Well Russellers, it's obvious that "Tactical" voting is happening, SO lets play them at their own game !!! Dialling finger on OVERTIME !!! Twisted Evil

Russell & Sian should win it without, BUT lets show them !!! Stuart Copland Evil or Very Mad

how many times have YOU seen Russell singing OPERA with a 300lb Diva ??? Don't think so !!
Should get his facts straight !!!

Russell was really hot tonight... it was wonderful stuff. He and Sian gelled together at last, and you could see they were enjoying themselves. Magnificent Russell Razz

Just watched that show, Russell was HOT, phew. Such a good song and dance they had together. Cool

rainy were you in the audience on night three, just watched that too, and the camera zoomed in on the audience and I thought one of the girls looked like you.

I'm just watching these episodes now. Russell seems to have an attitude Sad

I think the judges are judging their performances fine. I think the first performance was marked too low, but the others were quite justified. I think everyone (and Russell) is taking this too seriously and the judges aren't even slating them really. Just a few criticisms here and there. Don't expect flawless feedback. Saying he was just standing there is hardly calling him a bad performer. He was just saying. Sheesh.

Only half of our original line-up remain and this evening the pressure steps up a pace, as our duos not only perform in a style they haven't yet tried but also turn in an acoustic performance. [S]

How wonderful, our Russell and Sian are doing well. Love to be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday night.
This is one great thing that Russell has taken on, our hero to the rescue. CLAP...CLAP....CLAP. Very Happy

Seems like they came second place tonight.

Sian killed 'All I Ask Of You', though I don't blame her at all. What a stupid song to give her. Who decides their songs?! That song is for the soprano, could the musical that they chose get anymore operatic?! Sian is less than average as it is Sad

I'm glad they are doing well and Russell is being really supportive (though he should have recognised that Sian wouldn't have been able to do this).

Poor Russell he is working really heard but how ridiculous to have chosen that song for her. They did come 2nd and they seem really comfortable with each other but Russell seems uncomfortable with the whole thing I think and wishes he was somewhere else. Can't say I blame him actually as the whole show is beneath him! I know it's all for charity but Penny tonight was shocking and why did she suddenly break free when she knew she was going home. Bad form and a pity as I liked her before that (even though she can't sing!)

Poor Russell?! Did he choose that song?!

It's poor Sian, all around. There is no poor Russell about this, he is getting loads of publicity, especially with his CD is coming out soon. There are millions of viewers.

Then why does he look so uncomfortable - doesn't say much for him does it? Guess your right - all about Promoting his CD. Oh well, was just my opinion.

The best programme is on tonight of that type anyhow - Hope Stephan wins it !! Now that's a class show with no-one using it to promote anything!

Have a nice Saturday everyone.

When Russell was offered a chance to appear on the show he said no, he was too busy and it really wasn't his 'thing' anyway, but did agree to be a 'stand in' if they ran into problems.
Since Rick Astley's swift departure he was called in. Russell probably thought he'd never be needed, since he refused the show in the first place it may explain his obvious discomfort in the role. It isn't his 'thing'

Yes he is geting a lot of publicity, so is anyone on tv, radio, concerts, and doing appearances.
I say good luck to ALL the singers and celebrities on the show - they have worked so hard on what has been a really entertaining show, IT CERTAINLY HAS everyone talking Wink
