I was pleased that Shaun and Flawless got through as they were the best of the night, but I felt quite sorry for Andrew Pugh as his nerves really got to him last night, and I don't think Amanda helped much by buzzing him. Have you noticed that the last act always gets the highest votes of the night. It was the same with Susan Boyle on Sunday and the same last year every night. lol You watch because I have said that, it won't apply to tonight's last act winning the highest vote. ;D Diversity all the way for me though. Lets hope on finale night they are on last.

Don't be silly Caz - Susan Boyle will have the pimp spot We watched Ashes to Ashes last night, I taped BGT, but luckily the two I wanted see, Shaun and Flawless were on last so I didn't miss them ;D Still like Flawless, but their routine last night didn't seem as polished as their audition. Shame really that both Flawless and Diversity are finalists as their votes are going to be split Probably won't watch tonight, there's only one act I want to see and that's Stavros Flatley - I want to see if they change their routine for the semis.

lol What a surprise the last act getting the highest votes again. Imo Shaheen was by far the best of the night. Stavros Flatley didn't do it for me tonight. Loved them the first time, but tonight I just found their act a bit boring. Kim you are probably right about Susan getting the best slot of the night on Saturday. But it's just been on the main news that Lily Allen said on her twitter site that Susan Boyle is highly overrated and she thinks Shaheen should win, so maybe Susan's popularity maybe wavering. In all fairness to her though, none of this media frenzy is her fault. It's just all been blown out of proportion. It's ridiculous.

That Lily Allen story (she's one to talk about not being able to sing : will just make people even more determined to vote for her unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised if SC was behind that story. Missed the first few acts, but did see some of the show. I was underwhelmed by Shaheen, the backing track was drowning him out, it doesn't help either he's had loads of professional experience, but he's being sold to us as just a normal 12 year old. Thought the dance act was no better than any local dance schools end of year show - what on earth was all that for the sympathy vote at the end of their act - too desperate and too cringeworthy. Glad Stavros went through, the act wasn't as good as their audition, but still entertained me the most. BTW sky news apparently leaked Sunday night's voting figures, don't know how accurate they are though 76.9% Susan Boyle 7.5% Natalie Okri 4.8% Diversity 4.5% Nick Hell 3.6% Faces of Disco 1.5% Darth Jackson 0.9% Sue Son 0.3% Julia Naidenko They might as well just hand over the title to Susan now

OMG I hope they're wrong Kim!!! I agree with you about Lily Allen, she is definately over-rated, although I do agree with her comments on Susan Boyle ;D I was the same with Shaheen, his mic seemed a bit low and he just seems too stagey, too polished. I like the little black girl better than him Although I did feel sorry for him at the end There could've been plenty of sympathy votes tonight though. I didn't enjoy stavros as much as their first audition, I had a feeling the dad didn't think it was as good either, I'm glad they got through though, lets see more riverdance on final night!!!!!

He does seem like a really nice man - I wonder how he will cope with all this?? Thought it was a poor show tonight, apart from Julian I wasn't impressed by any of the others

Aww I loved two grand. Had tears in my eyes listening to them, and I did at their first audition too. They are both so adoreable. Julian was very good. But I did read a bit back that he has toured with Chris Rea and a couple of other famous people who for the life of me I cannot remember, so with him even though he is fantastic, I feel a bit like I did with Flawless and that is that they have already been in the public eye and made money from their talent, so I feel that others should be given a fair go before them. Really liked Callum as well. He was very good. Hey tonight was the first night when an act has gone on last and hasn't won the viewers vote. I would have been asking for a recount if that woman with her flashing boobs had of won. ;D

Talk about car crash TV I felt so sorry for Holly - then she threw a tantrum Surely her Mother should have known there was a chance she was going to suffer stage fright?? I didn't think it was fair she got to sing again, but I can't really think what the producers could have done. Aiden deserved to go through, but I wish they hadn't used those effects, he didn't need them. Felt sorry for Greg, he seems like a really lovely guy, but his performance wasn't as good as his audition. I'm more interested who's going to come second tomorrow night - I've no interest in bloody Susan Boyle I'm rooting for Diversity or Flawless, but I think both acts will struggle because their vote will be split. I'm predicting Susan Boyle 1st, Aiden 2nd and Shaheen third.

Don't think she should have been allowed to continue, She looked absolutely petrified last night. she is clearly not ready for this..What must she be going through thinking of the final tonight. Bloody stupid panel, GBP, And her bloody pushy mother, she should have been on her way home to bed with lots of cuddles.
I thought Aiden was the clear winner, and like you Kim I felt real sorry for Greg it just did not work for him..And the rest was rubbish!!
That video is sooooooo funny.

It was a shame for Holly. She is clearly too young for all this, just like Natalie Okri was. Loved Aiden. Thought he was clearly the best of the night, and I am glad he got the viewer vote, and not Holly with the sympathy vote. Greg just wasn't as good last night as he was in his audition. Nerves must have got to him as well. Kim I agree with you about Diversity and Flawless splitting the votes. It's such a shame. I'm not so sure that Susan Boyle will win tonight. Hope I am right. I think the public have now seen that she wasn't as good with her second song as she was at her first audition. She needs to pull something really big out of the bag. Love Diversity to win, but think it will be Shaheen. Lmao That video is great Kim.

OMG If Diversity don't win there's something wrong, they were absolutley amazing!!! Love them!!!! Can't get through to vote for them though! I didn't like Holly, I don't think she's very good and got through on the sympathy vote and also don't think she should've been allowed to sing again, they wouldn't have let anyone else. I wonder what she'll do when she doesn't win Loved Stavros Flatley! I will be shocked if Susan DOES win!

Diversity were fantastic - and this from a Flawless fan Liked Flawless too, but Diversity edged it tonight Liked Stavros Flatley, don't know why, but they do make me laugh ;D Not impressed by any of the singers really - although Shaun gave good performance - but Susan Boyle I just don't get it I know she's going to win - but I reckon Diversity and Stavros will give her a run for her money!
