Right who thinks that Spellbound should open the 2012 Olympic ceremony.
They were brilliant and deserved to win.

Researching:
Booth's and Hughes from Birmingham

I do, they would be perfect as part of the opening ceremony, and it was a damn good suggestion by the judges, I thought so when they said it.

I'm glad the drummer came third, if only for the fact that had it been between him and Spellbound I just wouldn't have been able to call it. He was equally as brilliant tonight. I bet he's signing a contract as we speak though lol

Researching:
Lovell, Morse, Baker, Duval, Mortlock, Gibbs and Bristow.

Yes definitely.
I was torn between them and Kieran the drummer as well.
Both acts will go far. Brilliant.

They have been training together for years... they are, first and foremost gymnasts, and about to compete in the World Championships later this year... they are not by any stretch of the imagination a *made up for the day* group... their skill and their breathtaking expertise shows that dedication and constant training superbly... so I imagine that the format will stay the same, even as some mature and move into other *roles* within the group.... and as others mature and move on to coaching and choreographing. But thehy will be fundamentally the same.

Of course they will be around in 2012.... and well beyond that, I imagine.

And yes... they would get my vote to open the Olympics, too. And close it. And during the intervals, lolol ;¬))

Love
