As usual with BGT the auditions were fairly amusing and decent family entertainment but as soon as you get to the live shows apart from the last act at the end of each show, 90% of all the other acts are car crash television
Pretty much this.
They are not particularly subtle when it comes to guiding the vote.
The choir were way ahead last night. The rest were absolute dogshit, especially the impressionist - awful.
The Mother and Son - slightly disturbing
Not just me who thought so then....

All of this. Absolute pony (I haven't watched the choir, so can't comment on them). Love him or hate him, you have to say that Simon speaks a lot of sense – even though he gets booed for it (all part of the pantomime, I guess?). I like BGT but some of the acts are so much better than the majority, that they end up looking a bit rubbish.
I reckon ITV is going to ruin (even more?) The Voice by going down the same road. At least with that all of the auditions were half decent.

The impressionist
Who does a Bear Grylls impression??
And also the mother son act felt a bit like Norman and Norma bates meets the Brady bunch, all very disturbing

The whole thing is a prearranged choreographed construct, from the 'supposedly first time off the cuff' auditions right on through. We're living in the Truman Show and mistaking it for real life. See also Adrian Durham ranting about stuff he doesn't actually believe in on Talksport, or TV shows such as Gogglebox showing people acting 'naturally' with a camera on them and still the thickos lap it up as genuine real life. We're one step removed from Orwell's 1984 for fark's ache!
That Room 101 is pretty shite too, I think.

Show went ahead EXACTLY as per REHEARSALS.
Boring bullshit.
I much prefer the early rounds where the real IDIOTS perform ....

Apparently they're doing Islands in the Stream next week.

The first misfire did this, but the one later, I am certain, with the benefit of playback and pausing frame by frame hit his stomach.
We didn’t really see the trick, but it was based on Russian Roulette. What should have happened was Alesha Dixon fired 4 at random. Then he was going to step away and the 5th would have been fired where he was standing.
The arrows were designed to only pierce polystyrene, not flesh.
The ''Cupidest Stunt'' as far as I can fathom is DJ Harvey for ditching Aleisha Dixon for Javine Hilton all those years ago when they Harvey and Javine were working on the Boney M musical
