Title: Any Dream Will Do
Post by: goldencup on May 07, 2007, 07:45:40 pm

Is anyone else watching this?  I've only just got into it but changed my mind completely after Saturday's edition.  I'm supporting Keith at the moment, even though he perhaps hasn't got quite the right 'look'.

Is this the show to find the new Joseph? If so Rob the builder has no chance.

I have watched it here and there but can't manage a whole programme because I find the production values so irritating.  I saw the end of last week's show and disagreed with the result so much I couldn't be bothered this week.

He would Lorri, I hadn't thought of that!  I can't decide whether to go to a 'Sing-a-longa-Joseph' in my area next month - it seems a bit of a waste to spend all that money just to sing along with a film but it might be fun.

Will you get dressed up in your coat of many colours GC?

I think it might be at the cleaners!  I hear that many people go in their school uniforms and that would be an even more frightening though.  Perhaps Bounty will be there?

I'm supporting Daniel.

Title: Any Dream Will Do
Post by: lorri on May 07, 2007, 11:12:57 pm

Daniel is my fave as well, i like Lee a lot and have seen him in phantom aqnd he is very good, but the show is suposed to be about finding an "unknown"

I disagree - the show gives unknown singers/actors the chance to be discovered, but the point is to find the right person for the role. If I was a struggling actor who had paid his dues as an understudy for years, I'd be pretty pissed off to see someone with no experience walk into a lead role because a competition was 'unknowns only'.

Post by: lorri on May 08, 2007, 12:14:24 am

well i would agree if it was not for ALW keep saying he wants a unique pop joseph,Lee is really good and i would never take that away from him, its just the way ALW insists he wants an unknown that makes me feel Lee will never win, so whats the point of letting him come this far 

Title: Any Dream Will Do
Post by: loulou on May 08, 2007, 12:38:34 am

I think an unknown should win not someone who has already had chances.

But that's what makes interesting television.  It wouldn't be the same to watch a load of experienced actors audition - they do that all the time.

Ones who have appeared professionally, yes I think so.

Of course but that's not what this show is about

Is it not about finding a nobody wannabe?

But have any of the people behind the show actually said that? For me, it's about finding the best talent - and if that means someone who's spent years as an understudy, being passed over for the leads in favour of bigger names, getting the chance to shine in front of millions of viewers, so be it.

I'd never thought of that! 

 

I was disgusted that when one of them was asked to name the colours of the coat, he couldn't do it.  I learnt them when I was 16 and have never forgotten (sad I know).

No, much much longer than that

Apparently if you look at a rainbow at a 36 degree angle you can see all the colours.

It was red and yellow and green and brown
And scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and grey
And purple and white and pink and orange
And red and yellow and green and brown and
Scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and grey
And purple and white and pink and orange
And blue

Actually it's wrong anyway, looking at it again.  You overlapped.

I think I should be on that show. I was Joseph in my school production of this musical and I still know all the words.

 

And it's not Rob the builder.....it's Bob The Builder.... and I'd vote for him, I like his cat.

Definitely Rob the builder.

Rob and Lewis were in the sing-off - Lewis was saved. I think it was the right decision. Rob's story made good TV, but Lewis has a more realistic chance of making a success of the part.

Is it Rob the builder who's just been voted out?

And which of them would look best in a loincloth?

When Jonathan Ross asked ALW if the rumour was true, I thought his reply was quite clever.  I won't post it here though.
