Yes I saw it whilst flicking, the group performance IIRC was about to begin and she started complaining that her mic wasn't working, actually it was her earpiece. They had to restart it but they hadn't have bothered really, it was weak.


Watched it yesterday (DVR-delayed) and wouldn't say she was complaining, so much as just asking for things to be sorted out and for it to start again.

It would have been less professional to continue with her microphone not working (or not being able to tell how what she was singing fitted). For those old enough to remember, it could have been a Eurovision Jemini moment....

According to the Scottish Daily Record, all the judges are to be replaced.

This is according to articles which quote a "BBC source". Both John de Mol and Danny Cohen have said in recent days that they very much want all the coaches back for next year. Anyway, I don't think they are the problem. Admittedly, the chemistry has gone from the live shows to a degree, but during the initial stages, the four of them together were a very good group indeed.

The same happened on X Factor, the new panel was fantastic during the auditions but it went badly wrong during the live shows and sucked all of the life out of the programme.

I think the papers are just trying to generate a bit of dramatic hype around the show. The BBC will want them back because they're big names on relatively low pay (in comparison to their X Factor/BGT counterparts), but the chances are they all won't return. Jessie quite clearly hates it, Tom thinks he's above it and Will is just bizarre and not in a good way. Someone posted on Twitter last week that The Voice is like an office where everyone has been made redundant and they're just working their notice. That sums it up perfectly.

Maybe there could move the series to run January - March, I also think there had to many big stars on as judges.

Isn't the reason Jessie J is so annoyed by it that it isn't actually all about The Voice? She was sold on the idea that this show would be different, that it wouldn't all be about choreography and what you look like. Since it went live, she seems to be in the same boat as the audience - seeing it morph into a BBC rip off of the X Factor.

I really dislike the way the judges remain standing once they've given a standing ovation whilst each of them gives their comments. It looks so stupid.

Advert for applications for next year's show. It would seem that Reggie and Holly are back from their comments. Not that I expected them to go - they've worked very well together.
