Yeah I know ANOTHER reality show and once again I am drawn in - promsied myself I wouldnt watch this one!
Who does everyone think will win? For me there are only 3 possible winners - Lee, Lewis or Daniel. If I were to pick I would go with Lewis as for me he looks the part and is a great performer. Time will no doubt tell though.

we've been watching the other side - the Grease one so can't really comment. I did see a couple of episodes and thought there were some who were heads and shoulders above the rest, but don't know their names.

I abandoned Grease in favour of Joseph as I prefer Joseph as a musical. Also not too keen on having to pick a couple in Grease, seems unfair if one of the partnership lets the other down.

I've wondered about that as well

perhaps they should have kept them single then paired up later in competition

I have to confess to loving the Joseph show even though the public sometimes votes the wrong person out in my opinion.I liked Seamus a lot-very talented and charismatic.I also thought Johndeep had a great voice and was quite moving when he sang,if a little camp at times.Lee and Daniel are now the front runners,but I reckon Keith could be the dark horse.Have checked out Grease a couple of times but all those ads drive me nuts and none of the contestants give Travolta a run for his money.

I'm a big fan of Lee, he comes across as the best all round performer, from singing, to conveying a song, the emotion etc, and even down to the way he moves around the stage. He negotiates those stairs better than all the others...just watch him next time! A natural born stage star. Lee to win. :D

I thought Seamus had a good voice too and shouldn't have gone quite so early in the comp. Chris B should have stayed last week too, thought that was a bad choice by ALW. :(

I agree I found the Grease show, bloody awful :blink: I think it was a very bad idea pairing them up so soon as well. I know they want to see the chemistry between the two, but unfortunately pairing them up so early can cause 'the best of a bad bunch' being eliminated because the girl was ok and the guy was not, or visa versa. :rolleyes:

After Saturday's show,I'm finding it harder to decide who should win.You're right that Lee is an obvious contender and certainly has the right looks for the role,but Keith's voice is impressing me more and more.I hadn't really rated Craig up until this week,but he sang so well on Saturday and was moving too.In my opinion,Lewis and Ben must be appealing to the teenage girls as I just can't think that either of them should win the part.

I too liked Seamus and was pretty surprised to see him go so early. Was a bit disappointed with his reaction to losing though - a little childish.
Keith has really come on vocally, he is pretty impressive, however I just don't see him as a Joseph.
I was glad to see the back of Chris B, could never see past those teeth I'm afraid :D
Lee is fab, I really like him and I think he deserves to do well.
Was surprised to see Lewis in the bottom 2 this week, I could really see him playing Joseph on the stage.
The one thing that irks me about this show is that they like to latch on to something and constantly go on about it - eg, Rob was the builder, Seamus was the oldest (hes only in his 30s!!), Lee has theatrical experience etc etc It's like they are trying to make you think certain things about them if you get what I mean.
Daniel is good but I find him slightly nauseating, he is just a bit naff for me!

well thank you :P

There is only one decent Lewis I know - Hamilton! :D

It has to be Lee. How awesome was he on Saturday, totally blew me away. Looks like he has a good bod too ;) :wub: :blush: which will help in the loin cloth scenes B)

It's true that Lewis is a winner in the eye candy department,but I'm not sure his voice or acting are strong enough.I know what you mean about Chris's 'Hollywood smile'.Do you think those teeth are real?!Of the remaining contenders, I think Lee is the obvious candidate-he has the best stage presence,looks and acting ability.Daniel has a good voice,but he's just not very charismatic.I'm really getting the feeling that Keith might end up winning though.You're right that Seamus looked pretty childish when he left the show,despite being so advanced in years!! :D

Haven't seen the show. I watched the Maria one because I love Sound of Music. Not so crazy abotu Jason and his Dreamcoat though.

Tell you what I did see that was so gaddammed awful ti was beyond belief. A Grease talent show! :yikes: The couples were so bad that they woudl tno get a summer job in Butlins! Truly diabolical show, just dire.

SB!! It's JOSEPH and his dreamcoat :tsk:

Agree with you about the 'Grease' show.Wouldn't pay West End prices to see any of them perform.Mind you Travolta and Olivia N-J weren't exactly great actors in that film and O.J.N couldn't dance particularly well either.Also watched 'Maria' show,but think Joseph one is more interesting as competition stronger.In 'M' Connie Fisher winning was more or less a foregone conclusion.Also I prefer watching men perform ;)

Yeah me too, funny that :P

I dont mind the show, its very camp and OTT, but then again it is musical-related roflmao

The one person i cant stand is that craig. You know when you just dont like someone instinctively? :lol: Also he pants when he sings, sounding like vanessa feltz trying to turn around :rolleyes: roflmao

Also that Lee- yuck, yuck, yuck. So fake and disingenuous. The sooner he goes, the sooner i stop sitting there watching him with absolute contempt :rolleyes:

It was Chris's dad who did his teeth - he's a dentist apparently! Think he might have gone slightly overboard!
Watched a bit of Grease on Sat, really not keen tho. Also I really don't like the judges on Grease - Joseph ones are much better :ok:

Meee-ooow! roflmao

Dl you really are fantastic at bitching, I reckon your talent is wasted and you must forge a career from it. Maybe start as the bitchy one in the reality talent show panel, I'd wath if you were on! :D

Oh yeah, I was mixing him up with Jason Donovan who I am sure had summat to do with it! :D

I agree, I dont; like Grease. The singing is bad and the acting isn't that good either. So seeing some cabaret style perfomances of it just makes it worse for me.

