I stayed up to see the start of the live feed, as I was desperate to see Kevin's class, but we join them having singing warm ups.

I forgot when they have an early show, everything else is earlier too. Fingers crossed I shall see the exercise class tomorrow.

In the meantime, we have "Macaroni, Ravioli". Oh they have just been split into 2 groups and each group are learning a song that is different to the other. Will these be on the show, or shelved like the group song was yesterday night?

I will post a few bits here, but I must grab an hours sleep soon, or I shall fall asleep in the fruit and veg aisle when I go shopping.

David's group are singing Where Is The Love - Blackeyed Peas. The group is Edith, Gina, Dawn and Reggie.

I can hear Carrie's group in the background and I know the song, but for the life of me the title escapes me. I will add it, if it comes to me soon.

George Michael and aretha franklin "i knew you were waiting"

although they seem to have split, as dawn is singing...
ohh, what is this one?! it was sung by her who was in friends, what was she called?

Looks like they are doing their single tuition ...

Dawn - with Carrie - doing a Pretender's song .... So Special? Sounding good on this one.

chrissie hynde (sp) , pheww, i can stop thinking now!

Carrie's group went in to have choreography with Kevin. They weren't in there for very long before the 'Bing Bong Lady' was moving them on. Even Kevin was confused by it.

We then join David and Edith in the music room and she is learning "Enough is Enough" - Tina Arena (?). I am not very good at identifying songs, even when I like them. Edith's voice is still sounding quite croaky, but she hasn't let herself or us down at all, so I am sure she will do very well.

Now we are with Carrie and Dawn in the other music room. She is learning "Brass in Pocket" - Pretenders. The small bit I have heard so far, she will do very well. It suits her voice.

Ooooooooh some people. Morning everyone.

Dawn has this song nailed ... its sounding good. (whatever its called

Morning Mirage ...have you had any sleep yet?

Morning everyone else too

I am really going to listen out for the difference in rehersals today. Ade sounded brilliant yesterday in rehersal but (like Jon) had way too much echo on the mike which detracted from the sound in the actual performance.

I do wish David would get on with the tuition rather than do all this psychology stuff ...

Sleep? What's that? I will have a nap after C.F.A. and before The Farm starts. I will then fit another in after that, ready for BB.

Just as well there is no BTR !!

Awwwww I loved that series. Even when Jeff turned up and Jade was being a pain in the rear. The forums were great for venting and comical too. Maureen and Ricardo.........fabulous fun.

I know .....

Meanwhile back at the academy, David still continues to question Ade (rather than give him tuition) ...

I'm finding this chat with Ade really good. It's interesting to me that he is in real life the same basic character as he was in the Young Ones. What I mean (and can't describe very well) is that he kind of sways when he talks, exactly as he did in the programme, you just assume that people are acting, but that is his natural way of speaking.

Dawn in choreography with Kev

Does anyone else think that the song Ade is singing might be a tad too high for him?

I'm surprised at Kevin's knowledge of all these songs. He seems to know most of them pretty well.

I thought that & I fully expected his wife to call in & ask if he'd been castrated overnight!

Anyone having trouble with Freeview interactive? I can only get that Bungalow stuff so I've had to go to Sky but as soon as my son wakes up, he'll change it!
Mind, there's too much coverage of Dawn. She's an OK singer but not my favourite & I'd much rather go back to Ade or anyone else.

I think the song for Ade is doing him no favours at all - it was making my eyes water for him!

Dawn is sounded great.

Dawn seems to have this song pretty well nailed down, both vocally and the choreography ...

Sorry - I don't have freeview, just Sky so cannot help you.

Cheers anyway.

Does anyone else think that Nick is tone deaf? Maybe he thinks it sounds okay? Cos he doesn't appear to be doing it as a laugh.

Nick with Carrie now, "Ain't no sunshine"

A tough song and he needs all the help he can get.

A day or so ago, he says he really just wants to do the best he can do and get all the help he possibly can ....

That was a short lesson for Nick .... :??

Gina in with Carrie
Gina reckons she has lost what little voice she had.

Meanwhile Chris in with David who is telling him to find the energy in this song.

Anybody got a song list for today?

I'm hopeless with songs/titles.
The one that Gina is singing is a Macey Gray one ..(cry and I choke, I walk away and I stumble)
