Has no-one else noticed this - he sings FAISH instead of FACE etc. It really annoys me

some people find that quite sexy

Yes it has been said that he likes to shing shad shongs, but I dont find it annoying.

I do like him and he is my favourite but I would have thought that a bit of speech therapy could have sorted this out. I dont know though, maybe he cant help it

Hey, thats how I speak! Leave his lisp alone, I think it's lovely, heehee. And if he's anything like me, there might be nothing he can do about it.

his lisp is not relevent in my opinion he is now that daniel has left the only talented person left in this competition and his lisp should not affect his chances of winning

Ive only noticed his lisp in the last 2 weeks because people on here have commented on it.

But i really like it, i actually find lisps really sexy for some reason. Will Young has a lisp and it certainly hasnt done him any harm!

A lisp is not a stammer you can't just 'sort it out'. I find Lee's lisp quite enchanting and a lisp has never done Will Young any harm.

Ooo.. Rachey we posted at the same time! Great minds and all that.

I have never noticed Lee's lisp so it can't be that bad or maybe I have been captivated by his performances

Well QUITE.

I'm still trying to work out if it is actually a lisp, or a build up of spittle

Lee does seem to have a very 'moist' mouth.

I'll leave it there I think...lol

Oh yeah, did you see all the spit rain down when he did 'Do You Hear The People Sing?' Eww, but lovely =]

eewww i didnt see that....

Maybe we should get to him to say:

'Shut the shutters and sit in the shop' - very quickly.

If he wins lets hope the guys in the orchestra pits are armed with umbrellas.

Thats a bit mean! They should be honoured to come in to contact with his saliva!

hehehe now xxRachxx we both know there is a time and place to exchange bodily fluids - front row of the stalls in the Adelphi isn't one of them.

mmmm then again!!!!!

Plus wasn't there an episode of friends wher someone said spitting is the best way to pronunciate. such a professional!

I'll exchange with him anywhere!

Lol my friend and I were really taking the mickey out of him for the lisp this week

He doesn't do it all the time though. Watch "Pinball Wizard again". I'm pretty sure he sings "Soho" (as in "from Soho down to Brighton, I must have played them all") as opposed to "Shoho" lol, so maybe it is just a build up of saliva after all.

It not so much a lisp, but can't quite explain myself,

For example - when he sang Leave Right Now it went;

I SHEE you got your SHMILE back.....

With a lisp it would have been ;

I THEE you got your THMILE back

Or is it a different type of lisp? Any speech experts onboard?

Lee hasn't got a lisp.

I did Though it wasn't as spectacular as Keith's "amazin flying teardrop" during the climax of "Love is all around" - right on cue it literally jetisoned out of his right eye. Perfect it was


So have we established Lee doesn't in fact have a lisp and he is just a bit juicy ?

Craig always tips his head to the left when he hits a top note. My housemate thinks its endearing and makes him look earnest. I think he should see a chiropractor.

We have similar conversations about Lee's lisp.

Whatever Craig eats before he comes on stage is clearly far too lip smacking good!! Thats the one thing that annoys me about him, and after Zoe pointed it out, it became even more obvious!!

Must say i also didnt notice Lee's lisp till peeps on here were talking about it.
