These impressions go right over my head, because I never know who they are supposed to be doing.

What time are they announcing who is third?

Gordon works out the rate you get back to allow for rich people, poor people, people on benefit etc etc averaged out I think. The taxman has enough to do without checking each 15p.

Hmmm hard to say I wasn't disappointed by Edith, and what angers me even more, is that it was by no fault of her own. I do think she is the best all rounder in the Academy and deserves to win more than the other two. Don't get me wrong, I think Adrian and Kim are very talented. Adrian's performances are fantastic, and Kim definitely has the best voice. But Edith has achieved a lot more in the FA, and I think she deserves some kind of recognition. Hard not to suspect some sort of fix, although it does seem very far-fetched, but nothing would surprise me with the BBC. But I think my hopes of Edith emerging as the winner are getting further and further away.

Don't tell me there wasn't a rehearsal. It just all seems very 'convenient' that it had to happen on her performance. The Sound crew etc should have been able to rectify the problem surely. They fixed it soon enough for Adrian.

'Convenient' sums it up very well, actually.

Oh and no surprises that Richard is the spoil sport of the night. Only one not wearing red...

Gahhh...

In about 10 minutes

Thanks Beee. Didn't know you were a fan.

Of course, why would I miss Ade slipping into Vyvyan mode?

I see mini Nick Rhodes and the boys are back

Sounds like they've been given Edith's mic as well!

I'm not really bothered who wins to be honest- I might see who goes out first then put about £2 on the person left who isn't Kim though. Whichever one that is I bet it would be a good earner considering how good her odds are! Then again I will prob lose the whole £2. Obv' as thats practically my life savings that would be disasterous.

Ear defenders for the whole nation...nah. I can't be nasty tonight - good on 'em for the Red Nose.

Steve.

Split your money, put a pound on each one, then give the winning to Comic Relief

I hope you're donating your winnings to Comic Relief... *looks stern*

But is that really a bad thing ?

Has anyone else who voted by text just then not got as many ring backs as messages sent? I only got 8 ring backs so far, and I did at least 20 texts. It's a fix!

lol! My winnings wouldn't be much if Kim won her odds are something like 5/9! Comic Relief is mainly for Africa right? I donate money to action aid everymonth too. I guess I could give my non winnings to them though!

*sticks hand up* Me The lines are always busy for these types of things when it's near the final.

I can't text so I couldn't tell you, but hopefully they will all register Will you be able to recoup your texts if they dont all register ?

60% goes to things in Africa, 40% to things in the UK

Ita about 60/40 or 70/30 to Africa/UK I think.

OK. cheers- I didn't know the exact percentage. Anyway results should be coming up soon....................... I have another page open so I can place a bet straight away before the odds are shortened after someone being kicked out!

God, Rowan Atkinson stopped being funny in about 1990 didn't he? :yawn:

I think it's funny, but then my sense of humour is very 90s, don't find many current comedians funny.

Gawd, Rachel Stevens is very orange, isn't she?

Must've been getting it on with Craig!
