I get that it is supposed to a joke or whatever but like others have said, slightly bad taste and seems almost ungrateful, after all, it's not like the X Factor had to do it? Great Ormond Street is an amazing cause, I hope they do them again next year.
I wouldn't say finding the video sick or unfunny makes anyone here a miserable s*d ... we all have different tastes in humour and obviously some people find it sick, offensive or unfunny .. let them have their opinions without insulting them just because you find it funny and they don't

As I said before.. grow a pair. If it isn't your taste in humour that's fine. But if you go around moaning about anything and everything you must live a very miserable and PG-13 life. If you ever watched Family Guy I am sure you would be sending in complaints by the dozen every episode. Just look at the thousands of complaints ofcom received after Rihanna and Christina's performances. I mean really.

you're making a sweeping judgement that just because I find the video in bad taste that I'm some sort of Mary Whitehouse and moan and complain about every non-pc thing .. there's such a thing as being allowed to find some things offensive and others not
for what it's worth, I found nothing wrong in either Rihanna or Christina's performances ... I'm an Adam Lambert fan so it would take a bit more than skimpy oufits and a bit of sexual innuendo in a performance to bother me :D .... but I don't really see anythng funny in parodying blasting someone's brains especially when the thing being parodied is a video for a charity single raising money for people and family's who may or may not have experienced that first hand ... just doesn't appeal to my sense of humour . doesn't make me part of the pc brigade and seeing as it was posted here on a discussion forum then I would have thought that people are entitled to post that they didn't realy like it without being called a miserable s*d

Does going around complaining about people finding this distasteful count towards being a miserable sod or is what you complain about exempt?
.... but I don't really see anythng funny in parodying blasting someone's brains especially when the thing being parodied is a video for a charity single raising money for people and family's who may or may not have experienced that first hand

My mother died of cancer - yet I still find the following joke funny:
What's black and eats minge?
Cervical cancer.
Cracks me up every time. Doesn't make me hate the disease any less though. But there is no point bitching every time someone takes the p*ss out of something.
This pc crap reminds me of when I was in school - kids saying stuff like 'oh, I shagged ya dad!' and then someone replyies 'but my dad's dead', as if they're saying it is okay to take the p*ss when they're still alive but should now be respected because they're dead.
Or perhaps how instead of calling someone 'overweight', you call them 'fat', and then they get all offended. They're just words. This is just a video. Stop looking for everything wrong in the world and lighten up a bit.

So you find it funny, Others would find it upsetting, Also people have different tolerance for words and for images.

perhaps it's just me though
I agree with you here. I didn't like it either...
For what it is, it is well done though.
I wouldn't call it funny at all.
Thought it was quite funny myself.
People have their knickers in a twist about a couple of girls with their knickers in a twist. I think it only cautious to fire a warning shot.

As I said - others need to grow a pair.
I found the soldier grief porn of the single much more distasteful, then the parody could have ever been.
