So, this it, we’re getting closer to the big night – the Britain’s Got Talent Final 2010.



Who’s your money on?



Well, here in the Eflex Computer office we are holding a sweepstake, and have spent most of the week discussing our favourites.



Alex wants Janey Cutler to win because she reminds him of his dear Nana Dobie who used to sing to him at night, and when she was changing his nappies. He won’t admit this, and says he likes her because to sing like that at 81 years old is truly phenomenal. But Kirstie knows of his true passion - because she has seen photos of Nana Dobie in Alex’s wallet. (What Kirstie was doing in his wallet in the first place has yet to be established mind you!)



And who does Kirstie like? Well it’s not a surprise really – she has been adoring all the male torsos on show in the gymnastic troupe Spellbound. She denies her liking them has anything to do with flat bellies on young men, and says she is quite simply spellbound by their amazing feats of acrobatics. Of course, we know differently because we have seen the slide show screensaver she’s got running on her laptop, which has all the young guys on a perpetual loop.



In fact, Gary has caught Kirstie deliberately wasting time on her laptop so her screensaver will kick in every three minutes just so she can ogle the young flesh.



It’s becoming a bit of an obsession, and even Gary is getting worried. He came hobbling into the office the other day while she was at lunch, and told Paul that Kirstie had even got him trying some of the Spellbound routines at home. That’s why he was hobbling. Twisted his ankle spinning Kirstie around in some crazy re-enactment of Spellbound’s most dangerous stunt.



It’s all the more crazy because poor Gary is only five foot three – and Kirstie is almost twice his size!



As for Gary, well his money’s on Twist & Pulse, the dancing comedy duo from London. He says it’s because he just thinks they have the most talent. But Paul reckons it’s because secretly Gary has always wanted to dance like them.



(Paul has many tales to tell of the Dancing Gary from their days in Espana – but he’s saving them up for when he really needs them).



Kirstie, though reckons it’s the nifty tops the young lads are wearing that has caught Gary’s eye, as Gary has developed a taste for lurid reds and bright blues – you should see the background colours he puts on his computer.



And last but not least there’s Paul. He’s going for impressionist Paul Burling. Why? Because they share the same first name. Paul is what you might call a snob. He thinks these kinds of shows are just exploitative, and shallow.



I wonder if that’s because he was turned down once for Pop Idol? The rumour has it he was so bad they wouldn’t even let him on the stage.



Maybe Gary has some tales to tell about that…
