And personally I feel that Viking was bringing more of a subtle tone to an otherwise very OTT Show, obviously some people will find that dull, but for me I'd rather that than the cliched stuff that the Sausage is doing but I suppose that's just my own personal taste coming in.

Dragon did one of the few upbeat songs this week, is a cute costume, has nailed the characterisation,, so it doesn’t surprise me at all really.

However I disagree with the top paragraph as Viking did his sing-off well imo, and he clearly was in a different league to Grandfather Clock (I do like Glenn Hoddle though) I think that you obviously don't like Morten Harket's type of singing so are judging him more harshly because I honestly think that a lot of the public would've seen it as a Jedward beating Lucie moment if the Grandfather Clock had've beaten Viking that week.

I love Take on Me, and if I’d seen him do that I would’ve seriously considered voting for him, but the one performance of vikings I saw was that one, and it really wasn’t a surprise to me that he was voted out, the audience tends not to have gone to any shows beforehand, so had no idea what he’d done previously, the general opinion that evening was that Viking would probably have the least votes and go first, it really wasn’t a surprise to anyone.

I totally agree that he shouldn’t have gone over Grandfather Clock, but most of the social media reaction (that I saw at least, which admittedly was less than normal) seemed to be saying he should’ve gone, which definitely isn’t the case.
