It did with Diversity, SuBo, Stavros, Flawless et al. And from 2007-2009 we've also had Pottsy, Connie, George Sampson (who managed to annoy everyone apart from tweenie girls), little Hollie (cruel DSers loved insulting her believing she and her mum manipulated the show), Faryl, Escala, the dancing dogs (although they're back) etc. Those heady days are long gone I'm afraid!!

I dont get why everyone at ITV and all these shows and magazines go ****ing gaga at dogs doing tricks. Its not that big a deal. And once you've seen one you've seen them all tbh. And the guy singing, tbh i thought his voice wasent great and any average guitar player can play like that. Plus no disrespect to him but the simple fact is that unless he loses 7 stone and gets some work done on his face he will never have the look of a singer beyond a pub.
That's a plausible enough theory and I hope you are right!
So after one show you write off the whole series, Do you have the attention span of a goldfish? Give it time I bet there will be a few talking points in the new series just as there was in the old ones...
The talent show that I miss the most is "Stars in their eyes." That for me was way the most entertaining show of all.
Just my opinion but I don't think any of the talent shows today come anywhere near the likes of Opportunity Knocks and New Faces. Mind the standard of talent was a lot better back then imo.
Yeah sure, however, the 1st episode consisted of almost complete crap and only 2 notably decent acts. (This week's episode was slightly better). It used to be a decent amount of good acts, a couple average acts and then the majority funny/crap - not to the extreme of every single act - bar 2 - is crap
It has never averaged 18 million in the audition shows, not even close. And the only reason it managed that figure in the final was down to the single short 30 minute result show and utter ridiculous amounts of hype, not talent.
If a couple of dog acts, a few street dancers and a couple of middling singers is all it took for Britain's talent mine to run dry, we shouldn't be ****ing bothering at all.
This series surely cannot be any worse than last year's though. The talent level was just dire.
