It's quite fitting that a protest song against Boris Johnson consists solely of a soundbite with no detail or substance. That's basically his whole career.

I don't see what the issue is, we live in a democracy and people have the right to political protest. The song is accurately conveying the mood of a considerable chunk of the nation during a very difficult time. I'm not sure why it's being compared to the Ding Dong / Thatcher situation - Boris is very much alive and wreaking havoc on people's lives right now. I don't recall there being this type of backlash to "Liar Liar" charting when Theresa May was PM or do these pathetic Tory sympathisers only start with their faux outrage when people are protesting against a white man 🧐

One Kiss vs. Hallucinate Don't Start Now vs. No Lie Levitating vs. Prisoner Be The One vs. Scared To Be Lonely Hotter Than Hell vs. Electricity Physical vs. New Rules The Physical and New Rules match up is brutal!

The Kunts for #1 <3

A stonking night for BBC One: Celebrity Mastermind: 6.5m Strictly Come Dancing: 11.6m (peak 13.2m) Michael McIntyre's The Wheel: 6.7m

2015 Adele – 25 449,870 And on her fifth week in the chart when she'd already sold 2m copies in the first 4 weeks. What an icon *.*

I think it shut down after that middle class woman who bought it off Tanya left (the one whose husband Lauren had an affair). And then eventually Sharon got Phil to buy the building for her to open a bar there.

Wasn't the original a TikTok version already :P

I think Dua will mostly likely do Don't Start Now as it's nominated in the big categories and maybe a section of Levitating which should be peaking in January once the Christmas freeze is over.

I still cannot believe he axed AND killed off both Ronnie & Roxy, then Steven and then John Yorke only months later decided to kill off Abi. All in the space of 12 months. All short-sighted deaths done purely for 'shock value' which have damaged the show long term.

:mellow: It seems they've also agreed a clause which guarantees it will air on Christmas Day otherwise they don't have to make it...words fail me.

She sounds so good in this!! :heart: Apparently 8 years since she last did a TV performance?! VwpCAzEiTzs

Officially #1 in France :cheeseblock:

If Only vs. Hallucinate Physical vs. Swan Song Fever vs. Electricity Be The One vs. IDGAF Un Dia (One Day) vs. Prisoner Lost In Your Light vs. No Lie Scared To Be Lonely vs. New Love Levitating vs. Sugar (Remix) Hotter Than Hell vs. Last Dance Homesick vs. One Kiss Don't Start Now vs. Blow Your Mind (Mwah) New Rules vs. Break My Heart Poor Break My Heart </3

France you can do it, join the club :cheeseblock:

It will 100% get recommissioned! A good test will be how well it holds up in January without a Strictly lead-in. The fact it's retained pretty much its entire launch audience for the following two episodes is a good sign. It's also got the benefit of effectively a 'second launch' in the middle of the Christmas Day schedule!

I really want to hate it, but I'm enjoying it! Honestly was in stitches at the messy, chaotic ending today. McIntyre really makes the show - it would be quite flat without him.

no body, no crime is such a highlight *.*

"willow" is amazing - both song and video work so well together <3 It's a definite step up from "cardigan"!

It really doesn't get more iconic than Peggy and that's down to Barbara (I mean, who remembers the original Peggy actress...). It's hard to think of another character that is so consistently quotable, memorable and synonymous with the show in the way Peggy / Barbara had become. Looking back at some of those iconic moments in Liam's post really makes you miss having a character like Peggy in the show.

This is the only way I can see why she would have married him. Otherwise it's just wtaf?!!? Marrying him and killing him to get all his wealth is more her style than simply battering him, so I can believe her involvement now. Maybe even Phil is in on it too?

Completely agreed! Anne was seriously underused. She's a brilliant character with a very capable actress but she barely featured apart from as a support really. They also completely brushed over her marriage breakdown. As you say, Margaret and The Queen Mother barely featured aside from the Margaret centric episode. The Queen Mother was basically relegated to a glorified extra :') The concentration on Charles and Diana just felt too soapy and routed in gossip. It also felt like a glaring omission to brush past so many major 80s political events when the first two series in particular dealt with those aspects so well.

Lizzo breaking records *.* when will your faves

If it is Sharon, it would be very out of character. We've seen time and time again Sharon likes to get revenge by hitting someone in the wallet not physically. Having said that, with the state of the writing, it probably will be Sharon.

This!!! tbh I'd take "who's shagging Kat" again over this :lol:
