Olly Murs - Busy.
I will get round to the rest of the Eurovision entries shortly, but first I must make a brief intermission in proceedings to alert the world to the latest eye-boggling offering from X Factor’s most relentless loser, Olly Murs.
Unable to get even a single ‘woo’ off OK Cupid, Olly constructs a girlfriend for himself out of papier mâché. He throws her a birthday party which makes her come to life. This would have been utterly charming if Will Young had done it (with special guest appearance by Kim Cattrall of course) but in the hands of Murs we see an alarming portrayal of agoraphobia and obsessive compulsive disorder (much of Murs’ screen time is spent cleaning himself or his tools - note also the precision with which the pineapple chunks have been laid out on the tray). He’s basically one step away from Norman Bates here. Or am I thinking of an episode of Buffy?
