The bookies seem to think its Faryl. But from every site I've been on,the public is behind George much more than Faryl.

*fingers crossed*

Escala - 6/4

Hugo

Everyone on the forum, go for a mass vote and support George if you want him to win, he deserves it. I will be voting loads.

I really liked Escala's performance tonight so I'm tempted to will them to win.
I am also partial to Nemisis... soooo... who knows.

Obviously the latter won't win.

Out of the 'favourites' - George definitely deserves it.

Princess
31-05-2008, 10:29 AM
The thing with Escala is they've already got the contacts-they've supported McFly on tour,they've done loads of seperate things together-tours,west end and such not. I know they're talented but they're already pretty successful without Britain's Got Talent.

This competition is supposed to be a chance in a lifetime type thing and that's why I think George should win-he is amazingly talented,he needs it! I think he deserves it more than anyone.

Cheeky Monkeys to win!

They are so Cute. Awwwwwwwwwwww :hello:

Spike
31-05-2008, 06:01 PM
The Cheeky Monkeys weren't that good, there are thousands of kid who can do that. They have no chance of winning

Xander
31-05-2008, 06:03 PM
I really don't want a singer to win tonight, because theres already Xfactor for those type of people.

Sam
31-05-2008, 06:06 PM
I thought that was a really average attempt at that song.

Chri$
31-05-2008, 06:06 PM
That Plumber bloke was okay but not enough to win IMO

Spike
31-05-2008, 06:08 PM
He wasn't that good, thats one singer who wont win.

I also hope a singer doesn't win.

Sam

I didn't think Kate & Gin werent that great tonight, even though i wanted them to do well.
They had a few mucks up.

Spike
31-05-2008, 06:17 PM
Kate and Gin were good but there was a few mistakes.

Nicky.
31-05-2008, 06:17 PM

Spike
31-05-2008, 06:46 PM
Andrew was good but I don't like him because he keeps using his sympathy story to get in the votes. There is no need to keep telling people he was bullied, we know that now sing and we will judge him on that

*mazedsalv**
31-05-2008, 06:56 PM
The contestants all have to pick 1 of the 2 performances that they have already done. Thats why Andrew sang the same one from the audition because I think it was better than the semi finale one. And Georges best one was from the semi finale so he chose to do that one instead of his audition one.

-sexy-sausage-
31-05-2008, 06:57 PM
any way... i bet a singing will win... i bet u all a singer will win... x

She does have an amazing voice but shouldn't she be on X-factor which is for singing, Like I rather have a non singer get a better chance of wining.

Thats what I dont get, if he stuck to his previous, he would of done better. And Faryl just sang the same one from her audition. Its only been Andrew that did a different one. Cheeky Monkey's one was quite similar but not completely similar to their previous one.

Chrizzle
31-05-2008, 07:03 PM
Faryl was amazing- but pretty much what everyone else said. A non singer to win please. A non singer maybe named George?:thumbs:

Kate and Gin are going to win, shh :)

That girl is so cute. Shes so shy, but on stage shes just great

Maybe yea.. he needed to top something he'd done.. maybe not sing a brand new thing x

I think why everyone is saying George did the same thing twice is because its stuck in there minds from the 1st time.. x

Kate and Gin did there 1st one almost identically.. and Faryl & Andrew

And i missed the Cheeky monkeys.. x

So yeaa .. George to win! x

*mazedsalv**

31-05-2008, 07:07 PM
Please Kate and Gin! It would be brilliant if they won.

If not, George to win.

Just not Andrew Johnson. He winds me up.

Other than that, everyones been really good!

Ross
31-05-2008, 07:08 PM
Kate and Gin, Faryl or Escala I want to win.

Mostly Kate and Gin.
I'd be happy with ANYONE except George Sampson. He's irritating.

Chrizzle
31-05-2008, 07:10 PM
Escala are just eugh. I think theyve got certainly the right look, but I hate violins so much. They are so scratchy.

It took me 23 attempts to get through to voting for Kate & Gin.

Bells
31-05-2008, 07:30 PM
My God, I don't know who's going to win! It's really close between 5-6 acts - they've proven themselves to be world-class. I just hope those who don't make it still continue to get better, and it isn't the last we see of them.

The ones most likely to win, and the ones that stood out for me are Escala (great Royal Variety act), Signature (lots of talent - especially the MJ impersonator, and they bring fun to the show), Kate & Gin (Gin's just the most amazing dog ever), Andrew Johnston (his newfound confidence might work in his favour), George (so determined and talented - I only wish he'd saved his performance till tonight, but I guess he really wanted to make sure he got into the final), and Faryl (what a voice).

