Right now. Of course Harry Hill has done it before. It's a great show, much comedified in it's current incarnation. Will find clip. Hopefully..

By the way, he's a railway signalman called Jim Thomson, and he's pretty bloody good.

Yes my son just text me to switch over. I thought he was good.

Me and my brood all thought he had a decent stab at it....not bad at all....but the jeans were not up to scratch....a bit too baggy and flared to cut the mustard! Overall though we think :thumb:

Was just saying that I was enjoying Stars In Their Eyes in the tv thread and then a Mozzer impersonator crops up. He wasn't bad.

And the winner, going through to the 'not live' final, is...the guy who did John Legend. So Moz is out. The whole show was excellent. If you like absurd-comedy-tinged singing contests.

Aw, pity the studio audience voted for John Legend. :(

I didn't see all of it, but his vocal really sounded like Morrissey.

Julie Hamil should get in touch with the guy.
 
I liked the backstage bit, where the pissed-off Morrissey knocked over Britney Spears' and Debbie Harry's game of Jenga.

And you can watch the whole show here, though you have to register. Worth it for the angry Morrissey Jenga scene.

I thought the Jenga-rage scene was a more true-to-you impersonation than the on-stage schtick :thumb:

I mean he's a bloke from Lancashire who sings flat. It's not much of a stretch for him to 'do' Moz c.1983.
 
Tonight Harry I'm going to be... MORRISSEY!

I came across this news item and thought it might be of interest or meaning to the Brits among us...

Did you spot ‘This Charming Man’ on ‘Harry Hill’s Stars In Their Eyes’ on Saturday night?

Jim Thompson, from Woodley, Stockport, appeared on the show this weekend as his idol, The Smiths front man Morrissey to perform one of his most famous hits.

Complete with flowers to throw around the stage Jim was transformed into the Davyhulme-born singer, with quiff and an unbuttoned shirt.

Jim said: “I was so nervous walking through those doors. I know it wasn’t the best I could have done.”
