Doesn't time fly, when they really shorten the format?
Grin

I think the audition stuf was just a bit pointless, and now that Jenny has been re-instated, and Vinnie Jones is in, without even having to sing, it makes it seem like they all got a nice jolly abroad. The Only one who took is seriously was Jezza Edwards, who was deluded into thinking he could actually sing Grin.

Re-cap of who is who (can't find a proper list of who is singing what other than Megan is singing an original again)

Simon and the Groups

The Islanders- Love Island alumni
V5- female group of Social media influencers
Try Star- Rugby players .
Max and Harvey- twins with a CBBC show

Louis and the Unders
Olivia Olson- best known for Love Actually- aged about 12
Megan McKenna- Someone from Towie. Who has already released things.
Kevin McHale- a singer from Glee
Jonny Labey- actor and perdormer. Probably better at dancing.

Nicole and the Overs
Ricki Lake- Presenter and actress.
Victoria Ekanoye- Corrie Actress
Martin Bashir- Journalist. Not known for singing.
Vinnie Jones- Footballer and actor
Jenny Ryan- The Vixen , from The Chase. Was dumped. Is back.

So there you are.

I have vodka. No Stoptover for me. No sirree.

Grin.

Oh, and we will find out who leaves tonight, no Sinday show anymore! Shock

Honestly you couldn’t make this up - what is the actual point of having votes and sing offs if Simon can basically orchestrate it ConfusedGrin

The80sweregreat · 09/11/2019 21:58

Oh well. Been fascinating and who knew yellow was such a big colour this season.
I like Kev. I think Jen might get to the final and I think Vinnie should go next week.
See you all soon. ..

Wes was good at skating. He's making the most of his 15 minutes.

Just saw that one of the Rat Souper's is going to be on the I'm a Celeb. It's like we summoned him by mentioning their names on the thread today!

dillite it was written on this thread in the stars.

I couldn't pick an individual Rat Souper out of a line up if you paid me. It really is stretching 'celebrity.'

Well, here go again. This week at 8.20pm .

So, Martin has gone-

This is who is left -

Megan McKenna
Kevin McHale
Vinnie Jones
Jenny Ryan
Try Star
V5
Max and Harvey

I have just read that the final will in 2 weeks- 30th November - and will clash with Strictly that night.

I am very underwhelmed by this series. Not just the speed of it, all of it. It just feels like it's a set up for Megan to win- and that the album is already half recorded.
There have been no 'theme' weeks- which of course, she wouldn't be able to do with all her dull self written songs.

But, you know I will probably watch anyway Grin.

No Wine for me this week, as I spent all of last Saturday night (just after the show) in agony due to kidney stones, and ended up in hospital on Sunday. So- water it is Grin.

OP posts:
dillite · 16/11/2019 15:36

Just water! Do you really want to torture yourself like that?

I'm not looking forward to watching tonight. As you say, it all just feels very rushed and very half-arsed, and yes, like a promotion for Megan.

Welcome! Auntie to be honest, compared to the ordinary version of this, we've been quite restrained Grin.

AuntieFox welcome! We're no Strictly, that's for sure Grin

raahh a splash of lemon! Now you're talking!

JaneJeffer · 16/11/2019 19:24

JaneJeffer · 16/11/2019 20:15

Wow! Does she like her outfits? Grin

I've been having a read of the Strictly thread. They're hardcore!

AuntieFox · 16/11/2019 20:19

Yea .. loving getting dressed up .. and all the glam, very different to The Chase
