Bgt

[Chloe55]

Well, I will never watch BGT again. There were some fantastic acts on and the winner was an old man not worthy of the win. Disgusting.

[Mamyalynne]

Not worthy in what way?

[Chloe55]

He did not have talent.

[Arksided]

Better acts were on Mamya... and not down to sentiment.

[DTCwordfan]

each to their own....the toilet paper factor perhaps?

[MallyJ]

Who won? The Chelsea Pensioner??

[Mamyalynne]

You need to aim your disgust at those who awarded him enough votes to win.

Who did you vote for?

[Georgiesmum]

Im sure the Queen will enjoy seeing him.

[elliemay1]

No comparison between his voice and that of Mark Mc Mullan

[-Talbot-]

Let's be honest...he won primarily because he was an 89 year old former soldier.

I did call it on the other thread.

[elliemay1]

I agree Talbot. Not really fair on all the other more talented acts but I suppose it was a public vote.

[Mamyalynne]

I don't disagree with you Talbot especially given the destination of the next big gig.

What does rankle with me are terms like - not worthy or disgusting.

[jno]

you often get unexpected results when you invite the public to vote.

[-Talbot-]

Yeah, the OP is a bit strong and I can't grumble because I didn't vote for anyone.

[andres]

I'm no fan of BGT but give the man a break. . He has a strong voice for his age but tonight he was drowned out by all the background singers. But it was a public vote and as such we should abide by it.
To say 'old man not worthy of the win' is in itself ,disgusting.

[Georgiesmum]

What was clear to me was the audience loved him.

[Smowball]

Trying to word this correctly, but I thought that generally BGT was for acts/people looking to start a career in showbiz and a foot up on their path. This man is 89.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Gob-smacked. Good luck to the guy, but he wasn't the most talented performer, was he?

My choice was X.

[Smowball]

I used to watch this programme religiously but this year it’s plummeted in how is used to be and after the first episode I just switched odd.

[Mamyalynne]

Smow other shows offer recording contracts etc.

BGT is a monetary prize and an appearance at the Royal Variety.
