Many of you may have been following the hit TV show Last Choir Standing and will have seen the City of Bath Male Choir reach the final stages of the competition only to leave last week.
Since leaving it seems they have been inundated with messages of support and requests for appearances....
Comments have also flooded in on the programme's website including a message from Bath's Stephen Bowman, a member of the band Blake, who performed on the show last week.
He said on the website: "I just had to say how sad I was they didn't make it through. I thought they performed brilliantly throughout and were a massive credit to the city of Bath which has a long history of fine music and many other excellent choirs."

Bejing handover left band bewildered
It wasn't only the Chinese waxworks who were left scratching their heads after Great Britain's ultra-naff Olympic handover in Beijing.
The classical boy band Blake – who were booked to perform at last Sunday's handover celebrations in London – were similarly bewildered.
"The whole thing was entirely bizarre," says Stephen Bowman, the band's bass baritone. "I mean: Leona Lewis standing on top of that weird contraption, that double-decker bus, David Beckham kicking a football – it was awful.
"Trying to be surreal is OK when it comes to British comedy but it was a bit much at the Olympics. I hope we do better than that in 2012, otherwise it will just be embarrassing. We've got a hard act to follow."

There's a photo of Blake in this week's (30 Sep) Hello Magazine (page 34) as they attend the opening of the Buddha Bar in London.

There's also a picture of Blake (all looking rather dashing) at the Michael Robert's book launch at the D&G party in London.

Seems like it's been a fun week for the Blake guys! |
