Hi Caz, sorry I'm being slack again :/ It looks like you had a great day on Saturday Kim, live the photo booth pics We were out sat night so I caught up Sunday. I couldn't believe Luke was in the bottom 2, bless him, he so didn't deserve it I'm glad that Sam finally went though as although likeable his voice was nowhere near as good as the others. Agree with you regarding rough copy Caz, they are not that great and their actions when they get through really wind me up, jumping around all over and punching the air. I wasn't that impressed by Sam B either, she peaked way to early and although consistent she does nothing for me, Nicholas is just as good Are we all watching IACGMOOH??

Didn't watch Saturday's show at all, but did see some of the results show (through bleary eyes and a houseful of noisy relatives!) so can't really comment on the performances. But I did think Sam outsung Luke in the sing off, but I was shocked Luke was there in the first place. Can't see the point in the sing off if they are basing their decisions on their overall performances Think Sam B is going to win this by a landslide, not really that fussed as I don't have a favourite this year at all Saturday was fantastic, the bride looked stunning and the sun shone all day. All got rather messy near the end of the reception with the photo booth, but it was good fun ;D Lucky sods are now in Australia for a four week honeymoon with a cheeky 4 day stop off in Dubai on the way back - me, I got three days up north in December for my honeymoon! Yes Dee I'm watching IAC and really enjoying it at the moment ;D

Aww glad you all had a great day Kim. Australia AND Dubai? ? Wow what a honeymoon that will be. Not jealous one bit. Sam did sing really well in the sing off didn't he? He was at his best when HE was choosing the songs. I am also watching IAC and so far so good, although Mathew Wright - what a big girls blouse he is crying like a baby. Joey Essex - Is he really that thick or is it all a big act? I have never seen TOWIE but heard rumours that he wasn't the brightest spark, but can't tell the time at his age? Really??

Taped last nights and whizzed through it. I've just really lost interest, not one of them really stands out for me this year Nicholas - Are they trying to get rid? The viewing figures were bound to be really low because of Dr Who, so they stick him on first Thought he sang ok, but Joe sang it so much better Hannah - Really enjoyed her performance, probably best of night for me Will be shame if she's in bottom two again. Luke - Didn't like the interpretation of the song, sounded like a dirge to me Rough Copy - Why give them a girls song? Good to see them doing something roughly in their genre though. That little one should sing more, he's the best singer Tamera - Oh dear, what a mess. Couldn't believe she forgot her words yet again, even the bits she didn't forget were not that great. Shame as she was my favourite, but she doesn't deserve to stay Sam B - Nothing to say, still sounds like a pub singer to me Think it will be Luke and Tamera bottom two - can't see how they can save her again without it looking like a fix, but that hasn't stopped them before I will watch to the end of the series, but if it doesn't improve next year I might be giving it a miss - shame

It was lovely to see Shayne Ward there last night, as I had heard he had been snubbed. Blink and you will miss the pic of Steve Brookstein though. Nicholas - I think he gave a good performance. I didn't know Dr Who was on at the same time Kim. Really hope he isn't bottom 2. Hannah - The song was perfect for her, and her best performance to date. Based on that, she doesn't deserve to be in the bottom. Luke - I loved his performance last night Kim. I think he totally made the song his own and did it really well. Rough Copy - I preferred Little Mix's version of this song, but aside from this I thought they sang and harmonised well. Tamera - Oh dear how can she forget her words AGAIN and for 2 weeks running? No excuses. Nicholas and Luke are the same age and they have never forgotten the words. She deserves to be in the bottom 2 so hope she doesn't get the sympathy vote. Sam - There is no doubting that she does have a great voice, but bleeding Love is not one of my favourite songs, so even though she sounded good, it didn't blow me away. Bottom 2 for me - Tamera and Rough Copy and Tamera to go. Kim Rumour has it Simon may be back next year so it may get back to how it used to be "more enjoyable" but if Cheryl comes back I may switch off with you. ;D

Well I got that completely wrong ;D Completely shocked Tamera escaped, but in a small way I feel sorry for her. Her nerves have completely gone since she was bottom two and I don't think all the flak she's getting from Louis is helping her. Can't wait until next week to see how she's going to remember 2 songs ;D Twitter rumours are that Nicholas was topping the votes last week - wouldn't surprise me at all if he wins, that'd be as useful as Sam B winning

I got one out of the 2 right. Close but no cigar ;D I find it hard to feel sorry for Tamera as she even forgot her words at the audition stages, and that was before she had all this pressure. If Nicholas and Luke can remember them then so should she. I think all that pot smoking has cabbaged her brain. ;D I do like Nicholas and Luke so would be happy to see either win, although Luke is now my favourite, and I think he would have a longer career than Nicholas, but Nich would also be good in musicals like Joe MCelderry. Sam yes great singer, and she could be the new Subo or Screwbo as Louis calls her, but it's hard to tell. I won't be buying her music.

