Well, i think its the latter, i'm not American and leave out the U in everything, and is it really a brand name??

I know what you mean but I think the first is a brand/copyright thing.

well I just looked on dictionary.com and it does not list technicolour as a word, but it does list technicolor and it does list colour, so they're not just being biased against the British spellings.

Possibly a brand name then. Is that the word that Jan spelt wrong?

No Myleen hence the outrage..

Jan spelled 'embarrassed' incorrectly. She went for 'embarased'.

You can read up on Technicolor here - I always remember it from the early Disney films!

What outrage?

I don't understand why Ant & Dec keep saying this - what am I missing?

I think, as always, she took it very well. I know I'd be having a moan about it.

technicolor is a specific name for a film process.

I know this is a bit sad, but I couldn't believe when they said technicolor/our was without the u. So I looked in my dictionary and both spellings are present though for different meanings. Even so, I think Myleene should have been given that one. I would have been really annoyed so kudos to her for taking it so gracefully. THen again I think I would have passed on the stout anyway.

I was calling out "don't say the u", but to no avail.

I think they should have allowed both/either spelling as there is an american in camp and brits - surely its still the same word
