If someone does get buzzed off I think it will be the singing dog act especially after how bad other dog acts have been

Dunno, they manage to stretch an hour of TV into 90minutes of time. Amazing how itv can do that.

Just cut one small ad break and there's room for Michael.

However, we do know that the popeye bloke will be buzzed off. How on earth he got through I haven't a clue

Noooooooo, not the dog, hope he gets through, over both dancers if necessary lol. Buddy and his owner Pippa definitely won't be worse than Popeye, hopefully if anyone, he will be buzzed,

There is just as much dross on tomorrow - they could have chosen 40 decent acts - let them do their own thing, the result would have been 10 best acts in the final.

Simon Cowell wants controversy over talent. The prize is an appearance on TRVP in front of the Queen - not a headlining act. This year is pretty substandard overall.

I do think this will probably be the case.

But to help us figure it out, does anyone remember what happened in terms of scheduling when Hollie Steel was allowed another slot? Was it a quicker contestant turnaround, less adverts, suspicious buzzing or...?

Surely it works on the same basis as when that little girl cried and was given a second go in the finale a few years back. Technically 9 'acts' were performed instead of 8?

I don't think anyone was buzzed of then either... so it can be done!

They deliberately chose Friday to have him appear, so it's very possible the producers put him on a night where they believe it's strongly likely an act will be cut short. If I had to pick one act who would almost certainly get buzzed, it would be Popeye. So it's kind of possible actually. Then again, if Mexican Mayhem didn't get buzzed off then nothing will IMO.

It can be done - I watched last nights entire show in less than an hour - including the results show. I watched all of them, skipped the ads, the beginning 10 minute filler of the OTT judges entrance and chat, skipped the 'how we got to the semi's' bit and just watched the acts and the judges comments. Watched Avril and the result all in less than an hour. There is so much filler in the show its unreal!!

Tonights show I wacthed between 8:50 and 9:35 and then watched the results show live - it's all filler so they can fit one more in easily!

BIB is a good call, I imagine that might get heavily sliced. I'm pretty sure there have been rare episodes of both BGT and XF, where the judges have been in their seats when it starts, because there's a lot to do. Or am I making that up?

Haha, not these days. I'm fairly sure that's something they've done in the past though, so I think the opening cafuffle is where they'll go first to make time. Ant and Dec probably won't get much of an intro. Maybe no recap of last night too.

Absolutely! Never watch anything live on ITV or Sky - always record on Sky+ allow for 15mins per hour then start watching ready with the 30x FF!

Channels like ITV and Sky have only themselves to blame for this - too many ads. Cut it down and it will not be worth the effort but the way it is now means I just FF the lot.

To add to the list is the terms and conditions for the phone voting. Dec normally gets to read this lot out and another candidate for the 30x FF. In fact when that starts you know there is an ad break next so just carry on with the 30x!

My big wish is that Sky introduce the skip forward button that is present with Freesat. There you can select the time frame meaning you just press FF 3x for 3 x minutes - easy!

It is the amount of insufferable adverts that take the time up as we know.
I don't even bother to watch the first half of the results show with all the recaps of the performances.
Tonight there is an extra performance and I do think the buzzer will be used on the popeye man and the singing dog.
And I hate that expression "see you in three." Advert breaks are never only three minutes long, more ike seven.

Michael Moral, the extra act tomorrow night. I was suggesting that producers may have put him on tonight because they think Popeye will be buzzed early.
