Poor Roland. He was a crap singer, but he wasn’t the worst. That prize would have to go to Miranda, who was funny but so out of tune it was painful.

Rowland found himself tonight in the bottom three with Miranda Hart and Angellica Bell. Angellica was saved by the judges and 10 out of the 11 contestants voted to save Miranda. It was actually quite uncomfortable viewing as Rowland was obviously embarrassed to be there and grew more red as more and more of his fellow singers voted for Miranda to stay.

So its goodbye to Rowland with the fake boobs…I don’t think the song choice (Stand By Your Man) did you any favours mate!

Rowland Rivron (born 1958) is a comedian, musician, writer and a British television presenter. He was raised in Hillingdon, West London.

Rivron first came to fame through his appearances as the comedy character of “Dr Scrote” on the Jonathan Ross chat show The Last Resort, before appearing on Night Network’s Bunker Show. He developed this into a series for Channel 4 called Set of Six about Dr Scrote and his five brothers. In 1989 he starred with Jools Holland in the short-lived series The Groovy Fellers, and in the early 1990s he presented his own chat show, Rivron, in which the entire set floated in the River Thames. Rowland also made a memorable appearance in the children’s schools BBC TV Series Cats Eyes. Read more & comment »
