    For Emmerdale's 40th anniversary there are going to be 2 weddings (Katie & Chas), 2 births (one to Debbie & one to Jenny) and 1 death Who's going to die? Any ideas
  2. Here's an idea for a theme that should show who the real singer are: A NIGHT AT THE OPERA
  3. But she did come 3rd - the late Barry Gibb (who was a judge) actually put her first. I think it was more a case of her being expected to be safe so people just didn't bother voting. Her sing off song Faith Hill's - There You'll Be was brilliant. Also it is a song that is very dear to me.
  4. Along with Ella & Jade she should have been Top 3 not bottom. Only decent group this year is MK1 - all the lads are rubbish apart from Chris in the overs As for Ryland he's just a joke :puke2: :puke2:
  5. I fully agree with you - Carolynne is a brilliant singer. She was just as good when she was on Fame Academy 9 years ago. Will she be back to Emmerdale I wonder? I just can't understand how that cry baby nutcase survived - shows Nicole & Louis have no taste. Louis says he's entertaining - well he's not what I would call entertainment. The sooner he goes the better :puke2: :puke2:

    What do you predict - great comeback single For me she still sound miles better than Shitney and she's still a lot sexier too. 6cfCgLgiFDM
  7. Hopefully flop
  8. Loved their early stuff such as Pictures Of Matchstick Men - Ice In The Sun - Black Veils Of Meloncholy - Technicolour Dream - Make Me Stay A Bit Longer - Are You Growing Tired of My Love - Price Of Love - Down The Dustpipe - In My Chair. All their stuff up till late 1973 - I even like their music in the previous incarnations as Traffic Jam and Spectres. Later than 1971 the music was boring apart from the odd hit such as In The Army Now.

    Here's my top 6 as things stand right now 1. Carolynne Poole 2. Ella Henderson 3. Lucy Spraggan 4. MK1 5. Christopher Maloney 6. Melanie Masson Here's my least favourite from each Girls - Amy Mottram Boys - Rylan Clarke (by miles - what a cry baby) followed by Screachin' Jahmene Douglas- Actually don't like any this year but Rylan's the worst, he makes me cringe. Groups - Times Red Overs - Kye Sones

    I didn't know they had any :lol:

    That's because the pirates had no such thing as an official playlist. Well at least Radio Caroline, Radio London, Radio City and Radio 270 didn't.

    That was the BBC chart which was not the official chart at that time. The BBC only used the official chart from February 1969 So in fact we are both correct. The BBC chart was compiled as an average from all the magazine charts such as: Melody Maker, NME, Disc & Music Echo etc. The official chart was only published in Record Retailer (now Music Week) and Record Mirror it's non-trade sister magazine.

    On Sunday 30 September Radio 1 is 45 years old. Originally a BBC replacement for the pirate radio stations, although not as good as at this time it was subject to needle time and records were only aloud to be played for a certain time each day. The pirates broadcast records 24hours a day. Even now with the playlists it's still way behind what the pirates used to do. Their DJs had complete freedom as to what they played within their genres. You can see the Top 50 singles chart of that week - HERE You can listen to the launch of Radio 1 J13qNjP__CU
  14. Bad move Lewis - what have Mercedes achieved on track - one win in 3 years. Who do you think will take the now vacant Souber seat. I think it will be Guttierez as he's currently their reserve driver. I then think British GP2 driver James Collado should then become their reserve driver. I would have thought about Max Chilton but he's now Marrussia's reserve driver. What happens to Schumacher now - permanent retirement hopefully :w00t:

    My favourite memories: When we first got MTV in 1993 the first VJ I saw was gorgeous Marijne van der Vlugt. She was also singer in a band called Salad. I even remember the first video I saw was All That She Wants by Ace Of Base. This was long before it had a UK release. My favourite VJ was Simone Angel, she used to present Party Zone on Friday nights. Show was full of European techno & dance music plus interviews. I remember I always recorded it to watch during the week. Used to love the pants of her. :wub: :wub: :wub: In 2005 she married former Newcastle Utd. footballer Andy Hunt. They now live on Aruba and have two children together, named Lucas and Aidan http://www.worldcharts.co.uk/images/other/simone.jpg Here's a list of VJ's I remember & the shows they presented: Simone Angel - Party Zone, MTV Dance, Dance Floor Paul King - MTV News, Morning Mix, Hitlist UK, MTV's Greatest Hits. Ray Cokes - Most Wanted, X-Ray Vision, The Big Picture Pip Dann - Dial MTV, MTV at the Movies Rebecca de Ruvo - MTV Prime Eden - Euro Top 40, MTV Select, Dance Floor Chart Kristiane Backer - MTV's Coca-Cola Report, European Top 40, Awake on the Wild Side Steve Blame - MTV News Vanessa Warwick - Headbangers Ball (Rock show) Marijne van der Vlugt - The Pulse With Swatch, Post Modern Ingo - Morning Mix Carolyn Lilipaly - MTV News, MTV News at Night, Hitlist UK Lisa I'anson - MTV News, The Soul of MTV, Hitlist UK Downtown Julie Brown - Club MTV (broadcast from MTV USA) Enrico - Hangin' Out, Select MTV, Afternoon Mix And then there was Beavis & Butthead :blink: Used to love they way they played, not just UK & US videos but videos from all over Europe. Those were the days - MTV at its very best. It went absolute crap when they split it up.

    Surely Carolynne & Ella have to be in the live shows they are the best this year and have real talent, & maybe Lucy. Don't like any of the guys this year - this surely has to be the weakest category Only decent group is MK1

    This week is the first time i've watched since the first of the auditions shows. I boycotted them for only showing 5 complete auditions in a one hour show. All those back stories bore me to death. I wish they'd go back to the old system - just the judges & auditionees.

    Have you chucked your TV out yet - But I agree he's the worst of all the finalists - Another Johnny Robinson or Wagner - at least Louis can't pass him through from judges houses
  19. poppet15 posted a post in a topic in Television
    And my vote for the moment would deffo go to Carolyn Poole of the overs.

    Leona's first single for a while. Will she get a #1 with this? Where will it peak? D5U6CaNlyEQ

    Love Carolynne to go all the way & win this year :wub: Beautiful looks & a tremendous voice Apart from her auditioning last year she's no stranger to TV. In June this year she appeared in Emmerdale as Talia Brice girlfriend of Jake's dad & Alicia's ex-husband Justin in the story of Justin trying to have custody of Jake. Fame Academy In 2003, (under her maiden name Good) she appeared in the second series of the BBC's singing competition Fame Academy, in which she reached the final. A song she co-wrote with fellow contestants Alex Parks and James Fox titled "Not Your Average Kind of Girl", was included on Parks' 2003 debut album Introduction, which reached number 5 in the UK Top 40 Album charts and has since been classified double platinum in the UK, and gold in six other countries including Italy, Greece, Germany, and Australia.

    Shakira should have been on X-Factor USA instead of Shitney

    Not when it was just the judges & auditionees same as American Idol. The show was almost all auditions then.
  24. poppet15 posted a post in a topic in Television
    The whole audition shows are now a complete joke. Only 5 complete auditions again last night in a 1 hour show. All these back stories are a complete bore. Who cares about them, what we want to see are auditions. Since they started live auditions it is rubbish. :( I for one will not be watching until the bootcamp shows. No wonder the ratings have gone down the pan.
  25. Sylvia - Y Viva Espana - 1974 Original was by Samantha as Eviva Espana in 1971 but was in Flemish Here's the original ZWl18EuTRLk
