Cutkelvins. At the beginning of the series, I thought they were one of the favourites, but Simon doesn't seem to be giving them much, and they are increasingly becoming the sister , with backing.

And BINGO! 'I can't make you love me' I can't stand that song- and it's Grace singing it- which means they really want her to win. it's such a favourite on these shows.

I think Rat Soup doing 'Faith' rather than Sam , means Sam is going home.

And hopefully, the title of Sobby's song is an omen Grin

There are rumours that the quadruple elimination won't happen now. Which is good in a way, as it would probably have left us with Grace and Rat Soup for the next 4 weeks .

So- I'm off to check if dd1's football has been postponed, and then i need to sort out snacks for later. Grin

Well here we go, let's hope the beautiful songs don't get slaughtered!

MusicToMyEars800 · 11/11/2017 20:10

What is with Nicole and her dresses...? they look like they've been attacked by a swarm of moths.

The80sweregreat · 11/11/2017 20:11

Hello all. Hope we, re all well and had a good week. Ready to rumble?

Raahh · 11/11/2017 20:11

So now we know- they have split the categories.

At least it means if Rat Soup win tonight, they might be up against Grace (if she wins ) tomorrow.

I am evil. I was looking forward to a double eliminationGrin

MusicToMyEars800 · 11/11/2017 20:13

No double elimination either.

The80sweregreat · 11/11/2017 20:13

Watched strictly ( was good) now for some George. Let’s pray it’s not all bad.

NoisyBrain · 11/11/2017 20:13

Raahh I'm ashamed to say that until I watched the documentary about George the other week I didn't even know that They Wont't Go... was a Stevie Wonder song Blush

MusicToMyEars800 · 11/11/2017 20:14

Raahh · 11/11/2017 20:14

TheFairyCaravan · 11/11/2017 20:14

Hello

I'm only watching for a short while. I'm turning over to watch the Festival of Remembrance at 9pm. I don't think the XFactor has ever been this shit tbh.

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 11/11/2017 20:14

Checking in. Bracing myself for the slaughter of George's songs. Wine aplenty

MusicToMyEars800 · 11/11/2017 20:15

Simon looks like a badger.

NoisyBrain · 11/11/2017 20:15

I still have moments where I think "Bloody hell, George Michael is DEAD" iykwim

The80sweregreat · 11/11/2017 20:16

Rat sue doing Faith..I had Sam down
For this.

Raahh · 11/11/2017 20:16

Noisy it's one of those songs , that once you realise it is, you can hear it is.

A bit like Bee Gees songs. Grin

But I love George's version.
