Take a look at Billy Whiz's avatar, Brad. That's the "Frankenbilly" that most people dislike. The other one is the original image with the young Billy (also George). I am sure you remember that one.

There are no prizes for guessing which one is totally unrepresentative of Billy :D

So do we actually have George's head on George's body?
It is a great show that people do come and see. Because it's not
just a show for adults, or just for children, or just for people that
like theatre, I'd say for everyone, and it's got so much emotion
behind it. Because who ever comes and sees it, feels the story -
so I think: it's brilliant!" (GM)

Any Billy would be great on the media!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, quite redundant, but really, any Billy would do for the media on BETM.

I'm saying any Billy who has performed since 2005 would be perfect up there on the front of the VPT, down in the Underground, on the billboards, anywhere.

Liam, George or James would be obvious choices, but think of the brightness of a Colin or Travis or Matthew or Layton or Sam or Fox or Leon on any print or electronic media. There are no exceptions to the obvious conclusion that if a young man is on stage dancing and acting and singing the role of Billy, he can handle standing there for photos in a studio, or seemingly doing the Billy Jump in the electronic media for moving picture banners and the like.

But not the various FrankenBilly incarnations.

So, even the American Billy company got rid of the PM (Photoshopped Monstrosity) in the end so what is it doing still disfiguring the front of the VPT? Some of us have volunteered to remove it....for free, LOL.
