Does anyone actually watch it? Or more to the point, will anyone admit to watching it? It makes big brother look like advanced university challenge.

You could have chubby brown and joe mcelderberry doing a duet of o sole mio for all the good it will do. Its a foregone conclusion - greece will get the sympathy vote and israel will come last cos they will have bombed iran.

:-D :-D :-D

A little inside story about Joe Mcelderberry.

His xmas album contained a rendition of Little Drummer Boy. I was at a venue where he was performing and was speaking to him afterwards just after xmas. I asked him (and the compere David Kid Jensen) if they knew what famous criminal trial that song had featured in.

Does anyone else know....?

:-) :-)

Moors murderers?????

Mum used to be a fan of old Humpo, I have memories of his crooning shattering the peace of a Sunday afternoon.... :-)

Bingo.

Poor little chap was mortified when I told him the circumstances. Don't think he's sung it since!
