Anyone watching this now on ITV1?

I must say, its more entertaining than DOI was this time last week!

Me!!! Bloody love a musical. I thought Judge Rinder did alright there, not bad at all.

I'm watching it.... Missed the start but have seen Jessica and Ranj... Fun to see these people doing something a bit unexpected... Was surprised that Jessica got full marks though...

Meredusoleil · 21/03/2021 19:28

The marks being awarded are well high imho. But they are all doing a good job for the first episode I reckon 👌🏼

I think they're being a bit generous with the marks - I suspect it's meant to be all positivity and niceness. Which is ok, why not. Good to watch something uplifting and sweet for a change.

Judge Rinder was great! 10's well deserved. I didn't think Jessica should have got all 10's though, didn't think she was a convincing Mama Morton.

I am. Getting a bit bored with it now tbh. I thought Rob and Ranj were the best. Bored with the first actress and the lady just on was a bit of a let down. Okay but not great.

I was in a show back in the early 1990s with Jessica. She was fabulous! Admittedly she hasn't done much musical theatre since then but I thought she did great. You could just tell even back then that she was destined for great things and she was just really lovely to work with.

And Jessica - if you're reading this. I hope you now peel your prawns before eating them. Pizza Express, Leeds 1992 Grin

Are there more episodes? I got the impression it was a one off. I wasn't too keen on Dr Ranj - he did give it a good go, but the song was way too big for him. Kudos for giving it his all though.

Zandathepanda · 21/03/2021 19:35

The Eastenders lady was the best yet. Obviously the hardest number and choreography but gets lower scores than the Moulin Rouge guy and Caberet??
Weird marking by the judges.

As ever, I'm late to the party.
I like to make an entrance😉
Just started watching on catch up.
Rob Rinder gave me goose bumps - brilliant.

Really enjoying it.

Jessica was scored high but she was probably the most exposed. No massive show set and little backing singing to hide behind.

theliverpoolone · 21/03/2021 19:58

That was a good result!

Teaandakitkat · 21/03/2021 20:03

I was put off when Judge Rinder got full marks for the first song. It's not much of a competition when the first person (who was good but not earth-shatteringly amazing) gets 100%

Elderflower14 · 21/03/2021 20:15

Didn't enjoy Preston....

awaynboilyurheid · 21/03/2021 20:35

Didn’t enjoy Barney, he’s not got a lot of personality, the only things I’ve seen him in are because of his dad, do we think they are all trying for west end roles out of this?

Clawdy · 21/03/2021 20:53

Thought Barney was rather sweet, not really seen him before. And Rob Rinder's song was quite an easy one, so didn't think he deserved 3 tens.

Wingedharpy · 21/03/2021 22:07

I suppose, to be fair, regarding the scoring, the viewers don't really hear where they started from (Thank God!).
The judges will potentially have heard their early efforts, so that may influence scores.
As an entertainment show, I really enjoyed it and thought they made a great effort .
