dreadful waste of money. insult to both Scotland and commonwealth and licence payers. our money we deserved much better.

as eric always said : Rubbish!

[jennyjoan]

Nothing else to watch. I do think Alex Jones held it together very well.

Whoever it was, wants putting in the dungeon at the castle, and forgotten about, along with Alex Jones.

People were saying in the other thread about the acts, but most stars will sound crap singing their hits because in the recording studio, they have all the equip to erase the bad notes.

Cant understand why these old artist keep on going, Smokey Robinson was awful!

Yes it was a BBC production to celebrate the Commonwealth Games.

Complain to them here

I thought the acts were pretty good. I know Alex Jones and Ronnie Corbett were cringeworthy at times but i think a number of artists will have given their careers a boost. Mrs factor-fiction has finally agreed with me that One Republic should go on her iphone and she has dug out her Smokey Robinson records. Ella Henderson sounded pretty good for an ex X factor contestant. I really enjoyed John Miles and will dig out some of his stuff tomorrow. The African opera singers second song brought tears to my eyes (in a nice way) .

^ singer's not singers (in case Tilly sees this)

[Baldric]

Alex Jones displayed the same amount of talent there as she does on the One Show, ZERO!!!

[Baldric]

Surely 'singers' is ok as a plural, teacher?

[factor-fiction]

Yes, but I was saying "The African opera singer's second song..."
