Looking at the pictures of presenters and teachers, it looks like there's a new addition to the staff

DAVID

Is this Carrie's husband getting in on things too? It was both of them that did the vocal coaching on Pop Idol.

That's right, its David Grant, wife of Carrie. They're joint vocal coaches in this series.

Have any of you heard them sing together. They are brilliant. They did have a massive ( in size) band called United Colours of Sound but don't know if it's still going. I think they were once nominated for a MOBO for best gospel act.

Wife of Carrie???

Is Carrie a lesbian and her wife is called David (which actually means Davina - but to sound a bit less outrageous - afterall the red hair is outrageous enough - they thought they'd hid this fact and call her David - so people didn't twig)?

or is this just a mistype??

Yes, I've heard them (last year or 2001, cant remember now) They were excellent, that's speaking for myself though. Gospel music isn't everyones cup of tea.

Yeah. United Colours of Sound were one of the four finalists in this year's Song for Europe, but they didn't win the public vote on Sunday's live show.
