miserableoldgit Posted 23 April, 2009 Share Posted 23 April, 2009 So waht is Lea Salonga doing now Colm Wilkison was one of the singers I heard when I saw Les Mis for the second time. I was pretty impressed with Martin Guerre as musical to. also while we are on the subject I though both the saturday night fever set and Miss Saigon were brillian. loved the helicopter in Miss Saigon. I do back stage amatuer dramatics set building and always inspired by the professional sets that are put together but you cannot beat the cleverness of the les mis barrier set. awesome http://www.leasalonga.com/ I saw Martin Guerre when it first opened but it didn`t last very long. The writers had a lot to live up to after "The Glums" and Miss Saigon. It was revised and was more successful when it came back. The set to most modern musicals are pretty spectacular. I particularly was impressed with the Mary Poppins and My Fair Lady sets in London, but I do find the barricade tranformation in Les Mis breathtaking every time I see it.

LVSaint Posted 24 April, 2009 Share Posted 24 April, 2009 Was watching South Park a few nights ago - “Everyone at school is a ****ing idiot and if one more person talks to me about that Susan Boyle performance of Les Miserables I was going to puke my balls out through my mouth." - Ike, South Park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tpbury Posted 26 April, 2009 Share Posted 26 April, 2009 Er, except she does. I don't watch the show but I've seen the clip and her voice sent shivers down my spine. As did that young Welsh lad incidentally. Her looks have nothing to do with it. Judging people on looks is just plain silly. OK if she was trying to be a fashion model. It's a bit like expecting every fashion model to have a superb singing voice, or every footballer to have a Masters degree in astrophysics. It's a shame that people are so pre-occupied with looks that they can't see the wider picture. Symptomatic of a shallow society IMO. Shurely you are referring to super model Ian Dowie?

St Landrew Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 Well, it was a fair chance that someone else had watched it... :cool: Yeah, I saw HIGNFY and the comparison. I thought Frank Skinner did quite well as a host too. I notice all the comedians who host try not to laugh at Paul Merton's stuff, but when he really gets going they can't help themselves. Skinner's face was creased practically all of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Lungs Posted 30 April, 2009 Share Posted 30 April, 2009 Did someone say, HIGNFY? From Boyle, to Blessed - my favourite.

hypochondriac Posted 24 May, 2009 Share Posted 24 May, 2009 Just winds me up how people are going on about how fantastic she is. Anyone with any musical training (and even people for none for that matter.) can she that she is decidedly average. She will almost certainly win though and that's annoying.

jawillwill Posted 24 May, 2009 Share Posted 24 May, 2009 It's so blatently rigged to try and make her win its unbelievable. First putting her last on the show, then giving her a standing ovation and then bigging tonight's performance up as if it was perfect - when it very obviously wasn't.

hypochondriac Posted 24 May, 2009 Share Posted 24 May, 2009 Yep that annoyed me most of all. They didn't even comment on her performance really, just about her last performance and how the world is watching. You look at the people with real talent like that dance group and the moronic British public just annoy me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course she would have gone through but the dance group were vastly superior and should have been voted through by the public. It's who I would have voted for had I voted. I just hope common sense prevails in the final though I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the coverage she will now never live up to expectation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 24 May, 2009 Share Posted 24 May, 2009 Aren't you people getting a little too involved with all this Susan Boyle stuff..? Stop watching if it winds you up. I wish they would put a decent programme on the TV, instead of that twaddle, because my old Philips is going to last for decades at this rate of non-use. BTW Dicko, this is the Lounge.
