What is the best sob story?

Beer

Kate and Gin - Gin's my only mate and the only mate I need

Escala - We're always behind the scenes and short dresses and masses of make up doesn't change that

Nemesis - We're talented enough to make multi-use of Bus Stations but our Bus hasn't come.

George Sampson - I represent the part of the country that Labour never cared about

Strike - We train so much and we are so angry that we have to become the male equivalent of Zoo and Nuts models

Andrew Johnston - I'm nervous. I'm bullied. I'm a little fat. I don't know where I am.

Cheeky Monkeys - In 10 years time we will return again as Strike if you don't pick us.

Signature - We've got a boring act that needs gimicks and trained professionals to make it look good - all we want to do is justify years of wanting to dance like Michael Jackson and raise our arms and shrug our shoulders to the music.

Andrew Muir - I want to be the Scottish Paulo Nutini because Plumbing is like Dustbin cleaning to me.

Faryl - I never learnt anything in my Maths Lesson

Someone mentioned something on another thread, apparently she had eaten rat poison.

That's just a shameless attempt at getting the sympathy vote it really is!

I hope neither him nor flipping Andrew win!!

Brilliant work Beer!

I actually quite like your posts Beer but I don't like the bee in your bonnet you have about Strike. They are obviously skillfill, fit (in the physical sense) and very good at what they do. Can't you just say they are not your cup of tea (as the cheeky monkeys aren't mine) and leave it at that?

Pretty please??

Sabotage!

The other acts' hotel rooms should be searched

I thought Beer's remarks about Strike were the best! And spot on too.

I'll have more respect for them tonight if they can complete their routine without taking their tops off.

I don't agree with the comments about Strike.

I'm not a female, I'm not a gay man, I just think that they SHOULD take their tops off.
It makes them look the part.
I don't want to see them in their practical judo jackets or whatever they wear. You know? Those baggy things with wide sleeves?

I want them to look the part. It's an entertainment show.
They're not in the gym, they're on an entertainment show being watched by millions.
You want them looking the part, not in Olympic style white training jackets.
It's about posing and looking good.
Are people really that prudish because they've got their tops off?

That was really cringeworthy, even for BGT's usual standards!

I thought he shot himself in the foot, but somehow he still got the vote!

I think they should cover up because they look really pale and my Hi Definition TV can't cope with the paleness. Also one of them has protruding love handles that would make the biggest of radar ears to shame.

It's not on at all.
