Fantastic stuff - far better than I expected - and just about matching up to the parody of a reality talent show ITV showed last night.

Loved the Waterfalls, the super heroes and R Wayne trying to get off the stage.


It'll be interesting to see how this rates tomorrow - you never know with C4. It could be ridiculously low or their highest rated programme of the year.

As others have said - so well observed and really spot on.

It goes to show how formulaic these type of programmes can become, although of course it's much more of an X Factor swipe than any other reality show but there's tinges of other ridiculous reality TV concepts.

Star of the show for me HAS to be Foxy - his lines are superb. "Are you a thoroughbred though? Well a few good rides and a mucking out and you could just be."

The winning song is released to radio tomorrow and I expect it will do extremely well.

If Geraldine wins then the Daily Star will be crying "fix".

Rick Astley refusing to pick the woman off the floor made me cry.

The Winner's Song has everything a Simon Cowell-esque X-Factor sing normally does.... choir, key change, life-story.... brilliant!

Is it being filmed in Manchester? The studio seems to have the same depth as the Soapstar Superstar studio.

Everything is SO well observed - everything down to the camerawork. I'd love to know who wrote the winners' song as well!

Steve in Pudsey
allegedly Gary Barlow wrote or co wrote it

"we've had 37 million votes, but just six separate the two acts. Vote now, it will be the most important decision you ever make."

Very Happy
