I cannot stand the woman. Am I alone in this- she infuriates me and I particularly disliked her comments in deciding between Charlie and Strike.

What is her talent? Bedding Neil Morrisey and Les Dennis?

She's a successful actress. Wild At Heart was one of the best rated drama's so far this year.

I actually quite like her on the show and she looked great tonight... the botox seems to have worn in a bit cos she was looking a bit rough at first!

She annoyed me to start with, but I'm kinda getting used to her.

That's a bad sign for sure

The fact she's actually performed at the Royal Variety makes her very appropriate IMO. She's been in successful stage shows as well as being a TV actress. She's a performer where as Simon and Piers aren't.

I like her. She seems like a nice person; not afraid to criticise but she's not overly critical. She gets a lot of unjustified hate directed at her.

I don't mind her, but I reserve the right to refer to her as Looby Loo

I agree, Simon's the one who ought to be studied. He said he wanted to find a good non-singing act tonight, then opted for Charlie ahead of Strike.

Lol yes, Simon contradicts himself at times.

(Btw, reworded my post a bit since you quoted. I have a habit of posting too quick and then going back to edit. )

I really like Amanda. I think she is a good judge and also seems to really love doing the show.

I thought her comments about the sexy magic act were a bit rich coming from an adulteress.
Plus why does she have to wiggle her shoulders to the music? Infuriating ex-Blind Date desperado.

I don't mind her but some of her reactions seem really contrived and OTT, especially when she cries, but also when she's cross, like when she said "You're pants and it's no!" to Dominic.

I like Amanda. She gives criticism where needed but is rarely, if ever, too nasty. And as for her crying, I've cried at most of the acts she has! I think she seems like a nice enough person.

I took a dislike to her when she cheated on Les Dennis, but, as far as this show goes, I just get the feeling that she isn't really giving her own opinion, but, what she thinks the audience might like. She nearly always seems to agree with Piers Morgan. It seems to only be Simon Cowell that gives the honest opinions on this show. If Amanda started being more independant with her opinions and not just making decisions that she thinks the audience might like, then I might start taking to her a bit more.

Same here. I also like her because she is not Cowell

Amanda just does what Simon tells her to do and the same goes for Piers. It's all completely pre-orchestrated and puppeteered by Simon.

Is that why Simon went for Charlie tonight, but Amanda and Piers voted for Strike?
