[Notice we didn't comment on BGT quote] lol I know. I think there was only about 3 good acts throughout the whole show on Saturday. That was the mixed race lad who was singing, the 2 lads who were doing the body popping, and the guy doing the harry hill and the cartoon impressions. I do prefer the live shows when they have selected their chosen acts, to the auditions stage as it just focuses more on the silly acts than anything. I think it will get even worse next year, what with Simon not taking part in the audition stage. It won't be the same without him, and as well with this being his last AI:

Aww I'm really pleased Danielle won. She was brilliant last night, and also to be able to sing and dance at the same time like she did with both her songs was a huge credit to her. Pleased Lauren only came third.

I was gutted that Sophi didn't win but Danielle did do well, still though Sophie was better

I was really pleased the judges put through the young blond lad who played the drums, this time round, as I really felt for him last time when he didn't make it. I don't have a particular favourite at this stage. Maybe that will change tomorrow when the semi finals start. Last year, I loved Diversity from the first audition I saw of them, but there are quite a few good acts this year, but no front runner for me YET.

My two favourites (Tobias and Spelbound) from tonights show got through to the finals on Saturday which I am pleased about. But I would have liked the regurgitator to have been in the top 3, as even though you sit there like this when you watch him, he is very talented to be able to do what he did on tonights show. I was pleased to see Diversity on the show as well. I didn't think they could get any better, but tonight they were even more outstanding than last year. Just brilliant.

Hi Caz, I wanted spellbound to go through but I also wanted The Regurgitator to go through too as I was amazed at his act!! Tobias is good but I've had enough of these dance acts now, they are all the same. Diversity were different as their act is always interesting and they always come up with something new as well as being so tight! I get bored looking at one dancer, I can appreciate he is a good dancer but tbh he doesn't entertain me all that much and I was so happy that the public put Spellbound through with the most votes as they really were talented.

I felt the same as you Dee, I liked Tobias, but I dont think last night's performance had the same novelty about it as his first appearance. I wanted the Regurgitator to go through too, I was surprised he wasn't in the top three. Bit of a shame really, there were too many good acts on together last night, then some nights this week most of them will be dross I think Spelbound will win the final on Saturday.

I was absolutely overjoyed that Tina and Chandi got the highest votes as that dog is fantastic. I thought Gin the dog from the other year was brilliant, but Chandi just has the edge for me. I would love to see her win. Gutted for the doorman. I thought his performance tonight was amazing, and he was my second favourite. I knew Connected would be in the top 3, but I was kind of hoping he would get to the semi finals, as I am sure Simon will sign those lads up whatever the outcome. Do you not think that the song they sang by Simon's mate Brian which is unknown will be given to them to release, I know I do.

I was really pleased Chandi got the top votes! She was absolutely amazing! I liked the doorman and the boy band but I was glad Simon chose the boys as I thought they were a little better. The doorman was good but his story was better than his voice. I had heard that song before Caz, I'm not sure whether it where? Sounded like a high school musical/miley cyrus type song. You were right about that being the strongest night Kim, ity was pretty obvious who was going through last night

Last night was a tough one, as there were quite a few good acts. But I did think the right two acts went through. I did feel for peridot though, as they shouldn't have been compared to Diversity. They should have been judged on their performance alone, and I agreed with Simon. They were technically very good. I also liked The Arrangement, but I had a feeling they wouldn't have gone through with the standards being quite high last night.

I haven't watched last night yet, gonna watch it in a min. I did see the results show though and thought Peridot came across as a bit sore losers. I can understand the comparison with Diversity though and why put through an act that were not as good? I will see how the other two compare though as I have taped it and will watch tonights show straight after

Hi Dee. Have you watched tonights show yet? Really pleased Twist and Pulse are in the finals. They were the best act by far for me tonight. I don't know what Simon had been drinking tonight to say that the sailor dance troupe were the most imaginative and energetic of the night?? They were good, but I didn't think they were anything special. I knew Janey would get the highest votes with being on last. But even though she has a good set of lungs on her and she is great for her age, I'm kind of over it already. ;D I loved her first audition, but the press are turning her into the next Subo, and it's getting a bit tiresome now. I couldn't believe how bad that lad sounded who sang his own song. I liked him in the audition stages but tonight he was awful.

Yes I watched them both last night Caz, Peridot weren't as bad as I was expecting them to be but I still don't think they anywhere near as good as Diversity. I was glad the comedian got through but he didn't seem as good as the audition show. On to last night, for me it was obvious who the best act was and then I didn't care who went through too. Twist & Pulse were easily the best act. I agree with you about Janey??? I thought she was terrible!! She must have got the sympathy vote! I'm glad Twist & Pulse were put through, no thanks to Simon, he is really getting on my nerves this year! There are too many dance acts as well, I am so sick of them now. Any other country must be p*ssing themselves at our acts and can maybe understand why our eurovision entry was so bad;)

Only sort of half been watching this week, I agree with you Dee, there are too many dance groups. The ones from dancing schools are getting on my nerves, I don't think any of them are any better than you could see anywhere. Loved Twist and Pulse though. The boy singer was awful - what a stupid decision to sing his own song and he couldn't even sing that in tune!

I was glad that the drummer boy got through as he is very talented for his age, and Liam sang really well also. I only found out during his first audition that he lives across the road from my parents old house where we used to live. Small world eh, so for obvious reasons I was glad he went through. Now my fav two are Tina and Chandi and Twist and Pulse, so I would be happy if either of those acts won. Only I'm sure Chandi couldn't give a toss if she won or not. I bet the poor dog just wants a blo*dy rest. ;D