He did indeed play Joseph once :ok:

Yeah I heard he was quite good, despite his awful records.

See what you mean about the Grease judges-David Gest is a warning about the hazards of cosmetic surgery.He looks like an alien. :D

roflmao He's a nightmare, so full of himself. And he made some snide comments abotu Liza Minelli his ex too which were way below the belt. She is so talented comapred to that fool.

He was my 1st crush - surprise surprise! :P

Presume you mean Jason and not David Gest.Thought Saturday's show was great,but this time Lee definitely outshone them all.My favourite performance otherwise was Ben's which surprises me.Wasn't too bothered to see Daniel go even though he was a good singer.I know we shouldn't judge a book by its cover but he just wasn't sexy enough to have star quality imo.

Hi Fed. I agree Lee was in a league of his own (although I could be biased, coz he is my fave anyway)

Was suprised to see Daniel in the bottom two as he does have a very good voice, although maybe not the charisma some of the others have.

If next week show is viewers votes only :unsure: then I think Lewis will be out. He doesn't quite do it for me, and although I know whe shouldn't go too much on appearance, his hair was a vast improvement to previous weeks. Keith maybe one of the other faves, but to me he still looks far to young for the role, and it was interesting that Denise said he was a 'boy' when acting out the seduction scene with her. Mind you, was suprised to see Lee, being one of the pro's, giggling during his acting scene. :blink:

Hi Mo.I thought the whole Denise seduction thing was a bit pointless and I'm sure Lee would manage any real acting scene fine.I reckon Lewis has got the hots for Denise which is why she found him the best actor.I imagine that next Saturday it will be goodbye to Craig or Lewis.Keith is rather boyish and probably wouldn't look as good in a loin cloth as the others,but he does have a phenomenal voice and is good at expressing emotion.

I agree Keith has a fine voice, some weeks better than others. I actually thought Lee might have had the hots for Denise, which is why he crumbled a little in the seduction department. But you're right, it doesn't bear much relevance in the scheme of things!. Now Keith in a loin cloth, that does worry me....bless him. :blink:

Wish I'd follwed this now so as I coudl join in the banter.

Thought Lewis was gone on Sat when he was against Daniel, glad ALW saved him again, phew :ok: His hair did look much better and I really like him!! Think he needs to put in a great performance this week though otherwise it's curtains. Glad Daniel went, he was too Will Youngish for me and singing evergreen was just too much :ill:
Keith was disappointing, he is usually pretty good but didn't deliver on brown eyed girl. Ben is improving but theres something about him I don't like - he seems a bit cocky.
Craig has to go, it's a shame but he has no charisma and I can't believe he has lasted this long.
Lee is fantastic, always s good. You just wonder if he is too good and won't get the votes in the end.
Can't wait for this week :party:
As for the farce that is Grease - they are so scraping the barrel. Mixed up the couples which is totally unfair to those gone before and now next week they are performing on their own. I'd like to know what happened to those that bet on the winner as surely all bets must now be void?

okay, I don't follow these shows (because I don't get the Joseph one here in the states and the Grease one turns my stomach) but how does being able to sing Van Morrison ("Brown-Eyed Girl") have anything to do with being able to sing Lloyd Webber?

Why aren't they just singing '70-'90 musicals, primarily rock operas? There are enough of them to choose from, and some truely great songs.


:doh: and I almost forgot.... Hi Miz Van Pelt :D :hug: :hug:

and now I have "I Like Your Style" from Barnum stuck in my head

Hehe hi Tim :wave: They sing loads of different songs, not too often ones from musicals, I think it's to see how versatile they are and how they can act out the song. Some of the songs they have chosen have not been great though it has to be said.
On another note did anyone see David Gest lastnight and Malandra Burrows - Kathy from Emmerdale - so so wrong :wacko:

Don't watch Grease too much, as i reckon it's well below Josephs quality of talent....

I saw the sing off of Grease Saturday, and the wrong pair went DEFFO!

Saw end of Sunday's repeat and feel judges just wanted to save Alison.The contenders in Grease are mediocre at best.Neither their singing nor dancing is exceptional.

When and where is the repeat on Sunday?

I am sure I saw it listed a couple of times Sunday afternoon on ITV1 but that may only be if there is no motor sport on that afternoon.

Anyone watch Joseph this week? Lee was fab as usual :bow: and I thought Lewis did well this week, really glad the public voted him, hurray! Thought Craig deserved to go but then I've been thinking that for weeks.