Chrizzle
31-05-2008, 07:31 PM
I might vote Kate and Gin

That dog:lovedup:

Ash your never on MSN :(

Arneldo
31-05-2008, 07:32 PM
George to win! Save routine, but he topped his last preformance. Incredable.

Sadly, I think Escala will win. They were much better tonight then last, I think, ut I think george was way better and I think he deserves to win the most. I cannot vote from R.O.I but I'll have my fingers crossed.

Princess
31-05-2008, 07:33 PM
I usually comment throughout but I was glued to the seat so....


Cheeky Monkeys-My god,those kids are adorable! They're great,no chance of winning but what an experience!

Andrew Muir-He was ok but he has no chance in my opinion,compared to other acts he wasn't great and I argee about the song

Kate and Gin-The novelty of it still hasn't worn off! Fabulous!

Strike-YUM!

Nemisis-Prefered their semi but it was great considering they only had 24 hours!

Andrew-He's gotten better,lovely performance

George-He was PHNOMENAL! I want him to win SO much,he just puts his heart and soul into every move and it was just amazing,incredible! I hate fecking Ireland at the moment cos I'd be broke in a second to get him to win!

Faryl-She was fantastic,especially that huge note at the end. I think she's George's biggest competition.

Escala-I have a problem with Escala in that it's what they do for a living and they're obviously going to be brilliant because it's what they do for a living,I don't think they should be there.

Signature-Loved it,if George wasn't there I would probably want these two to win.

GEORGE TO WIN!

Isn't it SO annoying! Gah. I spammed people on Bebo to vote TT in the Brits but that took a good 4 hours and the results are in a hour-so somehow I don't think it'll work for George...

31-05-2008, 07:39 PM
I was quite annoyed that George never tweaked his performance and just basically did what he did the other night. The other acts (except the singers which is impossible obviously) tweaked their performances that they had done in previous rounds. I did want George or Escala to win, I now want just Escala to win.

I also really don't get the hype around Signature. For me its a seen it once, seen it all act and I didn't really rate it first time round.

Sam
31-05-2008, 07:39 PM
I'm guessing it will be Escala... I just have a gut feeling.

Arneldo
31-05-2008, 07:42 PM
I was a little disappointed that George did the same routine, but it's understandable. it must be so hard to choreograph a new routine in less then a week.

However, the singers I'm annoyed with. Faryl, Andrew could have easily preformed a new and different song - but didnt.

Thats a silly comment to make. Its like saying particular people shouldn't enter X Factor because they already sing for a living. They might do it for a living but this has taken them into the mainstream and they have just as much right to be there as anyone else.

Sam
31-05-2008, 07:42 PM
Just think how many people are watching, my guess is around 15m at peak tonight. So just imagine how many people are voting after they see these acts, no wonder it took me so long to vote.

Cheeky Monkeys-I like them a bit more now, they were very sweet but i think there were better acts tonight tbh!

Andrew Muir-Nothing special tbh. He has a nice voice but thats about it for me, i prefered his semi preformance i think the song suited him better than this one.

Kate and Gin- I love them, there different they both done really well tonight!

Strike-I like their six packs lool! They done well tonight they make martial arts entertaining and i like how they do their acts at the same time as the music effects!

Nemisis-I love them so much. I doubt they will win but theres still hope i guess. I loved their new outfits aswell. Good Luck to them.

Andrew-Ive started to like him more now that hes more confident. I think he did an amazing job. I cant beleive im saying this but i actually dont mind if he wins tonight.

George- Wow! He did such an amazing job tonight. I know he did the same routine and everything but he did it 10 times better. Hope we wins he deserves it! :tongue:

Faryl-I didnt see much of her preformance but no doubt she was good i suppose. Dont really want her to win tbh. Oh but i did hear her finally mention her mum at last lol.

Escala-I think they were by far one of the best tonight. And i loved thier dresses (i want one lol). I also wouldnt mind if they won. Oh and btw how catchy is that song lol ive got it in my head right now lol. Da Da Da Da Da Dadada! :whistle: lol.

Signature-Ive never thought THAT much of them in the past but my gosh they were excellent tonight. I was dancing in my chair and cheering for them. They done really well and they were so entertaining!

Overall i think it was a good show! Nemesis, Andrew (opera boy), George, Signiture or Escala to win! x

I agree, but I don't count them anyway because I'm anti-singers on BGT in the first place.

I don't think it would have been that hard for George to add a few changes into his routine, it could have stayed largely the same like Escala and Signature but he could have changed it a bit.

I can imagine them releasing a chain of crazily successful albums around the world and being like Il Divo.. and I think they'll be suited to Royal Variety, so yeah I think Escala.

