I am a Yorkshire girl and my accent is fine thank you.

Apparently ours is one of the warmest accents, strangely in call centres we are not allowed to call customers 'love' which is very hard to do as it's in common usage in our sentences.
Well I am Yorkshire born and bred but it isn't in my sentences, nor do I appreciate it in those I speak to - I find it patronising.

it's the way we speak and yes I managed to not say it but others can't help it it's a term of endearment not patronising

I'm with you - and you will be glad of it as if you are only a size 12 you will look positively under nourished next to me.

It's as if he's trying to be a clone of JT. He is nowhere near as talented as Mr. Timberlake. It looked like a Stars In Their Eyes performance to me, but we'll wait and see what happens tomorrow.

I didn't think I knew the song that the Conways were singing, but I do. It's a really good choice for them actually. The beginning sounded great, but as others have said, it fell apart a bit. I wish them the best of luck for tomorrow, but I think they'll 100% be in the bottom two.
I actually thought Shayne was good - and am looking forward to seeing the whole thing tomorrow.

But the Conways - in my view that lead singer has a voice to break windows - doesn't anyone else cringe when she sings?

I'm a size 10 and naturally gorgeous (but it's not my fault, honest, I'm just made that way) but please I still want to join your woman band oh and I can't sing and I AM over 40 if that helps.
