If the crowd were any better then they could have stood a chance up there.

Surely there must have been one act that was decent out of all the ones they saw, same with Blackpool. What's the point going there if they're just going to show bad auditionees and then return to London for good ones?

They just booed and off off offed everybody who popped up on the stage. The Animal Magic thing was good fun but it was also cheesey, badly prepared and had no flow.

There must have decent ones out there but the amount of airtime they gave Glasgow says it all. They crowd must have been completely brutal.

Call me a cynic but, out of 3000+ people that turned up - was that really the best there was? Or could it possibly be judicious editing as an excuse to keep it "England's Got Talent"?

As to the crowd - I thought the Glasgow response of "Cheerio, Cheerio, Cheerio" was no worse than the chants of "Off Off Off" that happens elsewhere. (To be honest the chants accompanied by the waving was more entertaining than the acts!!)

But you didn't hear, well I haven't heard off off off that much at other venues or even heard it at all. The Glasgow crowd appeared to have hated everything that went on the stage.

I have heard the crowd chant off off off in every episode shown so far and not just once either! Glasgow wasnt shown for long and I'm guessing they must have put through some acts, they couldnt all have been bad!

Glasgow was the only venue where they said and the contestants said the crowd were brutal, unlike anywhere else.

I haven't heard off off every episode and I have watched them all. I wouldn't watch the programme if all it was, was a crowd of people telling people to get off the stage, every week. It's the reason why I didn't watch last Summer's because that's all I saw.

Just like the other cities already featured Glasgow will feature again in the other remaining audition shows

Typical piss poor job by an English network as usual. 5 minutes lip service to the Scottish auditions, the usual 50 or so clips of people in tartan and bagpipes, and to be honest, they just don't care

Scotland should tell them where to go next year, and shun the tour too, which can funnily enough manage to go to more venues than they can be bothered for the auditions.

Let it be called Patronising English TV Network W****rs Have Talent from next year if they want!

I have watched them all this year and it usually comes up at least once because theres always one act or two or three the audience doesnt like! And lately it seems we are getting more bad acts than good acts!

But were the people that came to the audition with bagpipes and tartan Scottish or English?

OK, I'll agree with that but I do think it was more so at Glasgow.

I'm pretty glad at what they did in Glasgow, We all saw what happened when a cringingly awful scot won the X Factor this year.

You can only drink so much at the weekend, and the wife watches a huge amount of poor tv!!

They have put through a singing duet from Blackpool and the Animal act from Scotland - so at least each place has something for semifinals.
And there were very bad acts posted from everywhere.And booing crowd.
So, all is good.