The other acts (except the singers which is impossible obviously) tweaked their performances that they had done in previous rounds. I did want George or Escala to win, I now want just Escala to win.

I also really don't get the hype around Signature. For me its a seen it once, seen it all act and I didn't really rate it first time round.

I loved Signature's audition, but obviously they can never beat that 'surprise' element. I don't think they expected to pick up such a large fanbase from it. I think they're a lot of fun, are clearly talented dancers (especially the MJ impersonator), and the fact that they have day jobs but they do this for fun adds to their talent.

And I agree about George. I love him loads, but I think as I mentioned earlier, I really wish he'd saved his performance till tonight. He probably would've had a massive shot at winning then! I guess he desperately wanted to get to the finals, but to be honest I think he would've done anyway.

I think had he had changed it slightly, it wouldnt have worked in sync with the music.

Anyone else find it weird when Andrew Muir said he had no choice but to sing "Imagine"? Made me think about how much control the producers have over the performers.

Lauren
31-05-2008, 07:55 PM
Escala let me down somewhat. Had they produced another performance like last night I'd be willing them to win.

However - personally, I'd LOVE signature to win - but we all know they're not going to.

So from the favourites I'm supporting George. :dance2:

First of all I've got to say what an excellent final that was, to have 5 acts as good as that just goes to show their is talent in the country.I just cannot predict who will win,there's something there for most people's taste.

Cheeky Monkeys-They are really sweet kids and bring a lot of fun and energy to the show but they just aren't my sort of thing.I believe you could probably find kids of an equal or even better ability than them.

Andrew Muir-I thought Simon and Amanda were a bit harsh on him, I certainly don't feel he murdered the song but it wasn't anything but an average performance.I've heard plenty of others cover that song on talent shows and done a much better job.He's got a pleasant voice but that's about it.

Kate & Gin-The dog is wonderful and Kate seems to like such a likeable person.I think they have done better in the past but it's still a great dog.and I've not seen one better.

Strike-They showed a great amount of athleticism and are obviously very dedicated but there's not a great deal of difference between any of the routines.The sound effects were a bit cheesy in my view.

Nemesis-They were certainly better last night but it's understanble seeing as they didn't have much time to prepare.I still think it was a pretty good routine and they have done themselves proud.

Andrew Johnstone-This was the best perfromance that he's given yet, even surpassed what he did at the auditions.I'm glad to see him show more confidence when he's performing.The only worry is when his voice breaks!

George Sampson-I was surprised that he did the same routine again.I know just how spectacular he was the other night and probably felt he couldn't top it but I wanted to see him try.Although he did aswell this time it just felt a little bit flat for me.

Faryl Smith-I'm stunned at how that voice comes out of a 12 year old girl.She just seems to keep getting better and whether or not she wins, there will be a great career after this.Just an exceptional voice.

Escala-They were outstanding yet again, they just seemed to ooze self belief and it looks almost effortless for them.A class act.

Signature-I was a bit worried that with the element of surprise gone it would take away the appeal of the act but they made up for that lack of surprise with a great routine.They always manage to bring a smile to my face and they have put themselves in with a good chance of winning.

I felt the standard was well up on last years final and it's just a shame that only one act can win and go on to perform at the Royal Variety show.

I just really hope George wins this, but it's looking like he won't. :sad:

If he doesn't win I'll be happy with any act apart from the Cheeky Monkeys and the singers.

Please NOT another singer. :sleep:

George.....what a liberty.

I think most contestants will do well, Scala and faryl will definately get signed and so will Andrew maybe, It's opened doors for most of them I think.

Escala/Faryl will benefit loads anyway. I think they'd have had an unfair advantage in winning overall. Having said that, I did expect Escala to win.

Andrew clearly picked up a massive fanbase, and well done to him. He doesn't seem to radiate star quality like George does though. I still wish George had saved his performance till tonight, but it didn't matter in the end. His determination and talent got him through! And I have always been a fan of Signature, so I'm really glad they were the runners-up.

Overall, I'm really pleased George won.

Looking around at other forums it seems that people are voting on the fact that they "don't want another singer to win" which is a shame. People should be voting on talent, rather than who won last year.

Really? #20? Thats really good, I understand though because if its played during shows that get massive ratings then people download it. Eg. When Hope sang Hurt from Christina Aguilera last year in the X factor(which was a bit bad singing) it went to #39 and that was a whole year after the song was released.

My god! Those are amazing ratings! I wonder how much percentage George won by.

I won €18.75 on George,but I should have waited longer I bet €5 at 11/4 if I bet the fiver at 20/1 I would have won €100! But anyways,I'm far more pleased for George winning than I am about winning some money.
