The Voice UK (BBC1)

id like to be on both lists please - the i would will i am one and the get rid of bloody jesse one.
He's short like me so i think i should be near the top of the list ;)

oh, well if we're going for the shortest one gets him, how tall are you exactly? :hmm:
 
She is indeed lovely looking, but she could learn lessons off Will in how to sit still, stonelike, Godlike

and stop all the nonsense with her mouth

and over on ITV, we have Hungarians playing basketball on BGT

Her enthusiasm is what is cool about her! Why should she be a stony ice queen? Will is a dick anyway :p

She just have to be a stony ice queen. She just needs to sit on her hands occasionally or be tied to the chair to stop her wriggling

Excellent Saturday night tv.. love all the judges, but maybe there's a one series life expectancy for them before they get too samey. Love all the positivity (and hope someone gets a sore throat so the kiss from a rose man gets back in..). Hope the series stays as good in the next bit.. what happens next?
 
what happens next?
The preview at the end of the last episode showed us the celebs training their teams up and then have to reduce it from 10 down to 5. Two singers singing the same song at the same time and eliminating. Looks promising and less crocodile tears (a la cowell).
 
I hope they don't literally sing at the same time. What a cacophony.
Hopefully will be like those sing offs in Find Me a New Nancy etc where they sing a few lines each in turn.
 
i rather have enjoyed it. i like the fact that the contestants were invited - don't see why that's scandalous at all. It means that the nasty sneery elements of x factor etc ("let's all laugh at this delusional person") are bypassed. Plus, all the contestants (other than the out of tune girl they didn't really show Jessie choosing) are really good singers - again, unlike x factor.

Was astounded Kerry Eliis agreed to it, though. Kerry Ellis sang Elpheba in 'Wicked' in the west end, ffs - that's one of the hardest female parts in musical theatre. She may not be Ruthie Henshall, but as grinder paraphrased when i explained it to him, it's like someone with one michelin star turning up on Masterchef the Professionals. Wasn't surprised she or the other musical theatre guy didn't go through. Musical theatre is a very particular skill... doesn't mean you'll be any good in another style. Embarrassing for her though.

i can also declare my membership of team Will. Apart from anything else, he's both a performer, songwriter *and* a producer... which best equips him for the task in hand, surely. I'd have chosen him. Tom is an utter ledge and i adored him in this, but his team is a bit 'cruise ship singer'. The public might like them, so he might win, but i can't see worldwide success.

next week looks interesting - reserve judgement on how it will work, but very pleased to see the gorgeous Ana Matronic in the faces of the celeb helpers. I suppose the head-to-head on the same song format allows there to be an emphasis on THE VOICE (!!) as it invites direct comparison of voice.

I couldn't be arsed with the auditions again this week. Lots of posturing from the judges with singers who can all sing so there isnt really any tension for me.

I am looking forward to seeing how it works from next week. Hopefully a bit less judges and a bit more competition.
