Hocks Reality Check


Hey Everyone and welcome to the latest in this series where we review the Weekends reality television. Before we start we want to apologize for the lack of blogging in the last few weeks, this has been due to a number of different issues all relating to members of the family being ill. 

So Lets first discuss Celebrity Big Brother and the fact that James won the series. 


The Hocks have not enjoyed this series, so much so that not a single episode was watched by any of us after the launch night. the American contestants were rubbish and the the British ones were brought down by them. 

So lets move onto the +XFactorUK 2015 And this weekend saw the culmination of this years Bootcamp. 


The biggest talking point was the fact that Nick Grimshaw, One of the 4 Judges was not part of the process for the last part of boot camp and then was not part of the process for whitling down the contestants to 15 per category ready for next weeks 6 chair challenge. 

Why, if you were Simon Cowell would you accept this? it felt very wrong that at such an important stage in this process a key judge was missing. However, one positive this weekend was the performance of Rita Ora who for the first time since taking up the role really shined

Now the Big part of the weekend was the Launch of this years +Strictly Come Dancing 


Over Friday and Saturday night the contestants performed their first dances and The Hocks are really excited about this series and truly believe it could beat this years X Factor in ratings. 

The Hocks really like Tess and Claudia presenting it and the regular judges being back never gets boring. 

Anna is our Strictly expert and she believes that if Peter Andre tones down his slight over acting then he could be crowned this years winner. As always with strictly there's one who just makes you laugh when they dance and this year it has to be Ainsley Harriot. 

So that is that for this week, with Strictly clearly winning over the Hocks compared to X Factor

Tune in on Wednesday when Anna will be continuing our A to Z series with the Letter N, Which will include lots more cute pictures of the Newest member of the Hocks, Milo the Dog!