Here is my take on last nights acts
Nicholas - I thought he was good, but didn't enjoy his performances as much as I normally do. He did take a risk with Greatest Day and I think it paid off as he seemed to hit all the notes. Hope he isn't in the bottom 2.
Sam - Preferred her second song - Clown to the first. She sounded amazing singing Clown.
Tamera - Thought her second song was very good. Much better than the first, and she remembered her words Yay. ;D
Luke - Loved both his songs. He just gets better and better.
Rough Copy - Didn't really like the mash up but thought they sang well singing I believe I can fly.
Bottom 2 - Hoping it's Rough Copy and Tamera and not Nicholas or Luke. Would prefer Tamera to go.

I'll see if I can remember last night's performances - and I was sober Nicholas - Think they want him out this week by the judges comments, although I agreed with them. Thought it was his weakest week Sam - Thought both of her performances were techinically very good, but there is just something missing with her for me. Agreed with Nicole about the cruise singer comment ;D Luke - Both songs well sung, but I like Skinny Love when it's not sung so aggressively Tamera - Enjoyed both her performances, but thought she was brilliant in the second. She's my favourite, even though she does forget the words at times ;D RC - Agree with you about the mash up, it didn't sound good and definitely didn't need all those dancers. Thought I believe I can fly was okish. Predict - Nicholas and RC bottom two, not sure who will go may go to deadlock

Kim you're getting worse with your predictions. At least I got one right. ;D But omg I cannot believe Luke was in the sing off. He was amazing last night, but I did get worried when Sharon said You're definitely going to be in the final. People think you're safe and that they don't need to vote when they say that. But so pleased he was saved. No thanks to Gary and bloody deadlock though. I agree with Louis and Sharon he beat Tamera hands down in the sing off. But I do think even though Nicholas wasn't at his best last night and was on first, shows how big his fanbase is and the Scottish votes could win this for him. I don't think Sam has it in the bag just yet.

Got deadlock right though ;D amazed Luke was bottom two, not so much Tamera. Thought Louis and Sharon's behaviour with Gary making his choice was disgusting, Louis has become very nasty with his sidekick there this year sorry to see Tamera out, but I still think she will be this years success. Don't think anyone but Sam is going to win this

Here's my take on last nights acts. Luke - I loved both his performances last night. I thought he was fab and could listen to his voice all night. Nicholas - Oh dear the first song was a car crash. He really struggled hitting those high notes which isn't like him at all, but thankfully he did so much better with the second song, and sang really well. Sam B - I thought both her performances were good, but I expected Candle in the wind to be emotional and really powerful and it was neither. Even though it was good, I was a little underwhelmed. Rough Copy - I thought both performances were quite good, but I did prefer their second song to the first. A good week for them I thought though. Really want Luke in that final and fingers crossed he does get there. The worst act of the night would have to be Nicholas for the first song disaster I am afraid, but hopefully he will still make the final as normally he is so consistent, so hoping Rough Copy go home. Would be quite happy to see Sam go as well but it's not going to happen.

Sorry Caz, I didn't watch last night, it was on in the background but I wasn't taking much notice. Been out for lunch today so haven't had a chance to catch up. Won't be watching the results tonight (maybe the last 5 minutes) but I can honestly say I'm not a fan of any of them - first time in ten years I doubt I'll be watching the final Think I should have stuck with my instincts and boycotted this year when Sharon was announced as a judge. Roll on XF 2014 ;D

Well Kim would you watch the final if there was a shock in store tonight and Sam went? ;D It would certainly shake things up a bit, like it did when Joey got voted out of the jungle on Friday. Sadly I don't think it will happen but we can live in hope. I won't be watching the final either as hubby and I are off out, but I will be recording it and possibly fast forwarding quite a bit of it as they do drag it out don't they? There will still be the results show on the Sunday though won't they? I am still in shock at Nicole saying that Rough Copy were the best group they have ever had on the show??? What about One Direction or JLS?? Rough Copy are not fit to lick their boots and are not even in the same league imo. What a silly comment to make. ;D

Did watch the last ten minutes of the results show and thought both acts were dire - justified my decision not to watch the rest of it this week Since when is there a judges' vote on the semi final? Sharon appparently stormed off after the show supposedly because Gary had a go at her for not putting RC through - knew she wouldn't, she hasn't liked them from the start. Louis didn't look very happy when Luke went through - WTF?? Shame on you and Dee for lining SC's pockets and voting Next week is so predictable - Luke 3rd, Nicholas 2nd then Sam as winner - don't think there's going to be a Joey type shock unfortunately
