Britain HAS got talent

[Blasphemous]

It seems such a pity that modern day "cabaret" shows spend so much time and focus on singers and dance troups.

BGT allows any act.

I thought the mongrel put up the best performance by far.

True, but just watching it last night, with the exception of the dog act and a short clip of some chap doing acrobatics in a big hoop, the main attention was singing and dancing. Where are the mime acts, the stunt cyclists, magicians, the oddity acts, gymnastic teams etc etc etc?

Are such acts competing? I don't know the answer. I agree to an extent... but 'mime acts'!!!! NO! Please lets not bring that tripe back.

It would be nice to see a mime act for just a minute or so even if they didn;t get through. What about impersonators?

True - it will be a somewhat limited career, culminating no doubt in some sort of engineered guest appearance on Waterloo Road in a few years time.
