    No wait. What non ageist reasons move you to this opinion?

    Good grief no! Don't you realise that Bruce Forsyth is waiting in the wings if Tom leaves?

    Tom is the only one on the panel with a voice.

    It's not about 'ageism'.....it's about experience and knowledge, and Jones has more than six decades of that to share.

    Tom is my favourite - I love him. He knows everyone, his contacts book must be huge, just think of the help he can give his Team.

    You're ageist by this very comment.

    Tom Jones should stay. It's the others that come and go - so your argument is what exactly if it isn't ageist?

    He's the best judge on there, plus he doesn't make a fool of himself by showing off.

    That is like attacking God. Shame on you. He still has relevance by dint of the length and breadth of his career. His voice is still as strong as ever. Will.i.am is cute, good producer (I assume?) but he cannot sing.

    Why? Dont you think older people need to be catered for? I dont know how old you are but there are more older people in the UK than younger. And yes you are being agiest.

    It's only ageist if the reason for expulsion is age related. The OP gave no reasons, just set the troll lines and sat back.

    Well, whether you're ageist or not depends on your reason for wanting to get rid of him. If you want to get rid of him purely because he's older, that's ageist. If you have other reasons, stating them here would be a good idea so as not to get jumped on for being ageist ;)

    I think Tom Jones adds a touch of gravitas to the show.
