just started watching this a few weeks ago. sorry to see Ben go.

My pleasure Lula......pass me a Ben Love heart while Holza's not here

Any t-shirts left for me?

Where have you been....we've saved one specially

*hands dippykitty 'exclusive' Ben's Angels T-shirt*

I know....awful isn't it

I am sure there are bigger and better things for Ben Ellis in the future

I heard that

Aw, thank you! *puts it on*

I didn't feel up to coming on after the show last night, and I've had to work today (on a Sunday! ) But I'm here now!Glad to see the thread is still going strong!

Suits You dippykitty - give us a twirl

Lol, if only you could see it - orange is a clash with my hair!

*twirls anyway*

I was so sad that Ben didn't make the final - not because I thought he should win necessarily, but just because I felt he really deserved to be there to the end.

Think he has an incredible talent and huge charisma and stage presence - reckon this won't be the last we hear of him.

((((((Hugs all round))))))

Yay Jeanie. I for one hope I hear what he'll be doing and will be queueing up for tickets!

awww Jeanie yea we all believed that too. He is such a great little performer and really deserved to be in that final. Can't wait to hear what he's up to next. *gets in queue behind bluepenguin*

I'm joining the group hug. I'd rather have a Ben hug but there you go!!!

Hope Lee wins now. Can't imagine Keith or Lewis on the West End stage.

Me too

Me too.

Coooeeey Bluuuuuue.

Anyone seen blue? I need to know when the next BFA meeting is.

Sorry, had to pop and do a few non Ben things for a minute there.

I am back now and the meeting is in session!

So just how do we deal with this addiction to Ben??
I'm not sure I want to overcome it so I might just have to live with it!

*clears throat*

My name is Lula and I'm a Ben addict
She says whilst wearing her Ben t shirt, Go go go Ben badge, and holding on tightly to her Ben banner.

*Stands up after Lula has finished speaking*

My name is Amy and I'm another Ben addict.

*passes around Ben Love Hearts*

oops

*realises shouldn't be passing Ben Love Hearts around if we're addicted *

I am addicted to Ben.

I think we should just accept that we're addicted to Ben (Like the pun there LOL) and get on with it, we're all going to be wondering what he's up to and watching out for him so the addiction isn't going to go away any time soon

That was the first time i had watched any dream will do and sooo wanted ben to win

Dont like the rest of them bar keith but thats just because hes scottish

And to be honest i dont say any of the others playing josep

Mainly becase lewis is scary lookin keith doesnt look like a joseph (Think thats the nicest i can put it ) and the other guy looks like a bit of a tramp tbh lol

LOL !

Everyone still wearing their t-shirts?
Check out Zoe's comments on the BBC website, they all think Ben will be a big star!

Couldn't wear my T-Shirt to work (sorry) but will put it back on now I'm home.

Zoe's comments - grrrrrrrr! Sorry she's not making up to me with this. So it's all our fault he's gone out nothing to do with any of her remarks, or provocating him into speaking back to the panel!

BEN - sorry if you ever read this and actually like Zoe but she winds me up!

Hi Holza

He sang so beautifully in the duet with Keith I don't know how they could have any doubts about our boy
