Oh no, Declan slapping Ant's face, just as Eric Morecambe would do to Ernie Wise. It really bugs me that they are copying Eric and Ernie intentionally.

You complain too much, just watch and enjoy the show.

Ant and Dec are not Morecambe and Wise, they just need to stop copying them, they are fantastic when they are themselves, and not acting as Eric and Ernie.

Just my opinion, again I have to say this, to clarify. I am allowed to state my opinion.

Just because you've stated your opinion doesn't mean anyone has to agree with it.

A few seconds of slapstick: I thought it was a nice touch.

I totally agree with you, you do not have to agree with me, so why is it when you don't agree, I have to be slapped down and told off? I offer my opinion, to see who agrees or not, and that is free speech. My opinion. I have not insulted anyone, just felt this way, as I am a huge Morecambe and Wise fan.

If you disagree with me, I am 100% fine with that. No problem. I just hope we are allowed to disagree on here.

Trying to do Singalong Live over a remote link has been a bit of a disaster!

Looks like they've sent a camera crew for Singalong Live this time.

The first woman said the right word, albeit with a delay but apparently she got it wrong? Confused

It’s a real shame the live link items aren’t going well this week! Not sure if it’s a delay problem... but it just shows that you can’t rely on technology even in 2021!

There will be one day that technology will possibly turn against us humans and take over the planet.

That was odd as isn’t Singalong Live always over a video link anyway? So not sure why they had such a problem tonight but it made for a bit of a car crash. The first girl did actually get it right as well, just far too late and after humming most of the other words.

Singalong Live and Read My Lips are always done virtually, even in normal times.

The delay wasn’t the issue, it was just that the first women just mumbled about half the song rather than filling in the gap

I thought the whole point of Singalong Live was to get the missing word, not singing the whole song? She was reading the lyrics on a screen to the side and seemed out of breath, give her a chance at least.

Haha, I think you’re right! My Alexa gave me back chat the other day 😂

Presuming there was little to no delay, she was humming for a good 15 seconds before eventually getting the answer, it has to be within a reasonable time period of being asked to fill the gap.
