Over the rainbow-come watch with me

[schroeder]

Sophie has to be my Dorothy she just lights up the stage.

Missed the first few due to baby bedtime but my goodness, Jenny was so much better than last week Really beautiful, pure tone and control in her voice.

I am watching.

Don't like the kookie one.

Not keen on any really atm.

Hmmm. I rate Danielle generally but that was piss-poor. Lauren seems like she's already been on the stage for 20 years, not sure why she needs to be in this competition!

Lauren gurning through that one I thought. Danielle really dull for me.

Not sure of her name but the girl who sang 'Songbird' made me go all tingly.

Agree about Lauren's gurning.

Sod the contestants WTF is Charlotte Church wearing

Do NOT like that 'wash up' song.

Lauren does gurn rather too much, fabulous voice notwithstanding - she's a bit too professional.

notnowbernard, glad it's not just me I loves ya Char but fgs sort your clothes out.

Still can't understand why Emilie got saved as the wild card. She has great legs but not a great singer.

RIght - just what is this crap? First time i have seen it - never watched the grease one or the nancy one either. Are these girls supposed to be singing in tune? And dancing well?

Some are better than others.

what's with the boobtastic ginghma numbers? strange choice of dress for them I think. I think the wildcard one has to go, she's not got as good a voice as the rest of them, and frankly the gap in her teeth distracts me.

I like Jenny and Dani. I also agree with what Andrew said at the end about getting their innocence back. They are all great but none of them look like Dorothy.

I like Sophie too but she really needs to give something more, she seems a bit dead in her performance.

schroeder, give over, are you her mum? She was terrible. Out of tune and lifeless performance. Emilie was also bad. Lauren coms over as arrogant. I am very disturbed however, as I seem to agree with Charlotte Church on all of them.
The dresses are very interesting. I think the lord agrees with his comments about them being styled to be too sexy rather than look like Dorothy!

They look more like Cowgirl Hussies than Dorothy t me

I don't know their names - what did sophie sing?

Sophie sang 'That dont inpress me much'

impress

I was surprised by the styling comment - surely the Lord (or somebody) would have sat down and discussed the 'look' required at the start.
Mind you, I think at the BBC, there does tend to be an arrogant assumption that everyone there is the best at what they do, so the individual designers or technichians do as they see fit.
I don't know anyone's names but the first two sang excruciatingly badly, the wild card looked like a rabbit in the headlights and could barely sing or dance, poor love, the mature one is gorgeous but looks too old and sophis for Dorothy.
Who else? Oh, the 'songbird's' voice was exquisite, the kooky scouser looks the part and can sing, Lauren too stage school, stripy t-shirt girl had potential - can't remember what else.
Oh 'Barbie' - WTF? Quite liked her until he called her that.
Charlotte's dress hideous and she needs to stop peppering every sentence with 'like' - makes her sound like a thick Valleys girl.

Hmmm that was not impressive at all !

Its like watching paint dry-I want to see toto!

I think its because her surname is Barbe (pronounced Barbay) - maybe thats where the mix up came from.

I can't be the only one who just saw a few nipples in the first opening dance? lol

Is the Sunday show just filmed on Saturday after the Saturday show or is it a new Sunday show? I assume it is like SCD and all filmed on the Saturday. In which case why all the pretence that it isn't (hairstyle and outfit changes etc).

I thought it was live. Will pay attention and see if you can still call in.

They said at the beginning that the lines were 'now closed'. I just can't imagine people like AL-W committing his entire weekend to this.
