I might give it another go CV. Popcorn was quite ahead of its time in terms of predicting reality TV so I got a bit impatient with Dead Famous.

I'm old enough to remember Friday/Saturday Night Live and his anti-Thatcher rants Clapping. And the one about the tabloid reporter in Dante's version of hell under Judas Iscariot looking up his arse. Laugh

I fell in love with Stavros and his "Hullo everybody peeps". Blush

But hang on, Mr Cowell. Don`t the vast majority of the acts that you nurture and praise and make money from sing with American accents?
Yes they do.
Forked tongue Simon Cowell.
