Though usually studiously
avoided, I viewed tonight’s Britain’s Got Talent semi-final to confirm my
contention that the acts are little more than a minor distraction from the
shows real purpose – the adoration of the judges, the sob stories of
participants, the whipped up frenzy of the live audience, and of course the
generation of revenue from the adverts and the voting public; sure enough the
eight acts had two minutes each and so occupied just sixteen of the ninety
minute show.
