Does anyone else really start watching properly when the Lives start?

I can take or leave the auditions. Will watch if I'm in and there's nothing on the other channels that I prefer. Have watched this weekend but I think the show gets more exciting when the live shows start. Not too bothered for the judges houses and all that.

The auditions are my favourite bit.

I absolutely hate the auditions, always have and always will. I don't start watching until boot camp.

Live Shows are my favourite as most of the best performances are at that point.

Mine too. I do watch the lives, but enjoy the auditions more.

Agree entirely.

Completely the opposite, I switch off (over to strictly actually) when the lives start.

The auditions are the best bit - apart from this year - they're all too good. I want to see the rubbish ones making complete fools of themselves.

I mean, it honestly depends year to year on the series. I watch the full series, start to finish every year. However, I found that in recent series, certain stages of the competition became a drag. Series 11 didn't get exciting for me until the 6CC and Judges' Houses, and from there on out the live shows that series were some of the best that we've every seen. Last year, the auditions were awesome, but I found myself getting bored with Judges' Houses, and from there on out I found the live shows a bit repetitive and slow.

That's my only gripe about this series. Too many sensible people auditioning.

i only watch the first 2 weeks of auditions, as the potential winner (i.e. Producers' favourite) is being shown in it.

much as i hate 6-chairs challenge, i love a bit of drama & chaos lol.

then on to live shows.

How many live shows are there this year? Hopefully more than the shambles of last year.

I enjoy watching from Judges Houses the most but I don't mind the auditions. My least favourite parts are boot camp and the six seat challenge.

I love the live shows and glad they gone back to original 10 live shows this year, hated when they only did 7 shows last year. My least favourite part is the auditions process

I doñt always watch the live shows. Depends who is in it. If there's nobody I really like i dont bother. To often they have a lot of acts who look and sound the same. If they are a lot of bores I won't be watching.

I think for the last couple of series I haven't watched auditions or bootcamp.

I only watched the 6 chair because someone told me how ridiculous it was

Watched auditions this year but very well might skip it all now till 6 chair again.

I liked auditions when it all first started but it's all the same now.

Yes, last year was an absolute shambles and to blame it on the Rugby WC was pathetic.

I always like it when one of the "joke" acts gets through to the lives
