Anyone watching it, I changed channel half way through last night, what's starting to grind on me is the judges seem to be playing to the stereotype, and ignoring potential talent, like the two Birds on the panel gibbering about how "Buff" the magician was, and all four judges commenting on the "Fitness" of the Burlesque Dance Troop, O.K those birds were "Fit", but this ain't a beauty completion, it's sposed to be a talent show.
BTW, who got through last night.

Re: Bgt

I have been half watching it Paul and think they are a mediocre lot this year.
I think the girl with the Violin is on tonight, she stood out at the auditions .

I was shocked that the girl who sang "Nella Fantasia" last night when asked didn't know who composed it (Ennio Morricone) neither did Simon Cowell . Not a bad performance but I think a really good voice coach could do wonders with her.

Re: Bgt

I've been recording them all so I can zap through all the ads and the backstage rubbish and the "before" clips of the contestants. I just want to see the acts, no interest whatsoever in the fillers. I loved the opera singer. There's no reason why Simon Cowell should have known the composer either, he's not exactly an operatic expert is he? I think a lot of the acts seem to forget that HM will be seeing the final winner, and would someone her age REALLY want to see half naked dancers, unintelligible ventriloquists or Chinese art students?

I don't know much about Amanda Holden but is she considered an expert on anything, or is she just eye candy for the older man? Just wondering.
