Hi, Rusty!
Yes, I think "The Voice" is popular , although I preferred the BBC 's version.
I do not like what ITV has done to the show since it transferred to that channel.
Unfortunately, the singer whom I liked the best in tonight's team did not make it through to the next round.
There is another session tomorrow evening!
Too much television! for me!
I do enjoy the show though!
There is a good rapport between the judges, which goes down well - and any criticism necessary is friendly and positive.
Yes, I know you like BGT!!
When does it come return?
I am going to make a coffee now.........

Good morning, Elle!
A bit cloudy and wet looking, here.
I agree about television watching.
I find it wearisome after half an hour!
BGT normally starts in April, but because The Voice is on ITV now, BGT is being broadcast later, probably starting in May.
Auditions started in January.
No changes to the panel of judges.

Good morning, Rusty!
It is nice here as yet, but rain is forecast for later.
On our next trip out, in the early afternoon, we also need to go to the Crematorium, with a couple of plants.
I think they are called patio roses.
Yes, I guess that "BGT" will soon follow on after the ending of "The Voice", but I do hate watching programmes on ITV - I cannot stand the advert breaks!
(and is it me, or do they get longer and longer?)
I have a free morning now in which to drink coffee, eat my apple and do the Everyman!
What are your plans for the day?

Hello, Elle!
Cloudy here!
No plans today.
What I do is, record BGT and watch it on Sunday morning.
That way I fast forward through ads and acts that do not appeal to me.

Hi, Rusty!
Yes, a good idea - and one that I always follow when practicable.
But on Saturday nights, for instance "The Voice" clashes with "Casualty" so I have to choose which to record and then watch the alternative .
My TV will only me to record one thing at a time, although I believe that newer models do allow multi recordings?
The only adverts I have ever liked (and watched) are those of "Nicole and Papa" , adverting the Renault Clio.
Those were very good!
Do you remember them?
The adverts told an ongoing story....!

Hello, Elle!
I liked "Nicole and Papa" very much!
Excellent ads!
I have an idea that my SkyBox lets me record more than one program simultaneously.
Not sure if I have ever done so, though?
Now, the rangers at the Loch are tweeting that ospreys have been seen in Perthshire, but not at Loch of the Lowes.
Must be at other nests, or still travelling North to Loch Garten or elsewhere.
Not long now, though!
