How does murdering a Lady Gaga song, doing dodgy dramatic dancing and trying to make it funny count as talent? I didn't think it was good, I just thought it was over-rated and embarrasing.

Because the vocals were decent, and the acapella actually resembled the music of the song. I thought they were ace.

Lighten up! It was a bit of fun, and I thought they had pretty decent voices!

They do vary from year to year (being made up of current students - those who graduate tend to leave and new people are added each autumn) - I wasn't that impressed by the current batch though previous years have been very good.

Some good voices in there but not brilliant

I liked them, totally unexpected from them I thought they were going to sing some rather serious choral-type song (:yawn when I first saw them, but they were good fun really!

I liked them too - thought they were very different to the usual singing group!

I thought they were entertaining, but I have to agree that they were too much like the Arrangement

I quite liked them.

But they did remind me of The Warblers from Glee.

For entertainment, they're my favourite so far.

Wasn't crazy on Poker Face, but it was hilarious when they did Sexyback.

There is plenty of OOTB on YouTube. I seem to remember that they have a website and have released albums.

They were going long before Glee and the Warblers ever happened!

I quite enjoyed the Oxford boys act to be honest, it was different.
There has been little in the way of talent on the programme in the acts that have been aired so far.
But the silly acts are quite entertaining.
The confident little girl with the snake wrapped around her neck was OK, but she read out a poem that had been clearly written by a bitter vegan adult.
I also enjoyed the man who sang nursery rhymes and the woman with the little dog who howled.
I just hope that BGT doesn't follow it's usual path and end up with just singers and dancers in the final.

They won't make it to the live semi finals. Waste of time even showing their audition to be honest!
