They were funny - what a nicer house it would be if they were like that all the time

Liz: Some of it was funny but she doesn't have a very good delivery and I'm not that keen on the whole premise of ridiculing people as a talent.

Lee: I thought he had a good voice but the song seemed a bit short (6 lines?). I'm guessing they cut bits out!

Casey: I love Casey. Most glamour models seem to just strut their stuff looking provocative in th ese BB talent shows so it was nice to see Casey go for the send-up comedy, intead. Even though the jokes were Jim's I thought she delivered them well. I've seen quite a few videos of Casey being the foil in various comedy sketches so it seems like the sort of thing she has a knack for.

Dappy: I wasn't keen on his performance at all, to be honest. I don't think the song suited acapella, really.

Sam and Ollie: I thought it was great fun and obviously a lot of it was cut. To be able to produce a tear on cue was pretty impressive. I thought Ollie was more convincing that Sam (mainly because Sam was having trouble keeping a straight face). I don't think the win was undeserved

Yes, very true.

Yes, maybe she has a future outside glamour modelling. She has a possibly marketable girl-next-door aura which I think would appeal to a lot of people.

Liz was best in my opinion. It didn't all hit the mark but she is clever and reminded me again that when we do get to hear her talk she is really interesting.

Lee I couldn't understand a single word of that song. He's got an ok voice but expected more of him

Dappy better than I expected but he hadn't prepared anything specifically for the show and should have come last.

Sam and Ollie Maybe you had to be there. I didn't see any acting or improvisation from either of them. The bit about the shoes was cringeworthy and the single tear wasn't even in context.


casey I thought had good comic timing and with a good writer could be quite entertaining.

I liked all 3 judges, Lee, Liz and Ollie and Sam.

Ollie and Sam were brilliant.

Jim looked stupid giving them a 9 "for doing what they do anyway" what were Lee and Dappy doing?

I quite liked Lee's, just watched it again, its actually an alright little song to knock up.


I think these are the lyrics from what I hear.

Trying to survive, while they're watching you
And these games, games they make you play
change from day to day and someone's got to lose
Sometimes I feel, I've got too much to lose and times overdue
now I've found a friend in you....and we're ruled, ruled by the moon....

What is he singing about? The BB experience or Jasmine or both?

I don't like Linda but when her and Jim are on form it's brilliant entertainment. There is a weird warmth about them when they are being nice to each other. Like they could be really good m8s but are hating the fact and fighting it.

I think it's sad. (In the nice, old fashioned sense.). The single nicest thing about Jim (and I hope I haven't mis-read this) is that he really does understand what Linda is going through, and why she finds it so hard being in the same series as him, and doesn't hold it against her. When he apologised to her, and saw her looking properly ill and drained, and just said, "it's hard, isn't it?" and she just nodded, it felt as if the room was just full of a huge weight of sadness. When he bites peoples' heads off, he never really bites at her; of course he is morose when she bites at HIM, and who can blame him, but he treats her with an odd carefulness, as if he knows that luisa is just being bratty but Linda is not.

What a lovely post. I agree Wonkey.

There was something about that scenario when he said to Linda 'it's hard, isn't it' that was quite profound.

I would love to see them get along or at least be more tolerant, but I'm not holding my breath.

Always room for differences of opinion: http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1933073

It's no longer a mystery to me why the oldschool soap actors begrudge the scripted reality puppets their careers. They haven't paid their dues and they haven't learned their chops. Presumably the crossover Ollie and Sam followers will vote for them to win CBB based on their actual personalities? Which are what exactly? What they're showing in the house? Will they get votes based on their contribution to the series?



Jim carried the thing, no surprise professionally of course, which is why he was given the 'power', dear Luisa.

As I said in that other thread, if Lee hadn't crumbled on the night his song would have been easily the best thing. But he did crumble, the useless d!ck.

Most of it was ok, but nothing special, and it made for a relatively uninteresting show.

Casey though was nauseating, even worse than her still clinging to Lee.

Lee - His voice is so beautiful although he sounded nervous it's great he was able to write a song in only a few hours

Ollie & Sam - I loved this act they were hilarious , Ollie's such a good actor

Liz - Wasn't too fond of her critics on each housemates fashion but then it must not have been easy since she's a journalist.

Casey - She was very funny and made her glamour model act into a bit of comedy.

Dappy - He was okay quite good performing his single

My favourites were Lee , Sam & Ollie

Jasmine I'd say he called the song Ruled by the moon and she has a tattoo on her wrist which says that.

I wonder if all the HMs had the benefit of cue cards for their talent show acts.


Quote:
“An unfortunately timed shot from the camera runs on spin-off programme Bit On The Side at the weekend showed a crew member in the house alongside the celebs holding up cue cards.

The female task team member was seen holding up a sign (the contents of which were not shown) to Ollie Locke and Sam Faiers as they took part in Saturday night’s Talent Show...

“Ollie and Sam were taking part in an improvised reality scene and as part of this they were provided with storylines to react to.””
