I wonder who will be the next leading lady ALW looks for in one of these programmes... or are people bored of this format now, with ALW feathering his own nest with the publicity/ticket sales these shows generate?

In one of the Sunday papers today, a TV reviewer wrote:: "I'm done with Dorothy, are you?" I'm OK about Toto but I'm no longer interested in paying for Andrew Lloyd-Webber to find a new star. There's a distinct lack of imagination in BBC Saturday nights.

After Nancy, Joseph and Maria, surely we can find something else to fill the schedules? The trouble with the Dorothys is that they all perform in the same style. The show is not uncovering raw talent, either, or a performer who has been overlooked. Please make this the last of its kind, BBC!"

I think this will be the last one.

I think they need to look for another leading man. The Joseph show was great.

i want them to look for another young leading lady ill be o;d enough next year!! I was only a mouth under this year, made me sad and i love watching the shows too

These shows have to have a limited life. If we continue like this forever the West End will just end up full of reality TV stars. Having said that, I like watching them so I can't decide whether another one would be a good thing or not.

I agree. There might be one more search for another leading man, but that would be the last of this type of show on BBC.

I'd like another for a leading lady, not sure I would bother so much about a man. I really enjoy the show despite all my rants about ALW.

Ahh how cruel! Only a month out. I would've defo voted for you if you got far enough! Well I would share my vote between you and Sophie of course

Haha, thanks I would have still voted for Sophie
