Alex is gonna survive. He'll form a little Posh Boys' Collective with Tim, and they'll bitch about puppet abuse.
The booing made me wince but, in a strange way, I felt Adele deserved it, if anyone did. I think of it in Child Psychiatry terms: when a large family brings a disruptive 'problem child' (attention-deficit or conduct disorder) to the doctor, it's important to look hard at the group dynamic. Nine times out of ten, there's a 'stoker', a child sly enough to wind the volatile kid up, give them a prod then retreat to a safe distance. This describes Adele and Jade's relationship, except in this case, the 'stoker' was caught - by seven million-odd viewers.
I also didn't hugely appreciate Adele implying that she only had a girlfriend because men always fancied her sister over her. Way to go, Gender Warrior!
Nasty, duplicitous, behind-the-scenes manipulator. She had it coming. |
