"That's us for another year"
Perhaps he's said it wrong but Paddy said for another year, and also said '07, where as last time he didn't same 'O5.
I was thinking, in late of Just Of The Two Of Us and SoapStar Superstar, could this FA be commissioned for next spring, and drop it's Comic Relief name? |

I don't think they will bring FA back. Shame but I really can't see it

2009 is "another year", just as 2008 is.
So he was correct. |

I think he meant 'over for another year', not 'we will be back in another year'.

They could do with giving the final a slot of its own. It was a non-event.

The BBC would be going back on it's word ("No more copycat shows") were it to return, so no.
I prefer X Factor to be honest. Ironic to see Kate Thornton mention FA tonight though... |

If the Comic Relief series comes back in 2009 someone needs to have the sense to beam it in live from the Academy rather than have another monumental anti-climax like that one. As the previous poster said. A total non-event. Waste of effort really.
Fame Academy isn't coming back as a regular series. Don't waste your time speculating. It just isn't. |

OK, so have the longer segmemts, scheduled at a specific time, with two songs, a proper lead-in (such as a quick review of the final session with the coaches etc), and in the final segment at the very least have a short awards ceremony and an opportunity for a few words (rather that a "blink & you've missed it" segment that really let down the whole of CFA, and the hard work that everyone had put in over the past 2 weeks).

Mossy, I suppose the only way to look at it positively is to say "well if it wasn't for Comic Relief day we wouldn't have had it anyway", but I know what you mean.

Yes, I accept what you say of course, but last night I actually walked away from the TV, and that was after watching every CFA programme nightly on BBC1 - it felt a total letdown, I was really hoping for a continuation of the "competition" rather than a short singing demonstration (as befits a "final").
It was almost as if we had the final on Thursday, with the final votes counted and announced on Friday. |

As the whole thing's supposed to be about raising money, that can only be a bonus.

It was too short and i preferred the FA stage better, the CR stage was smaller and it just felt silly they had to walk around on those catwalks or whatever you call them.
