I'm supporting Escala in the final. Yet Faryl will obviously win. So predictable....

I couldn't agree more, Ash! Though I think tomorrow's final is going to be kind of pointless in a sense for half of the acts there because they know there is an act that is more popular than them, and in all likelihood, another four. I think Escala are going to win it, they're fantastic.

It either George, Faryl, Andrew or Escala. Andrew doesn't deserve it he milks being bullied to much.

Also, that streak of the "last performer is first through" struck again tonight, 5 in a row! You'd think the producers would try and avoid that kind of thing, again...

george should win!
ar i felt sly for per diem tonight,
you could tell they were nervous so the singing wasnt going to be the best and what do they expect? getting 2 buzz's you would want to run off crying.. your voice will obviously go worse,
and tbh it wasnt that bad i thought it was okay, but not the best so i think the right people got in the top 3

but i dont like dance acts like nemesis, they bore me
george is solo but makes it more interesting and he deserves to win it more than them all!

I was fairly disappointed with the overall standard tonight.On the basis of the auditons. I really expected this to be the best semi final so far but most of the acts were below par.

I'm very pleased with the two that got through, thought those were the two standout acts on the night.Escala were just magnificent and made a very wise choice on the music to perform.Nemesis came up with a very good routine but I was still left slightly wanting more.

I thought Craig was funny but not quiet as good as his audition.The best impression he did on the night was Enrique,the one's of Barry White and Shirley Bassey didn't quite sound right to me.

Per Diem were the biggest letdown for me.I thought their audition was really good but the nerves got to them on the big stage and they were out of tune pretty much throughout the song.I'd have liked them to have done an original song rather than another cover too.

I was a bit surprised at Diva Las Vegas.It just seemed to centre around the one woman singing with the others just dancing around in the background, until they came on for the main woman's change.She wasn't a strong enough singer to do it alone and it took away the appeal of the act.

Caburlesque had an over the top and very dramatic song and they just ended up coming across as a bit of damp squib against it.It needed to be far more spectacular,to me it just was a bit samey.

Anya Sparks shouldn't have even been in the top 40 in my view.She's just a very sub standard dancer.I bet if it had been a medium or small sized woman then nobody would have thought much of it,most likely just end up getting buzzed 3 times and told to go home.

Madonna came in with a lot of expectation and she just badly failed to deliver on the night.The good spots were few and far between and the rest was just all over the place.I know she's got a tough job supporting a family but the sob story just was shoved down the viewers throats and it became a bit too much.

Fantastic opinions, Dan. I'd have to agree fully (you're now my BGT alter-ego, by the way). I'd also add that I was surprised with the way Per Diem acted upon their performance, especially the taller guy. He came across a bit too moody. I know the nerves must have kicked in, but for me at least, it detracted from the whole 'likeability' aspect.

yea... i totally agree with u dan, and ash too. BGT alter-ego haha.... Per diem was definitley a let down, felt a bit sympathetic for them though, Escala were amazing like i expected them to be and nemesis, err they are okay but for me its def. b/w Escala (im so used to saying scala..haha) and George.... Faryl is amazing but even if she doesnt win BGT im absolutley positive that she will have one hell of a singing career

thanks.

I totally agree with regards to Per Diem.It was kind of a childish reaction to being buzzed.I know nerves played a part but it certainly didn't do them any favours.

Kate & Gin all the way for me, supported them since auditions. No way am I going to just ditch them like that. I'll stand by them 100%.
