a poor performance by Mediation in the Tipping Competition this week. no surprise to see Rachel in the bottom two and called that one no problem, and so nearly called Rikki too. but nearly doesn't cut it… my vote went to Miss Frank, a vote that cost me dearly – only 15 points and now in joint 21st place. not good enough at all.
bye Rikki, your eyebrow shall be missed (pic from ITV)
another awesome show though – highlights definitely being another comeback from another all-too wired pop icon, the birth of the Cheryl Cole Project / Army, another amazing performance from Joe, and then this…
Whoops, they did it again (pic from ITV)
what can you say other that genius, genius, genius. we all recall the all-too uncomfortable Same Difference performances… you remember – "I know they're just sister and brother but…" kind of thing. John and Edward have no such reserve – they not only don't avoid the "are they too close for brothers?" debate, but come smashing through the other side and do a full on love scene in the middle of the song.
they're brave, they're different, and above all they're entertaining and deserve to be there. Mrs Cole is talking nonsense when she says she can't believe that J&E are there and Rikki's gone; J&E leave us wondering how the hell they did that and – crucially – what the hell they're going to do next time. and that Cheryl, means votes. here's to the brothers keeping us entertained for a good few weeks yet.
here's that leader board…
