I think lou meant camel toe.  If you go to google images and type in the words 'camel toe', you'll soon know what it is.  I don't like to post a link Embarrassed


O-K-A-Y. Message received and understood.  I had already Googled Camels foot and just got pictures of camel's feet.  Wish I had have watched the prog now!  LOL

I am totally in the dark.
 

Who thinks the whole thing is a fix? How come Simon is hanging on to his acts even though they are cleary not as good as the other acts that have been shoved? Is public judgement really that bad?

Logger was correct. I did mean camels toe.LOL i am gutted Beverley was voted off before that group of girls who cannot sing. their lead singer Phoebe should be put through on her own as she certainly doesn't need the other 4 with her.

I think the voting this year has been very different due to the no  text vote rule after all the phone rip offs , not so many teen text votes dictating the outcome.

Clap I agree. I didn't think Nikki sang as well as Beverley on Saturday and yet she wasn't in the bottom two.

The problem is that Louis keeps being tough on the Valium Twins, so they get the sympathy vote. He should know better - last year when he had those naff Scottish brothers in exactly the same thing happened because Simon kept slating them.

But they deserve it! They're like Pollyanna meets Bucks Fizz. It's sickening to watch them. If they get to the final two acts, there's not justice.
 

It should have been a Nikki/Beverley final.  Even little Alisha who went a few weeks ago was a better act than the terrible two.

 

What do you all think of Rydian?

I didn't like Rydian at first but he grew on me. I think he will probably make it into the final.

I completely agree - but unfortunately a hell of a lot of people out there don't want to hear anything other than 'you were wonderful!' from the judges and will boo regardless of how accurate the criticism is.

I think that often, Simon's evaluation is spot on but wih these two I think he just has his eye on the dollars he can make. The little kids will love them and the old dears will love them so they're worth a lot of dosh to him.

Well, tonight I finally worked out who Same Difference reminds me of - Dick Van Dyke and Mary Poppins 45 years ago!
 

Niki was fantastic again. She should win.

Anyone watch the final? Leon won, Rhydian second.
I had to leave the room when Same Difference sang with Jason Donovan, it made me cringe too much.

I am SO glad Same Difference came third.
 

I would have preferred Rydian to win but I am reasonably happy with Leon. Some of his performances have been great but a good few were not at all good.

 

I would have preferred a Niki/Beverley/Rydian final.

I think Leon needed to win to get anywhere whereas Rydian will be a big star anyway. Same difference need to go jump off a cliff. I wanted to see Beverley  Leon and Rydian in the final
