As one of the people who has appeared on this show i feel i must defend it, I appeared as Phil Collins Back in 1999 (i looked nothing like him before the transformation) and was amazed by the vocal talent of many of the contestants. Yes we were all pretending to sound like someone else but only the people who could sing got to the finals (i got there..lol). The one thing that is emphasised to all of us is that the lookalike part is an afterthought, first and foremost its a sound-alike show. I have my own voice but when i sang along with Phil's Songs i sounded different, thats why i did it. The show broke all TV viewing figures of its genre at the time i was on it but it is fair to say that it has had its day. Pete Bultitude.
