Even though it might be presented as a slice-of-life reality documentary, Simon Cowell: The Next Act is -- wait for it -- The X Factor. It’s literally just another bloody X Factor. Go to Full Review Jon O'Brien metro.co.uk 21h

Harvey K @Harvey658 20h The topical nature of this makes it a shoo in, in my world. When the kids had their first record company meeting I wanted to kill them. No allowances for youth and not knowing. Boy, were they stupid. I wonder if this DNA will resurface. But bye bye love to real music 🎶🎵 I remember the radio in the car and real music. Bye bye love 💕 See more Read all reviews
