Good, my arias! This opera show is rubbish

I said Popstar to Operastar was going to be bad, and I was right. It's one of the worst programmes on terrestrial TV!

Let's start with the horrendous set. They've tried to turn a TV studio into a theatre, complete with chandeliers and boxes, but it's just a baroque nightmare with flock wallpaper more fitting in an Indian restaurant.

I don't understand who the show is trying to appeal to. Those who like pop aren't really interested in opera and opera lovers will think this tacky show is cheapening their art form, and they're right.
What is it supposed to prove, that it's possible to learn to sing opera in a couple of weeks?

It's full of odd-looking characters. Opera singer Rolando looks like a Muppet with that extraordinary hair. Alan Titchmarsh looks like Dracula with his bad hair and teeth.
Myleene Klass, wearing horrible bright pink lipstick, spouted too many terrible puns.
Let's not even mention Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen and his fatuous comments.

The BBC show Maestro, where they learned to conduct an orchestra, had a bit of class to it. This is just tacky.
The only thing that isn't cheap about it is the cost of voting, at a whopping 50p a time.

They say it isn't over until the fat lady sings, but we can't wait that long. Get it off our screens now.
