    OMG what is this bland load of pop shite that sounds like his balls haven't dropped yet but still got them caught in barbed wire?

    I think it's all about how you look now and sod all to do with the music.

    I think the synth players should dump the 'singer' and go instrumental.

    That seemed very odd, the filming is different, to me it looks like they sung that earlier & did not sing live at the time, it was probably filmed earlier in the evening.

    Years and Years were extremely disappointing. The leader singer sounds very, very good on the recorded version of the song, but I guess he's one of those that struggles when singing live.

    Bit odd that their album isn't out till June though. Surely the hype following their number 1 single will have died by then.

    I thought it was part of Harry & Paul's sketch until I realised it went on for too long.:blush:

    Tonight's show got better but the guests still didn't really gel and I wasn't really familiar with any of them

    Big red chair had some nutters again

    ''I was a king under your control'' sounds like one of those lyrics those 12 year olds wrote and all thought ''Ooooh, ooh yeah that's really smart and clever'' but in actual fact is one of those inane lyrics that doesn't really mean anything. I mean, was he a king under the control of someone else or a king alongside someone else who was in control?

    ...oh who cares, they're awful.

    Decent enough show tonight I thought. I had to pause it to go and watch that 'Maggie won't jump' video. Kudos to the woman for having a bit of backbone, and steadfastly refusing to do something ridiculous like that during an interview. Ask the current shower of politicians the same question and they'd be up like a shot offering to cartwheel around the room.

    It had those black bars on the top and bottom which looked really out of place. I think they do the same thing on the Jonathan Ross show with the musical performances.

    Kim Cattral has always annoyed me. She seems so fake to me.

    Watch her Who Do You Think You Are programme. Definitely not fake there, she was very kind and protective of her mother.

    But aren't guests meant to be fake on chat show programmes like Norton.

    That is what me and my OH said. They were good, the singer was dire.

    Hate his beard. He looks like Bob Mortimer when he appears as one half of Mulligan and O'Hare:

    I was disappointed that Norton didn't ask Stanley Tucci about Fortitude.

    "Who hardly anyone knows".

    I knew of pretty much every single guest that appeared on the last series before it aired. Graham still manages to rope in really famous guests, in fairness to him.
    Well I'd never heard of Stanley Tucci, so I suppose you have to be addicted to watching American imports on Sky.

    I agree although I saw years and years live when they supported Clean Bandit and the singer sounded a lot better then.

    It's a show I only watch if I like the guests. I hate how they sometimes plonk a random comedian on the end whose sole purpose is to come in with one or two witty lines.

    Murder One, in the mid-1990s, had a big impact when it was shown here on BBC2, and won him lots of fans.
