I just watched TOTP for the first time in ages, please tell me that the Choirboys haven't got a million pound contract (which is what I have heard).

I know its not the done thing to criticise the young, but that was horrendus. I know they are young, but no harmony, no stage presence whatsoever.

If I had a the money that has been ploughed into them, I could find 3 much more talented people than those.

My mother is always a sucker for acts like that, but she had to say "Their useless".

Was a horrible show alround, Robbie's performance actually made me think for the first time that the X factor winner has a chance of sustaining it.... He should have mimed, I am usually pleasantly surprised by his vocal's singing live - but he was awful on TOTP.

Well I haven't heard them, I'm sure they are not to my taste but a record company wouldn't invest a million pounds if they didn't think they were gonna sell records.

Have you just noticed? He's always been an average singer.

I know Robbie is no Tom Jones or anything, but I always think that as the "untalented" member of a boy band, his voice isn't too bad - and has improved immensely over the years. He normally sings live and I haven't ever gone to grab my ears...... I did today.

More than a few million pound contracts handed out to these young 'uns. Some boy called Joseph McManners has got some £2 million, 4 album deal.

His wretched rendition of Bright Eyes pops up every now and then on Classic FM's video channel.

Which could be very soon. That would be a waste of a million wouldn't it?
