I went this evening to the filming, First time. It was interesting to hear it live, can't wait to see it played back.
We were in the circle. So quite high and definitely the show is designed to be seen on tv and the stalls. So a lot of the sound was off.
Choir were OK, audience loved them I didn't get the emotion the judges talked about,
Little boy was out of tune. Audience loved him.
You couldn't properly hear impressionist and comedian. Shame. The audience is geed up in the intervals so quiet and cerebral isn't quite going to do it.
Audience loved weebly man - it sounded identical to the audition.
The Michael Jackson thriller imitators - audience went wild for them. I explained to my DC that I would show them the MJ thriller video from over 30 years ago and perhaps they would then see why I was clapping politely.
Personally I liked the opera/musical guy best. He filled the theatre. Simon's comments to me just seemed about the £. That guy wouldn't make cowell any money,
