    Can't say I've any talent meself, so my ambition would be to sing like I was convinced of my ability and make the freaks reel, acting stunned if I didn't make it :pac:

    What would you do on it?
    Would you tell them what you thought of them if you didn't get through? Would you be a camera-friendly crier if you got through?

    That hasn't stopped people traveling from thousands of miles away to try out (see Britains Got More (read less) Talent).

    Well, it's partly car-crash TV, so it'd be a new twist.

    Perfect for the heart-rending back story. Ant and Dec voiceover talking about your crippling shyness, your near agrophobia, then you gulp, break out in a sweat, the judges encourage you....then you start to sing like Adele and the crowd goes wild. No excuses, go and do it.

    No, I'd just stand there with nothing to do :(

    (Not that the majority of people who do go on it are actually in possession of anything that could even remotely be called "talent".)

    Every other famous person in history has had to go on some talent show in order to get their talents shown to a wider audience ,to get that first break ( oppurtunity Knocks ,You're A Star etc ) so gimmicky talent shows like B G T are no different in that respect except some 'acts ' on there are only begging to be exploited for the laughs and better suited to appearing on Jermey Kyle .

    Peeling the skin off balloons, but yet leaving the balloon intact.

    Failing that, my impression of Michael Fagan.

    whats worse about this guy is that he went on the German version and the judges let him through.

    I'd love to give it a try some time even just for the experience. But the long wait in queues and the risk of doing something stupid in front of such a big audience forever recorded on tv is just too off-putting :p

    Also a lack of talent doesn't help either :rolleyes:

    I don't think you have the hunger we're looking for. The lack of talent we could live with :pac:
