L.M. - I think you'll find that Liam's contract has been renewed for a few more months into 2006, but then you already knew that! 
By the way, how's everyone getting on with this quiz posted by West End Fan 2? Nice one!

Why do you care if George stays? Does it hurt you? He's not [u]bad[/u]. I think he's excellent, but others may have other opinions. Still, just because you think he's not as good as Liam doesn't mean he's not good or that he doesn't deserve to stay. He's made the show what it is just as much as Leon, James, Liam have, and Travis will.

Oh my god Musical Fan! I have really tried not to get involved or have a say with the comments you are making on this board but this is going way too far!
Give James and George a break, they have done nothing to you to deserve this!
All these are children you are talking about, who have extremely good talent, they haven't got to where they are today off the backs of anyone else.
I'm sure if Liam Mower actually reads these comments you are making he will be truly upset the way your are talking about his freinds so if you have any respect for him, give it a break.

Could you stop sending any abusive and insulting message. I agree with electricity. Everybody have their own favourites, but don't say anything bad about george and james. I think they are great in different ways, and they have something that liam does not have and vice versa

MF, we don't think that they are all equal in talent. But look at the difference between these:
Honest opinion:
I like Liam better than the others. I like his ballet sequence and voice, and while the others are nice, I just like Liam a lot better.
What we're mad at:
James and George help make the show? Ha! Hardly! They wouldn't even be on the show if Liam could legally do all the shows. James and George wouldn't be near theatre if it wasn't for Liam. Maybe Liam would have an understudy Leon but George and James? Ha.
(yes, I'm paraphrasing).
See the difference? One states your opinion, and says that you like Liam better while not smashing the others and making hurtful comments toward them. The other doesn't even focus on positive things on Liam, but instead on negative things about James and George. If you like Liam so much, why don't you spend more time telling us why you like Liam instead of what makes you hate George and James (though I really don't see how you can hate them so much...)?
Get what I'm saying?

To be honest to you: I like liam the best. But I will never say that george and james are awful, as they have some ability that liam does not have. They are good in different way just like what i said before.

The whole point is that they are not the same, they are all different. So, if someone prefers the ballet side of the performance, they are going to think Liam or Leon is the best performer. If someone likes the street dancing, it will be George or James.
You need to take your rose coloured specs off though if you think Liam is best at everything because he quite simply isn't.

All great things must come to pass. We know the first will soon be last and in the ground we may be lain , but a seed is sown to rise again.

I guess there is no point in reasoning with certain contributors to this board!
Musicals Fan - It seems pretty clear to me that you are intent on stirring things up with express intention of upsetting other board members. Is that really necessary?
No one has ever said it was wrong to either like or dislike any one individual performer in the show, and if you happen to prefer Liam over the other boys then fine - no problem!
However, that doesn't mean that just because others here may not necessarily share your opinion, that they are wrong.
If you are a true fan of the show, then surely the purpose of being a member of this thread would be further your appreciation of the show with like minded people, and perhaps even make new friends!

MF, if George and James are as bad as you say then do you think they would of got the part of Billy?! Just give them a break as they are both great to be able to play that role! Can you not make your comments so abusive because they do hurt people more than you realise so just leave them alone, please

Hey, i have just been reading throught the messages that have been posted and i agree they are not all nice. Fair enough everybody has their own opinion but its not fair to say that the others are not good at all. Also, it is bad to compare all the billys as they are all completly different which is what makes each billy stand out. As you probably have noticed that i do prefer george however it does not stop me talking about how great and talented the other 2 billys are. If they wasnt so talented then why do you think they got chosen from thousands of boys across England. I think it is something that MF and LM should think about!

i just think that it's sick that we are arguing over three children in a show. We have to remember that they're just kids... they're all different and they all have their own different strengths. comparing them is like comparing apples to oranges because they each have a different variation of the show, tailer made to fit their needs. So basically, i don't really think they (the three boys) compare each other and i don't think it's fair that we do too...
not sure if that made sense
