I agree. These talent shows at worst are entertaining and lighthearted and at best wonderful displays of talent that can leave you spellbound.

saying that, BGT is becoming the World's got talent with circus acts and dance groups.

I love listening to choirs of any type, church gospel, barbershop etc. and some good ones perform on BGT.

No way does this go in 101.


While not my taste in talent shows, I've no problem with that at all. I may not watch it but that doesn't mean others shouldn't enjoy it. To be honest, I'd have a problem putting any TV show into Room 101 with the exception of shows like Jeremy Kyle, Love Island, Big Brother and it's Celebrity edition etc. All these shows exploit people for, so-called, entertainment. And I've a serious problem with that. And would have no problem dumping them all in Room 101.
