Britain's Got Talent
Hoop la la - gymnastic hula hoops
Students, 22 - 25
If you're looking to take up a hobby you'd do
well to steer clear of juggling like Phil,
but the Hoop La La circus act may prove to be
trendsetters themselves.
The three piece group took hula hoops to
whole new level by adding in gymnastic
element and a new stylistic - ahem - twist.
The act went down a storm with the judges.
Amanda told them, "This is camp nonsense,
it's brilliant!", while Piers was gleeful.
"That was more than just a hoop act. Having a
young Christopher Biggins in the middle was
really funny". Looks like Tina, Jessie and
Craig have reason to be cock-a-hoop with joy!

Show 5 (Saturday, 10 May 2008 at 8:00)
Britain's Got Talent is a British television
show on ITV (also on TV3 in Ireland).
Presented by Ant & Dec, the talent show
premiered on 9 June 2007, and was broadcast
daily with a live final on 17 June 2007. It
is a search for Britain's next best amateur
talent act, featuring singers, dancers,
comedians, variety acts, and other talents of
all ages. Anyone who believed they have
talent was encouraged to audition. The winner
of the show received £100,000 and performed
at the Royal Variety Performance in front of
the Queen and members of the Royal Family at
the Empire Theatre in Liverpool.
As Britain's Got Talent returns for its
second series, hosts Ant & Dec and judges
Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan
once again begin their search for Britain's
most talented performer. The second series
began on a primetime slot at 19:45 on 12
April and for the remainder of the auditions
will continue in this Saturday night slot.
Once the semi-finals begin they will be shown
daily, like in series one, over one week 26
May - 30 May with the live final on Saturday
31 May.
Format
The series made its début soon after the
conclusion of its U.S. counterpart, America's
Got Talent, and is the creation of The X
Factor and Pop Idol/American Idol mastermind
Simon Cowell who has created a Got Talent
series across the globe. On 12 February 2007
it was announced by ITV the judges would be
Cowell, Piers Morgan (who had also judged
America's Got Talent), and Amanda Holden (a
late replacement for Cheryl Cole[1]). In a
similar fashion to The X Factor, the show has
an ITV2 counterpart called Britain's Got More
Talent, presented by magician and former CITV
presenter, Stephen Mulhern.
The show was originally planned to air much
earlier (before America's Got Talent) and be
presented by Paul O'Grady. However, after
O'Grady's defection to Channel 4 from ITV for
The Paul O'Grady Show, O'Grady refused to
appear in another ITV show, so the series was
put on hold after just one rehearsal
show.[2][3]
The audition process is similar to The Gong
Show but with the judges pressing buzzers
instead of banging a gong. The buzzers can
only be pressed once if the judge has seen
enough, and when all three are pressed the
act must stop. The auditions also include the
added twist of having to perform in front of
a studio audience alongside the judges. Once
the act finishes or is stopped, judges
express their opinions and decide whether
they would like to see them in the
semi-finals, with acts needing to receive a
majority vote to go through. The audience is
invited to express their views (often boos or
cheers) which may have a positive or negative
impact on a judge's decision, should the
judge be unsure on whether to put the act
through.
