Looking forward to an annihilation of the Tories.

I don't know what they see themselves doing, as they're both in their 30s now, but "palatable hip-hop" is actually a pretty good description. I didn't care for the genre in general but I liked some of their stuff.

I thought Kim was a bit unfair towards Amy. Yes, she crossed a line, but she was being provoked and she's clearly a bit naive and inexperienced, compared to someone like herself.

The transphobic slur and, to a lesser extent, the restaurant hoodie thing, didn't put her in a good light. However, I don't think it'd be fair to condemn her for eternity because of it. It'd be a different matter if she still had a habit of it but that doesn't appear to be the case. I think it's possible to say that without defending the person's actions.

Is there a possibility of a mobile skin? I don't browse the forum on mobile that often but I think it'd make it slightly easier.

24 episode seasons has predominantly been a US thing I think. With their sitcoms for example, they have big writers rooms. Our sitcoms will have one or two. I tend to watch in the traditional way - as broadcast, unless there's a clash with something else.

I'm rooting for James & Betty now, though I'm really liking Alfie & Owen now too.

The whole "we deliberately send bad entries so we don't have to host" conspiracy is something I've never really understood. They have pumped a lot more support behind the entries since Sam. When was the last time a Eurovision entry got a performing spot on UK TV as big as Saturday Night Takeaway? Unless his vocals falter on the night (or the sound screws him over), I can't see why he can't finish in the top half.

I dunno, that sounds like she could have been joking? Even if she was, I can understand it being interpreted otherwise if she's not known for having that kind of persona.

Yeah, bit more gimmicky and silly acts yesterday, not as strong. But some good ones in there.

Lol. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/a...bestseller-list

Oh I really hope this is true. I can't take another 6 months of the Tories...

She's got a book out. :puke2:

She's really gone off the deep end. The fact she thinks that the establishment was against her (when she was Prime Minister) is one of many reasons why I can't take her seriously.

They've brought back Stars in their Eyes twice - first with Harry Hill in 2015 and then as 'Starstruck' with Olly Murs in 2022.

Harry Hill's TV Burp, though sadly would not happen.

I have no idea how this is going to perform for her. She was hot property at the time of her previous album with number one singles beforehand, but that's not really been the case this time, even in terms of top 10/20 hits.

Innocent was one of the best vocalists they've had on BGT, for me. Liked the woman doing the animal impressions too.

I think they should rush something out and put it on the various platforms, it'd be a good bit of extra publicity for the show if it does well.

Especially as it seems that for most artists, albums fall off dramatically in sales after the first week.

Loved it. Nice mix of the sublime and the silly. Happy with the two Golden Buzzers. I thought the impressionist was very good too. The goldfish guy was very daft but very Britain's Got Talent.

It's hard to think The Jeremy Kyle Show even ran till 2019 and they only got rid of it because they had a reason to. I mean, I get it. It was very successful for them in the ratings, but it was so out of step with how telly had moved on.

Yeah, even if they just do them for YouTube or whatever. It's nice to hear of behind the scenes stuff too. They like to look back at SuBo and Diversity (obviously as that year was another level) but there's so many other great acts too.

You've Been Framed were still making new episodes as recently as a few years ago, surprisingly. Some of Harry Hill's jokes during 'TV Burp' wouldn't fly now either, like the one here about Sian Lloyd.
