She got dropped from America’s Git Talent because they couldn’t understand what she was saying abd she wasn’t capable of modifying it, or at least toning it down. So unless something drastic has happened she must be playing it as Geordie.

Can only be a matter of time, surely?

So unless something drastic has happened she must be playing it as Geordie. It was actually the US version of The X Factor. I don't think the accent matters considering they've had Lily Allen, Giovanna Fletcher, Mandip Gill and Laura Whitmore who all used their natural accent. TBH it does surprise me this hasn't found a permanent home yet, perhaps they're aiming for either the Fortune or the Ambassadors? |

She has a massive fanbase so this will be a hit, I think.

I must say it's helpful she's given up on surnames, it's difficult to remember which one she's on.

This thread started with you posting a similar reaction to Lily Allen and she ended up being nominated for an Olivier award. |

Can only be a matter of time, surely? Like we wouldn’t all be there in a heartbeat. Going back to what was said unthread: the actual ghost of Cheggers (a la Blithe Spirit) would be an amazing casting coup. Probably a bit of a headache contracts-wise. |

She has a massive fanbase so this will be a hit, I think. Does she anymore though? Especially one that will pay £50+ for a ticket. This isn't 2008-2010. Her last attempts at music didn't do well and her reputation took a hammering over personal life. She seems pretty irrelevant today. Mind you this show seems to becoming the home for has beens or wannabes, it's the new Chicago. |

My money is on one of two scenarios. Cheryl pulls out before her start date due to ‘personal reasons’ or after a handful of performances due to ‘illness/Long Covid’. Given the carnage at the N’dubz concerts recently, I’m sure Tulisa would be availed to step in at the last minute to replace her ( the mutual talent show presenting experience would be a boon obviously).

This is real then? I thought the references to Cheryl were a wind-up.

Surprisingly enough, it's not Cheryl who's had to pull out of the show, but her co-star Hugo Chegwin. Which is what happens when you hire an actor whose only experience is improvisational comedy and is unable to actually learn lines.

I thought it was Keith Chegwin when I first read that, had visions they might have got the ABBA Voyage team on board to work their magic…

Has anyone seen this with the singer who has no surname?
Not something I'd want to see but interested to hear people views who have been.

Trying to fill a Sunday evening slot in two weeks and this is one of the few options I've found. Judging by the reactions here, if I go I shouldn't pay much to do so. Is that a fair assessment?

Yes, fair- I thought it was entertaining, but I was happy to have paid £15 for a front row seat with an offer in October. I would not want to pay much more than that |
