Hello, Elle!
I was but teasing about you swearing!
Let's hope Ash can help, as you are not the only one with reCaptcha problems.
So far, it's Libby and Charlie, and Ben Hart for me!

Hi, Rusty!
Oh my! only one more act to go in BGT!...
I like Ben Hart ( excellent! very slick!), the two youngsters Libby and Charlie, 4MG (although they need a bit more "polish") and of course the surprising "X"!
Who would have thought whom that would turn out to be?
What a surprising denouement!
But I also like (as I did in the Semi final) the comedian Kojo Anim....
I am not usually enamoured of comedians (apart from Jasper Carrot!) but I enjoyed Kojo!
For whom should I vote????

Hello, Elle!
My top 3 are Ben Hart, Libby and Charlie, and Kojo.
Great to see Ashley Banjo and Diversity again.
They are super!

Hi, Rusty!
I have voted for Kojo!
Now to await the results...…

Hello, Elle!
Well, the pensioner won!!!
A fine singer, but.....!
I was hoping Ben Hart would win.
Excellent magician and he came across as a fine young man.
So, that's it for another year!
They said there will be a competition later in the year for the previous champions and champions from around the world.
Sounds good!
At least we'll get to see Diversity again, and possibly Amira!

Hi, Rusty!
Well, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised by the result.......
But admirable though the gentleman surely is, I still think it a travesty that he should win, when there was such obvious talent there in the persons of Ben Hart, Kojo Anim, Libby and Charlie.... and Mark whatever- he-is-called, aka "X" !
(It was quite a revelation to see Mark again...he was Ant and Dec's Golden Buzzer act ........was it last year?)
It was somewhat an underhand move to put the Chelsea Pensioner on at the end, with such a build up, and Simon even remarking that he deserved to win!
I thoroughly enjoyed "Diversity"!
Brilliant!
Yes, the prospective new show sounds good.
I'm feeling a tad cheated, though, aren't you?

Hello, Elle!
My view is the standard of the show has dropped.
Last year we had Lost Voice Guy winning, and this year the Chelsea Pensioner winning.
I don't think for a moment the pensioner would have won had he been wearing ordinary clothes rather than his hospital uniform.
And we'll never hear from him again.
On the positive side, it was wonderful seeing Diversity again!
Now, they and Ashley certainly have talent!
The year they won, there was another excellent dance crew in the final, but I have forgotten what they were called.
I feel sorry for the likes of Kojo, Ben Hart, Libby and Charlie, losing out to the pensioner.
Britain does have talent.
It's a pity the public don't recognise it!

Good morning, Rusty!
It is a lovely day here.... fresher and cooler than yesterday.
Better walking weather!
I totally agree with you about BGT.
The elderly singer would not have won had he been wearing mufti...in fact, I doubt he would have even progressed to the Final.
And the sob stories that accompany many of the acts are just too much.... this is not the place for them.
The judges, audience, and viewers are not there to show how compassionate a nation we are, or to applaud the attention the contestants are giving to their dead or disabled relatives.
It may well be highly commendable, but the contestants are there to be judged on their talent..... not their caring capacity.
So acts only, no sob stuff background?
Yes, Ashley and Diversity are a great success story!
The Voice Kids UK is back next Saturday!

Good morning, Elle!
A fine day here with a strengthening breeze a-blowing!
Hope it keeps up!
Let's think positively about BGT and the very good acts that have graced the show.
Like Diversity, Ashleigh and Pudsey, etc, who had got there by talent and lots of hard work, and no sob stories!
Can you begin to imagine the hours and hours of practice Ashley and Diversity put in to earn their place on the show, not to mention the ingenuity of their routines.
You may have guessed that I'm a big fan of them!
I'll record the Voice Kids UK.

Hi, Rusty!
Diversity is the best act that I have seen come from the show.
Both that, and Ashleigh and Pudsey were before my time of watching, though...I have only seen Pudsey on YouTube.
I think the ones that shouldn't have won stick more in my mind........like Jules and her trio of dogs, when we all thought there was only one dog!
I still think she should have been stripped of her winnings!
The money should have gone to the runner up!
I would like to know what has happened to DVJ?
I wonder if the troupe is still together?
Yes, I shall be looking forward to The Voice Kids UK.
I believe that the original three coaches are still returning......Will.i.am, Pixie Lott and Danny Jones,...with the addition this time of a fourth coach - Jessie J, who was once a coach on the adult version.
Nearly lunch time, and I haven't yet had time even to look at my crossword!
Have you done yours?
