The lack of any thread thus far probably answers my question, but I'm curious nonetheless: did anyone make it all the way through this? I made it as far as the first ad break before the level of my personal embarrassment squick (which was later sent into orbit by Amy Winehouse at Glastonbury) got too high.

I posted this in the sluChatroom thread: I am literally agog watching Who Dares Sings. Anyone want to throw peanuts in my mouth? No one came. I got as far as a man trying to sing I Believe In Can Fly, the emphasis being on try. It wasn't even as accomplished as that karaoke programme they used to have on Five with minor celebrities and Terri Dwyer. |

The one with Suggs and a pop monkey? Or did I just dream that?
I managed 1 song. It was just rubbish.

WAIT! This show is shit amazing!
OK, I didn't actually watch the whole thing, but I got as far as the "Pitch battle" bit and saw:
* De-neeese Van Outen hogging the camera during the singing bits, and always ensuring her singing outranks every-fucking-one else's.
* Ben Shepherd wearing something tight
* The general bonhomie of a hen night
* A soldier "play-gay" flirting with Ben Shepherd.
* De-neeeese Van Outen's hands all over said soldier.
* De-neeeeeese Van Outen ignoring the female contestant, and homing in on that soldier.
* De-neeeeeeeese Van Outen wearing a Primark knock-off silver diva dress. Ani Lorak nor Charlotte Perrelli she ain't.

I don't really understand this show, or how people do well or not. I mean, is it like Singstar and you get points based on your actual singing or is it just something shit like audience appreciation? I watched some of it a couple of weeks back and was at a loss trying to understand the actual game part. Then again, I was agog at all of the audience going an seemingly identical "auntie bop" to "Don't You Want Me?"
I prefer "Don't Forget The Lyrics" actually. Just because I believe it's one of the few games on TV that i'd be REALLY good at. Providing the categories included "Eurovision", "Eighties" , "Britpop", "ABBA", "ShaniaTwain'sThatDon'tImpressMeMuch" and "Somehow brilliant kiddie pop made in and around 1998 that you know far too many of the words to."

How exactly does the scoring system for this show work? We were watching it at my old folks' house last night and my Dad - a physicist - was totally discombulated with the mathematics. Me and my mum were too busy speculating about Van Outen's 'bump' to notice though.
