He was super dull this week, struggled in a super strong show, and most of all quite obviously didn’t want to be there

How was it obvious he didn’t want to be there?

I felt he mentally checked out in week 2, his Harry Styles and Seal was very lucky not to have seen him go over Grandfather Clock, obviously the audience don’t know previous performances.

Plus it felt very flat in the studio after a double whammy of Robin & Badgers flawless performances and followed by Sausage’s I will survive, it really got lost in such a big show, so I’m really not surprised he went.

I agree with the bottom paragraph that the more dramatic performances sadly overshadowed Viking on the night.

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.

Yes, Morten style of singing is more understated, not in your face. But I think he's amazing anyway

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.

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.

Personally just because Dragon did an uptempo number doesn't mean that it should've been enough for Dragon to stay imo over either Viking or Blob.

And I would ignore Social Media as I remember the Glenn Hoddle super fans were out in force when they knew it was him as the Grandfather Clock.

I think he was in a disadvantage in his costume it looked very top heavy and he couldn't move around like others can in it, so his engagement was less
