Talking Dog On Bgt

[merylpeep]

I've not watched it back yet, but it looked to me like that dog had a false snout on it, the mouth of which was presumably operated by remote control. When the dog walked off, in profile I'm sure the snout looked unusually long. If I'm right, that's not talent, it's cruelty. What did you think?

Ellipsis...thank you for that....its been a puzzle for me for years and now I know how to tell them apart ! I was relying on one of then having a "high forehead" up until now !

You never mix up Morcambe and Wise

Seems like this dog act has created quite a stir.

If I remember correctly wasn't there a ventriloquist in the 70's who had a talking dog? A parrot also was on the show. Have I jogged anyone else's memory?

I'm with you on this, Meryl, it's certainly not talent. I hate to see animals being used like this in the name of 'entertainment'. I didn't see the programme - just saw a clip someone had put on AB. That was enough for me.

Hey Melv, you're not thinking of 'Spit' are you? Belonged to Bob Carolgees.

What are your thoughts on the Grand National?

[mrs.chappie]

I hate it, OG. I like to see animals treated with respect. Whipping an animal to make it run faster is never gonna sit right with me.

But that'll never change, because there's a lot of money in horseracing, isn't there...

This is the one I meant..There's nothing much new under the sun...
The vents name was Saveen & he also had a puppet called Daisy May.

I enjoyed the clip - not so much because I thought the act was particularly memorable, but because I had forgotten how cosmically gorgeous Alesha Dixon is!!!
