The One and Only..

[trickrick]

Well, I stumbled across this for a few minutes last Saturday on BBC 1. Yet another talent show, but this time it's the most talented 'celebrity double' I think.. I missed some but I caught one or two, and Diana Ross appeared to be well above some of the others. From recollection, I believe the live show (or shows ) starts on Saturday...




Anyhoo, although this is Paddy odds, I have taken the 9/1 on Diana Ross (Boyle) - interest stakes only..

Diana Ross to win the outright - 2 pt stake @ 9/1 (Boylesports)

Seen this last week and auditions were absolutly crap.

But Lionel Ritchie was the best

I completely forgot about this (mind you...who was watching!? ). We're into the semi-final stage with two chucked out tomorrow night...

Cheers Stereo..Trust you to drag this up from the pits..(Pits being the operative word..)

Please leave what is possibly the world's worst talent show's thread to fester and die slowwwwly.....

Aw FFS! If I paid any attention to this show I would have been on a 10/3 winner with Tom being eliminated first due to having the lowest votes and then Diana loses the sing-off to Cher.

I don't care how I make my money betting really.

Odds for the final from yesterday's Bettingzone Market News:

1415: Meanwhile over on the BBC Lionel Richie is the joint 6/4 favourite with Sky Bet alongside Dusty Springfield to win 'The One and Only' ahead of this weekend's grand final.

Tribute artists Moni Tivony and Katy Setterfield became two of five acts to sneak through a nerve-wracking semi-final, which saw the end of the line for Simon 'Tom Jones' Abbotts and Siam Hurlock, aka Diana Ross.

Only one person can secure the performance contract in Vegas and 7/2 third favourite Frank Sinatra soundalike Anthony Adams will be hoping it's him while 8/1 shot Tony Lewis, who performs as Robbie Williams, and Cher wannabe Joanna Berns (10/1) are considered the outsiders.

=============

Will the BBC send a white guy, who's around a foot shorter than the real thing that is Lionel Richie, over to Las Vegas? Probably not but the viewers might!

I can imagine the same voters who voted for Tara Palmer-Tomkinson to win will vote for Lionel Richie for a laugh.

Not enough as Dusty Springfield wins ahead of Frank Sinatra and Lionel Richie. D'OH!! I should have realised the BBC would have played safe.
