I know- time flies.

I remember it, because a woman I was school with was in one of the groups. (They were eliminated in the first week of the live shows).

And I'd just had dd1 when the series started.

Ooh whatever happened to Leona Lewis?? She had a nice voice but the faux “I’m so sweet and I have no idea how good I am” schtick was annoying.

dillite · 16/11/2019 22:32

free I think she's on Broadway these days. Wasn't one of Nicole's roles given to Leona by Andrew Lloyd-Webber?

Poor Vinnie has probably shot himself in the foot there, he’ll probably have gained some fans having tried to be a gentleman and now he’ll be stuck on the show til the final.

He’s probably seen all the social media comments and is well aware both that he can’t sing and that several contestants who genuinely could have been kicked off and want to try and distance himself from the car crash of a show.

I've just watched this. Vinnie's singing has ruined my Sunday afternoon. That Irish ballad was shocking!

AuntieFox · 23/11/2019 16:27

Looking forward to tonight ...only one more week to the final 😊

Raahh · 23/11/2019 16:50

It has been mercifully short, reallyGrin. And at the same time, feels like it has been on a while.

To re-cap- we are left with

Megan McKenna.
Vinnie Jones,
Jenny Ryan.
V5
Max & Harvey
Tr Star

Louis Tomlinson will be performing his new single. That's nice.

and it starts earlier this week than it has been doing

at 7.40pm

dillite · 23/11/2019 17:28

Starting earlier. Woo hoo? Means we can get it out of the way quicker I suppose. Are we getting a new thread, raahh?

OP posts:
Raahh · 23/11/2019 17:32

Should we have a new one for the semi final?- I mean, we might get excited and talk a lot Grin

Plus, people might miss the early start time. Which would be terrible, obviously. Grin

I will be back with a link ....

FadingStar · 23/11/2019 17:40

Last week was an absolute farce....Cowell pretty much humiliated Jones. So arrogant. Jones can't sing and should have been allowed to leave.

Raahh · 23/11/2019 17:40

NEW THREAD***

Raahh · 23/11/2019 17:42

Fading I agree. I think he very genuinley wanted to leave- I've not been a fan of his style, but he had clearly given it as much as he wanted to.
Usually I would say things like that were a set up, but Simon's pissed -off ness at Vinnie trying to take over (despite all the rule changes Cowell has made), was very real.

Raahh · 23/11/2019 17:42

(At least it looked it to me- but to be honest- Simon always looks a bit cross Grin).

FadingStar · 23/11/2019 17:45

Yes Raahh he looked mad as hell. There's a way of saying things and for Jones to be slapped down on TV when he was only trying to be nice and supportive to Kevin made for horrible viewing. Cowell couldn't being relegated that way.

I'll join you on the new thread!

FadingStar · 23/11/2019 17:46

Oops couldn't stand!!!
