To be fair to Badger....reading that blog entry is 5 minutes of their life they won't get back!;)

Ah Percy..if ye seek to be a features journalist/critic of any merit ye will roll with the punches.;)

Perhaps it was an over long analysis of a programme that is over short in content/merit....ye needs to stretch yer talent not limit it mate.

Ashley hails fie Falkirk district and loads of cars here hev 'support Ashley' stickers...civic pride at it's cheapest!:roll:

You're right Karia...I roll with the brickbats...and welcome any input at all, at all.
Taped it tonight. going to watch it with my Lad later, he's up fot'weekend from the posher end of Leicestershire...Worthies and Speckled Hen chillin' in the fridge (just a bit)...he likes Nancy's too.... a fact which mildly surprised me.

That programme is excruciating. Watching it made me realise there is something I hate worse than Broadway show tunes - West End show tunes. There isn't a song in that entire "musical" that doesn't make me cringe.

last night's show was poor...almost wish I'd kept me gob shut...but never mind. Song choice last night was not good...

Karia PMd me about Percy's Blog and I had no idea what she was talking about so have just looked at it. That is not me and I'm surprised anyone could think I would post a comment like that. Obviously there are other Badgers in this world. Or maybe TBH's smiley was to indicate that he was joking?

Whatever - not guilty m'Lud - twasn't me, wasn't there :eek:. Thanks Karia for letting me know so I can clear my name.

I have to say I resent Graham Norton being called a Nancy on your blog, PT......maybe because I really am one...and I'm not male! :~(

Backed Sarah at 14/1 at the start so I am finding it difficult to control my excitement - she's 4/1 now. Cannot understand anyone fancying Jodie - she's too old and large. She should go tonight but definately won't. I am afraid tonight's eviction is Keisha. Hope that doesn't spoil any other Orger's viewing.;)

I have enjoyed this prog. but think that some of the comments have been a bit harsh, must say though that all of the Irish contestants are in a class of their own!

Tonight's bottom two will be Ashley(definately) and Jodie( hopefully). Sadly I think the Scot's girl will go unless the Scottish vote is strong enough to keep her in. Personally I'd love to see the back of Jodie - not literally, far too large.:)

Fellow Orgers - Please put your bottom two predictions on here before they start:confused

Please vote to keep Ashley in.....

Sorry Karia but Ashley has gone, gone,gone. She had lowest vote by some margin and I cannot see Andrew Lloyd Webber saving her again.
She'll be back along the street on Wednesday.[disgust]

I thought last nights prog a huge improvement on the week before.
Two of the women stood out for me ...Jessie and Sarah..the latter is improving week by week but the former seem to have it all, including naturally dark hair...always a bonus in my book..she has a refreshingly flawed face too, not out of place in Dickensian London...and of course an excellent singing voice. An hour passed smoothly, no heavy intellectual commitment required...early saturday evening telly at it's most harmless, I feel. However, I'd not contemplate a phone-vote on this one, not yet anyway.
I should be getting out more, but saving up for holidays.

That young lass Sarah should not have gone out tonight. I liked her manner,she could belt out a song and when she let her hair down she looked the part en all.
I enjoyed it...harmless hokum and a showcase for genuine talent. Let the mockers knock and the knockers mock....even Lloyd-Webbers facial gymnastics are growing on me....he seems like a decent gadge....and so much more endearing than Simon Cowell & Co.

I am afraid I had and it cost me £ 560. I deserve it, it seems impossible to predict the voting masses.:(

Fortunately I've managed to make a few quid before that financial disaster tonight - still can't believe the outcome. Sarah was a certainty for the finals with me. I am an idiot!!!!!:~(

I agree but not with the scottish voters for once !!!
Ashley is not Nancy as Keith from Dalkeith was not Joseph having said that he put up a good fight at the time to get to the final never to be heard of since although others have got parts in London Productions and Edinburgh Playhouse even he was the narrator !!!
Jessie or Sam for me
