Day 12 - Britain's Got Talent (apparently!)

Saturday became another of those stay at home, doing sod all, kind of days.  I slept for several hours on and off and watched TV for the hours I was awake.  I even watched the final of Britain's Got Talent - which ended up being a complete waste of time.

I thought the top 3 acts were going to be Loveable Rogues, Ryan O'Shaughnessy and The Mend - based on their awesome talent of course.  Unfortunately, it seems the British public who voted for the winners are a little bit dumb.  The top 3 ended up being as follows:

3rd - Only Boys Aloud (15.8% of the vote)
2nd - Jonathan and Charlotte (25.8% of the vote)
1st - Ashleigh and Pudsey (39% of the vote)

Yes, a dog won the top prize of £500,000 and the chance to appear on this year's Royal Variety Performance - pathetic eh?  It really does baffle me how people can vote a dancing dog as the winner instead of a raw talent like The Loveable Rogues.  They have everything needed to succeed, all wrapped up and ready to go.  They write their own songs, they perform perfectly and with a little humour too - they basically entertain so much more than a stupid dog.

The dog will probably be remembered for a year or two, will most likely be retired in about 3 or 4 years and quite possibly dead in 5 or 6 years - what a great prospect for the future eh?  Jonathan and Charlotte are opera singers so their 2nd place is also a shock because opera is hardly popular music right?  Well the viewers must have been mostly dog lovers and opera fanatics for this final, ugh.  Only Boys Aloud are also opera singers - 140 teenage boys, singing boring songs that I personally would never listen to.

I really do wonder what this world is coming to at times, hahaha.  So anyway, that was my Saturday evening's entertainment - a big fat pile of rubbish.  Ended up doing my usual late night thing of sleeping for a couple of hours, then watching late night TV for a few hours and then falling asleep again sometime early in the morning!

James!
