Britains Got Talent 2010 Episode 6 Review

Episode 6 of Britain’s Got Talent 2010 aired on Sunday the 23rd of May 2010. It had been moved from it’s usual Saturday night slot because of the Champions League Final on ITV1. Surely Britain’s Got Talent is more important than that?? We started off this weeks show in London again although it turned out to be one of those nights where we were all around the country! Amanda Holden was sporting a lovely blue double breasted petticoat tonight. The guys had their usual black suits and white shirts on.

The first act up was a Michael Jackson double act called Michael Fayombo Snr and Michael Fayombo Jnr. Yes a father and son combination. They basically just danced along in the style of Michael Jackson to one of his songs. I wasn’t too impressed but they got through, gold jackets and all. The dad was 38 and the son was 14 and off they go to the next round.

I think the next part was put in to annoy me. A breakdown of lots of dance acts who all got through. I’m going to go for it next year and do the Macarena to see if that’s enough to get me through. From what I’ve seen so far it would be. Three Bee were a Bollywood dance group who predictably danced along to the Slumdog Millionaire theme tune. Wow. But guess what? They got through. They did look pretty colourful however in their pink and orange outfits. Three Bee got through to the next round.

The next dance group was Starbust who were lots of kids dressed up in funny costumes. I think they got through because they were cute, basically a bunch of girls aged 9 to 13 dancing around the stage. Simon said they were like a dancing box of quality street and also said that they had to update their routines. The choreographer then came out on to the stage and Simon pretended he’d just been complimenting her. One of the little girls said they’d like to spend the prize money on upgrading the toilets of the dance hall they use as it was smelly which was pretty funny. They also got through.

Tyler Patterson was the last dance act on (thank God). I think they switched back to the Glasgow auditions without saying as this kid was Scottish and came on wearing a funny ear flap hat. Tyler Patterson was 9 and did some street dancing and of course he got through.

Back to the Birmingham auditions and Louis Walsh was filling for Simon again. Julie Watkins was on next and came on wearing a long red dress with white pearls. She was one of those people who come on moaning about how much they hate their job and want to be a star. I always wonder how awkward it is going back there on Monday when they fail miserable on stage. Julie Watkins will have to go back to her cleaner job in the police station anyway as she was pretty terrible and if I’m totally honest a little scary. She pulled all sorts of scary faces when she was singing and it was enough for judge Amanda Holden to label her as quite threatening and aggressive. Louis compared her to something from the Exorcist and unsurprisingly she didn’t get through.

David Loh was a 50 year old Chef who had decided to call himself the ‘Melon Man’. You know this isn’t going to go well right? Well it didn’t. His skill was carving things into melons. He carved what he claimed was a fish into one melon but it didn’t look like anything. He didn’t get through.

Dave Jay was a juggler who ate a lemon and egg while he was juggling. That was pretty much it. He didn’t get through either.

Dave Thompson was a 67 year old admin worker who claimed to be a stand up comedian. He told a joke about a woman with lipstick on her head and not being able to make her mind up. It bombed and he got buzzed off.

Neil Fullard restored some pride by giving an excellent rendition of Come Fly With Me. Neil Fullard is a 42 year old doorman who hadn’t sung in front of an audience before but he was good and got a standing ovation from the crowd. His doorman mates were supporting from the sides and were pretty funny hanging around with Ant and Dec. They had names like Simo and Flexi. Piers told him he has to improve his appearance and dress sense as well as his self confidence but complimented his voice. The other judges were in agreement and Neil Fullard got through.

Corey Sean was up next in a horrible yellow and black checked shirt with matching hat. We were getting one of the hard luck stories about how dance has saved him from his troubled life blah blah you know the drill. Anyway he came on stage and the cameras panned to the judges shocked faces. I thought it was because of his ugly shirt but no, he was actually a Beyonce impersonator. or Beyonce impershonist as he called it. He wore knee high black boots and a skin tight black cat suit. He danced around like an idiot to Single Ladies by Beyonce and unbelievably got through thanks to Louis and Amanda. He was terrible. Amanda asked about his boots and he told her got them in Primark for £12. I don’t understand the point of putting impersonators through either. You might end up with the real Beyonce playing in front of the queen so where exactly does an impersonator fit into this?

Back to Manchester with 50 year old accountant James Shields. He looked like an accountant with his neatly trimmed ginger hair, awful big specs straight from the 1980′s and stuffy dress sense. Simon seemed to give him a bit of a hard time at the start pretending to mishear his age as 15 and then asking James Shields if he ‘Plays with it every day’ to the amusement of the crowd. Amanda buzzed James halfway through and you could see he got a fright as the piece he played on the clarinet was pretty quiet. Simon told her she was a disgrace for doing it and the crowd booed her. She also got booed when she said no to him at the end. Piers said yes and it all hinged on Simon’s vote. Unfortunately for James Shields he said no and it was a big fuss over nothing.

A few rubbish acts were up next for some comic relief. Richard Barriball played a tune on hanging wine glasses and smashed on at the finale. Three no’s.

31 year old catering worker Ivone Deruish came on playing the trumpet and looked really nervous her hands were shaking as she played. The interview at the start was funny as she gave short sharp answers to Simon. She didn’t get through.

Spoiled brat Matilda Myska, 16 came on to play the piano but couldn’t really and was buzzed off. She looked like a bit of a goth and had a serious attitude problem. Matildo Myska blamed the piano and said they shouldn’t judge her as she’s in the middle of doing her diploma. I’m not sure what that’s got to do with anything? Simon then called her spoiled.

Last but not least Liam McNallly was on at the Manchester auditions. He was 14 and claimed to wake up in the morning singing. Liam McNally sang Oh Danny Boy in a really high pitched operatic style and thrilled the crowd and judges. Piers said he was actually a main contender to win Britain’s Got Talent 2010. Simon said he was a fantastic singer but warned that because of his age he’ll only have that voice for 6 to 9 months more so he’d better enjoy it. Liam McNally was a nice way to end the show as he got through to the next round.

Britain’s Got Talent 2010 episode 7 is back next week and it’s the first semi final!
