What is the fascination that TV talent shows have with letting us know that those who look like they hit every branch of the ugly tree shortly after plummeting from its peak, all have some for of inner beauty that we're supposed to admire and warm our cold, black hearts with?

Jonathan Antoine is the latest uggo to drop his trousers and have the ungreased fist of ITV?s Lord and Saviour, Simon Cowell, operating those gorgeous vocal chords, located somewhere beneath that 3^rd or 4^th chin.

Following in the very deep footsteps of Susan Boyle, Michelle McManus and, yes, even Rick Waller, Jonathan and, to a lesser extent, his singing partner, Charlotte something, have burst onto our screens and will, for the 4^th or 5^th year running, remind us that REAL beauty, the kind of beauty you SHOULD care about, is on the inside.
