    Yeah all blatantly well rehearsed. I bet ratings will dip a lot this week.

    It wasn't funny David Walliams being the only one to find the boring acts funny over and over again. I knew it was going to happen when that man came on stage. It's just so repetitive, obvious and staged.

    Of course the ratings will dip but you know full well why and its nothing to do with the standard of the show.

    I watch BGT as it does entertain me, but at the same time I wish it wasn't so staged and predictable.

    Think we all knew they told David to pick the joke act for the viewers, but I'd rather watch people with actual talent.

    The irony is that without all the canned audience cheers and contrived routines the show would likey be an even bigger hit!

    I would much rather just watch the acts and hear some real comments from the judges without any staged nonsense or sob storues.

    Me too. I guess they want to appeal to a certain audience who disengage their brains whilst staring at the box and dialing up numbers on the screen.

    I guess this is why The Voice got good ratings this years as at least theirs some genuineness about judges.

    The Walliams buzzer moment was so insulting to its audience intelligence.

    It's also patronising to Cristian who hasn't got a hope of going any further (unless the GBP get another Rage Against The Machine moment) It's a bit like laughing at the village idiot.

    Of course they will for reasons you know all too well. And it's nothing to do with the standard of the show.

    Every reality show - even The Voice - is manipulated and twisted at it's core. The producers have to make sure there is a mix of acts through to the lives so they're not too samey or predictable. They also might be wanting to hold some talented acts back for future series so the pool isn't drained in one series with only a small number getting to the final.

    They did well tonight to tie David pushing the buzzer in an overall storyline. I think it should have happened earlier in the show, though, with the bikers rounding it off so the programme finished on a more logical high.

    Eh? Am I missing something. I don't read the red tops. Is there some scandal going on?

    The ratings will go down cause anyone with any sense was watched the critical football match that has turned the Premier League title race spinning.

    Then we (as Liverpool fans) are all going to the pub now to celebrate.

    The show has had this side since series one. Indeed the show was far nastier before David became a judge (especially in the Simon/Amanda/Piers era).

    Last week the show aired later in the evening whereas tonight it started in broad daylight. Also, it had a higher 'lead in' from the previous programme (FA Cup football) that it will tonight (You've Been Framed).

    Who the hell gives a crap about football anyway?? Ravaging OTT marauders who think football is more important than anything in the whole world!!! Stereotypical MEN!!! >:(

    Anyone with any sense would watch light-hearted entertainment like BGT than a bunch of overgrown men kicking a ball on a pitch!!!

    BGT=Entertainment
    Football=Not Enternainment

    The Voice got marginally better rating then last year, the voice is also pretty patronizing, no one turns around for an act yet no one tells them that they were bad/out of tune they just say the would have turned around and give some stupid reason and it isnt genuine either, all the acts are pre selected and correct me if i am wrong was there not a joke act singing his own song this series?
    BGT is a bit of fun, a show that doesn't go on for more then it needs to and in terms of ratings it would pretty difficult to beat the biggest ratings of 2014 so far too

    I think the person who made that post was just having a bit of fun. I think you need to lighten up a bit.

    I don't see why you needed to have a go at men just because you don't like football.

    BGT is still better than the footie, which is basically just a bunch of madmen fighting over a small ball, while BGT is more fun, hilarious, entertaining and enjoyable, the last time I watched a football match I actually fell asleep for three hours and I slept when the game bloody ended.

    I'm not even having a go at men, i'm just saying that football is mostly associated with MEN.

    It is twitter though. Anything that is stupid to normal thinking people they find hilarious or brilliant.

    I thought it was a great decision to send him through, the guy is a natural born entertainer and the crowd loved him. Clearly the other judges were bias and wouldn't give him a chance so David had to put him through while he had the best chance.

    Maybe if you got somebody to explain to you what football is about and the rules then maybe you would get it more and not get bored when watching?
