For those of you who are fans of such shows as 'Britains Got Talent', 'X Factor', 'Grease is the Word', 'Pop Idol', 'Any Dream will Do', 'How to Solve a Problem like Maria', 'Chelsea Flower Show' and 'Britain's Favourite Turnip', you will be pleased to know that the BBC has not given up on the successful 'lets try and find talent in a bunch of medicore hacks' based programmes.
'Last Choir Standing' (I'm not joking, that is its name) is a new reality talent show pitting choirs of various styles against each other in a search to find Britain's best choir.
I have only one question: Why?
Why do we care or indeed why do we need to know. How will this improve our day to day live? Will we actually feel better when we send in our £1.25 a go text to send our favourite team through to the next round?
I'm not really having a go at the TV companies for this. Of course, the formula to these shows has been infinately successful. But Choirs?! I think it's got to the point where we are no longer scaping the barrel, but have punched a hole in the barrel and are now shovoling the shit the barrel is sitting in.
