Among the "eccentrics" (oh how we love 'em) this year will be The Cheeky Boys, old men hiding their private parts with balloons, someone who belches called Paul Hunn, a leprechaun by the name of Jimmy Forde, and a parrot who eats potato puree. Many of these acts in my opinion are contrived with the sole intention of creating cash for the vulgar and cynical. There may well be some bona fide cranks and buffoons in their number, but they would be best served by visiting a therapist and not exposing themselves to Simon Cowell's modern day freak show.
