...Piers Morgan, the oleaginous foil to David Hasselhoff on BGT's U.S. sister show, America's Got Talent, reprises this role in Britain, pouring oil on any waters stirred up by sharp-tongued fellow judge Simon Cowell. It was Morgan who at the start of last night's final revealed the real meaning of the event. "How good it is we have something that takes the world's eyes off our greedy bankers and corrupt politicians," he said.

Baldwin's custody case is still pending, but the other two men have retained custody of their children...

You hit [them] where it hurts--their public image." SCORE...
