I thought the show was hilarious, very well made and written, and a brilliant twist to end the show. Couldn't help but notice the price on the small print kept increasing. Great to see the cameos, particularly seeing Rick Astley blurting out "s**t love" then trying to help the woman back on the chair. As for the old dears calling themselves the Sugababes, I wasn't sure if I should be having a cringe or dying in laughter.

That has to be the best TV I have seen in years! Cat Deely will NEVER work in kids TV again "**** SHUT UP!".
I expect the DVD'll be out soon, as it had loads of cross-channel promotion. Next piss-take will be the Big Brother-style thing on E4.
The single is already out in some Tesco late-night garages... only £1.99! Might go and get a copy tomorrow...
Not on iTunes yet...

The second time he mentioned that bit, he said, "Except in the Border, Tyne Tees, Grampian and Anglia regions!" Classic!

Absolutely top class stuff, so many laugh out loud moments. I loved the 'not in Border and Tyne Tees' line too 
. I hope it gets the high ratings it deserves.

Such a shame there isn't a More Britain's Got the Pop Factor and possibly a new Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice Extra on E4.
Thankfully though Geraldine's fate was left open to the imagination, so definately room for a spoof follow up documentary next year. Hopefully.

In the style of the Mark Park/Cheryl Avenue sketch from That Peter Kay Thing possibly.

I caught bits of it and it left me cold I'm afraid. It just felt a bit contrived and almost as if they'd spent too much time getting it to look the part but not enough on the writing. There were a few fairly good lines but nothing really laugh out loud
But then I've never really subscribed to the whole Peter Kay thing excpet for Pheonix Nights (which of course was a team effort)

It didn't work for me either - for the same reason.
Keenly observed, but not funny enough to call itself a parody.

I agree. There were some funny lines but they were few and far between. Yeah it looked good but I've seen other comedians take the piss out of X Factor better.
All The X Factor is is 4 talentless c**** telling other talentless c*** s they can't sing....with no irony whatsoever.
