    Anyone else see the Rock of Ages show ad - starring none other than Shayne Ward of X Factor fame! Looks like a good show

    They take so many breaks because Gary clearly needs to get his makeup retouched between every performance.. :rolleyes:

    most shows use the ad breaks as filler to fill out an hour, not x factor though, they actually extended x factor beyond an hour so they could fit in more adverts! :(

    Wasn't there only one act between the breaks? This is getting ridiculous!

    Well in fairness that is how they get the money to actually put on the show. And line Simon's pockets.

    Correct me if I'm wrong - think it was Biggins posted last week about they making less from the phone ins and they actually put in more ad breaks to compensate for it

    I know, but the point is - they don't need THAT much money that they need an ad break after every act. The show is already huge.
