It is in your opinion that Amanda voted correctly.
It is in my opinion that Amanda voted incorrectly.

And by the way, I only watched the boys performance on youtube, so my opinion was not influenced by a sob story.

I agree as well. And, I can't believe how disrespectful Simon was towards the bellringers with his 'back to planet earth' comment - I'm rapidly going off him I'm afraid.

I think they should have gone through as well.

Don't get me wrong..the boy dancer was decent...but there are plenty of other acts like him on the Royal Variety Show every year. There's never a lack of singers or dancers.

I'd much rather see acts like the bike bloke, the magicians and Gay & Alan going through..

....than singers and dancers which are ten a penny.

Does Simon Cowell know Her Majesty personally? How does he know she wouldn't like to listen to the bell ringers? The cheek of him to insinuate that you have to be alien to like them! I reckon the queen would prefer them to a prancing kid!

I don't particularly like Amanda Holden, but she was right in how she voted tonight. I'm just tired now of the same old same old, dancers, singers and even dog tricks, accompanied by the obligatory sob story. :yawn:

And Simon Cowell only knows about money spinning, he knows f**k all about talent!

Ok, rant over now!

Typical Simon. He's very narrow minded.

I appreciate Amanda for always embracing the weird and wonderful.

Bell Ringers for me. More entertaining than the boy.

Thought the winner was very good indeed.

Especially as they were in the top three/possibly top two.

Bell Ringers were considerably better. They look oddballs but were actually terrificly talented - played a better tune than the piano player from the first night.

My problem with the individual dancers, particularly the kid ones - and I'd include George Sampson who won with the same act repeted 3 times which was little more than jumping in a puddle - is that on any show there are normally half a dozen more impressive dancers who are young, but because they're within a group of 6-15 others a bit anonymous.

Either of the Bruce sisters for instance were on another level to the dancer tonight, although tbf he was considerably better than either of the kid acts that have won for the last two nights.

He shouldn't bill himself as a ballet dancer because he is pretty rubbish.

Also, no stage presence.

No, I don't but I didn't imply that those who voted for the prancing kid needed to be "brought back to earth", and as I'm sure HM has seen lots and lots of prancing kids as well as adults just like we all have at the "variety performance" I just thought she might like something different like hand bell ringing!
I never said she wouldn't like anything!

Come on. She voted for a man who balances buckets on his head. That's "correctly"?

The bell ringers are a joke. They are great at what they do, but what they do is crap.
The albino kid is much more intresting to watch and more talented. I wanted abyss to go through.

It was so arrogant for him to say he knows what the Queen would like to see.

Yes, Amanda said it because she was pointing out an act that was old musical hall style.

Simon looked an idiot tonight.

An albino person has pink eyes.

he doesnt have a sob story, ds forums was where everyone kept going on about his sob story, he went out there and performed and no one said anything about his 'sob story'?? so back off him already, he actually has talent which is more entertaining than the creepy bell ringers
