    I keep changing my mind.
    I love Stavros Flatley, the saxophonist and Flawless and Diversity.
    I think Susan Boyle will win though. I'm really not sure what to make of her but she did have some brain damage at birth which may explain her eccentricities. I thought she did a superb performance.

    Folks, it really does not matter if she won this trivial show. This about the exposure she got. She will be grabbed up by some agent. And she is off to make tons of money. So scoff as you will. The game with this show is exposure.

    Ok, went and you tubed this "Diversity" that won. Now quickly counting there are 10 dancers, with light show, and wires to place someone back in the group of 10 bodies dancing around. Compared to one, middle age women who people scoff at because she is not hip or sexy but on her own, by herself, one person, has a god given angel voice.
    And you call that competition??? LOL, LOL.

    I do think there are far too many of these sort of programmes on television now. I know they are "family entertainment" but what with Strictly Come Dancing, Britain's Got Talent, Dancing On Ice, Any Dream Will Do, Maria, X-Factor, I'ma Celebrity, Big Brother, (another series is about to start!!), we're swamped in them, in fact!

    I do have to wonder why ANYONE would want to be a reality TV "celebrity"? You get slatted by the press, manipulated by la Cowell and told how to dress, perform and where and when your 15 minutes of fame is up, dumped or hit the 3rd rate circuit of "rent a celebrity". Not to detract from the winner's last night, but the main winner will be Simon Cowell and the millions he'll make from them...and Ms Boyle...

    I also remember Kevin Spacey, the thoroughly excellent Artistic Director of The Old Vic complaining that the Beeb, paid for by TV licenses, were effectively sponsoring West End musicals by putting on shows such as Maria and Any Dream Will Do, but ignoring lesser known productions, which don't have the pulling power (or finances) as Lord Webber's efforts. A bit biased on their part?

    Stavros Flatly, not particularly talented compared to the other acts but probably the most entertaining of them all :)
