LOL, fiddles will do I think if any other country were watching this show it would appear on their out takes! ;D I don't think there is that much talent tbh and its not a true refelction on whats out there, I'm sure if Joe Bloggs were to audition ppl he'd come up with a lot better than this. Oh well, Saturday night entertainment at its best

I totally agree with you Joyce. I felt really sorry for Per Diem too. They were not out of tune imo. I thought they sounded really good. The buzzers were very unnecessary. I liked the guy in the audience who had a dig at Amanda by telling them to take their tops off and then she would like them. I am glad Madonna didn't go through on her sob story as well. If she cares so much for her kids why didn't she bring her kids to England with her? Escala are very talented but did absolutely nothing for me neither. That's why I'm hoping George wins tomorrow as he wants it so badly and imo he's got huge talent and has the likeability factor. Faryl is very good also but she doesn't need to win as she will get signed up by Simon anyway, George wouldn't get that chance. Best tonight for me was Nemesis Really felt it for Per Diem there was no need for Amanda or Simon to buzz, if you come on with no shirts or boobs hanging out there is no buzzers!!Bloody idiots the two of them. That Madona woman was right off key but because she had a good sob story again no buzzer. And the bloody fiddlers all you could hear was the music. Well my favourites are George Signature and Strike

Like Dee I didn't watch this last year, but as the week has gone on I'm hooked. Last night's show was utter tosh though, what was all that with that woman flinging herself about the stage?? I can't help thinking this is more fixed than even the X Factor, four out of the five acts that won the public vote performed last, each night there's been a 'joke' act e.g. that dancing woman last night, the organ player and the singing clothes changer I'm just waiting for Strike to bring out string tonight to prove my theory ;D Haven't got a favourite, I don't like opera so that rules Faryl and the boy soprano out, fiddles (as Joyce put it ;D) set my teeth on edge and although I liked George I can't help feeling the staging with the rain falling was bigger than his act. Having said that I did like Nemesis last night, what I could see of them - I'm sure the camera man was drunk the angles he was giving us didn't allow the viewers to see them properly. I really don't want to see numerous close ups of someone's jacket pocket I fully expect Faryl or the fiddlers to be on last tonight - we'll know who Simon wants to win then! Reality heaven tonight - Craig's up North so I can jump from I'll do anything (Jodie to win!!) and BGT all night without him giving me earache for watching rubbish ;D

lol Kim. it's actually 5 out of 5 of those who went on last won the viewers vote. Monday - Signature, Tuesday - Andrew Wednesday - George, Thursday - Faryl and Friday - Escala. Saying that I don't think it's a fix how those acts won, as the majority of those acts were in fact the best, but I do think the judges/ production team put the best and their favourites on last so they would be remembered more by the public. Jodie to win for me too in I'll do Anything. Definitely the better of the three, and more life experience. I think the other two, who are 17 and 18 are too young to play Nancy anyway.

I liked Sam but like you say, she and Jessie are too young and besides Jessie annoys me when she sings out of the corner of her mouth. Rachel was my favourite but the public didn't seem to like her unfortunately. I hope Jodie wins, just because Jessie seems to be Andrew & Camerons golden girl! Back to Britains Got Talent, it seems signature are the chosen ones. they were on last after all. I still like Escala but they didn't seem as good as in the semi's. I was disappointed in most of the acts tbh. Interesting that Andrew informed us all that he didn't want to do that song and it was out of his hands, it makes me mad that the contestants don't have a say in all this Why did George Sampson do the same routine? I'm past caring who wins, the winner will be the one that simon & co wants to win, same as its always been!

Really glad Jodie won IDA. As for BGT, that was a joke. Top 3 , Andrew, George & Signature. George did the same routine, Andrew has got a couple of year at most until his voice breaks and then that'll be the end of him, Signature were a fun act but I had tired of them. Oh well, I suppose its just a light entertainment show at the end of the day but I do think the show should be renamed, I don't think "Britains got talent" is very apt. I am 100% sure that there are much more talented ppl out there, the only problem is, they don't have the sob stories to go with the talent!

I am over the moon George won. I know he wasn't your cup of tea Dee but he is such a talented lad, and imo he really deserved it. I even voted twice myself for him, and I swore I would never vote again. Took me ages to get through like, but it was definitely worth it. It will change his life, and that's what it's all about. I was quite surprised Faryl wasn't up there in the top 3, and even more surprised Signature were tbh, as they were good but not that good. But Faryl will get signed up by Simon anyway. Aww I am just so happy for George. My top 3 would have been George, Gin and Faryl, but the right person won for me anyway. ;D Also pleased Jodie won as well. Good result all round

Yes, I suppose it will change his life. I dunno, I think I'm sick of the whole sob stories, he was a good dancer yes, but he just didn't impress me that much. Tbh the whole show didn't impres me that much, I think I expected a lot more. America's got talent is on on Friday, maybe that will be better

Delighted Jodie won after the bias shown to Jessie - ALW had a face like a smacked arse (even more than usual ;D) That was a shocker - George winning Amazed Scala and Faryl weren't in the top 3. I was rooting for the dog ;D I thought George had scuppered his chances doing the same routine, again that was down to the producers. On Britains Got More Talent last night they said he was doing a new routine but the mixed track wasn't ready - seems it still wasn't tonight. Same as Faryl, she was supposed to be singing Amazing Grace rather than the dirgey Ave Maria - weird I welled up when George won, he was so surprised You're right though Dee, none of them impressed me that much. You can forget America's Got Talent - BB starts on Thursday ;D

I thought you must have been away Joyce with you not coming on here after George's win. It was fantastic wasn't it, him winning. I wish I had put some money on him as when I saw he had come back again this year, I was saying I wanted him to win then, and at that point, he hadn't even got down to the last 40. ;D Just back from a week away...Watched the final of BGT...Needless to say over the moon that George won...God I'm getting good at this picking winners lark... David Cook now George...Roll on xfactor maybe it will be three in a row
