They’ve done it again! Our pals over at UnrealityTV (who’re a lot more disciplined about finding this sort of thing out than us) have discovered what tunes the remaining dullards in The X Factor will be singing this week. What’s more, it’s WHAM WEEK! And George Michael week. So – wake me up before you go go, let’s head on over to Club Tropicana and see what’s occurring!

Ah, the ladies! Sweet, tender ladies; Sugar and spice and all things nice ladies! After a hard couple of sleepless nights on the jungle floor, poor Camilla broke down in tears. As she was smothered by the other cooing contestants (all but Jimmy, who watched from a distance as part of an apparent suss-it-all-out strategy) the cynic in me wondered whether this might be a ploy to curry audience sympathy early in the game.

What the world really needs right now – especially as it’s a Friday – is the sound of two atonal lads squealing their way through a Backstreet Boys number. So, courtesy of the News of the World, have some footage of the Grimes twins, better known these days as ‘Jedward’, doing just that before their fateful audition for this series of The X Factor.

‘Cripes!’ You might shriek… ‘that’s early!’
And you’d be right. It is early. Because we put in something of a poor show last week, here’s a slightly longer than usual podcast, early!
In this outing, we discuss Richard and Judy in dangerously sharp detail – catering to your every Madeley and Finnegan requirement.
Aside from Dick & Juds, we also:
- Discuss the top speed of a standard mobility scooter
- List the world’s most despicable people
- Agree that Doctor Chris is probably a Transformer and…
- Play the Dick-a-Juddy classic, You Say, We Pay – as well as…
- Have Napoleon perform a song with musical assistance from the genius, Nick Tann!
Subscribe in iTunes, join us on Facebook and follow my Twitter feed… or get stuck in below- it’s back to the old M4a format for the haters! Woo!

Lagging on this one, especially after I missed Cantface’s summation of the first episode.
We also didn’t cover the occasionally hilarious second episode in which contestants nearly brought about the implosion of such gargantuan chain monsters as Pizza Express and Yo Sushi – so here’s the lowdown on the remaining contestants in the culinary Apprentice.
Wash down your work surfaces and start the prep – service begins now.

Well done Von. Yes – very well done.
You’ve gone and started watching another very, very average science fiction show haven’t you?
You’ve been Sky Plussing Stargate Universe since it started, and I think you should own up.
