I was thinking there weren't many good acts, but there's a good four or five in this show that may easily have gone through in another - Spellbound the standouts, Tobias Mead, Olivia Archbold, Threebee, Josh Barry. But we'll see.
Simon reckons he'll be using the buzzer a lot ... I might too.
First out: Bollywood dancers Threebee: full of energy, nice Bollywood slant on the Bee Gees, a good mix of different styles, not as tight as maybe it should be - not sure it wil be enough but too soon to tell, Piers "you may have just danced into the final"!
Olivia Archbold next and I loved the song she chose last time - let's hope she doesn't go karaoke tonight. Ooh, Simon just said that! And it's a song not many people know - no, I don't know it but it's a confident performance, although her voice isn't as sweet as the first time round. She's very choked (it's a Kate Winslet song?) and I think that maybe affected her. Ah, the key change, singing from her chest as Simon and Amanda said. No, I preferred the audition performance.
Kevin Cruise *BBBBBBUUUUUZZZZZZZZ* Dear God Almighty, that took me back to holiday camps and not in a good way. And what was all that with the thrusting? Urgh. Amanda needs a shrink.
Stevie Starr: Now Amanda's paying the price, ha ha! If he does pull this off, I will be quite impressed. Although how do we know he didn't have that one prepared earlier? And still just another trick at the end of the day, has to be. See, brought up a phone he prepared earlier. Not something I relish seeing again.
Tobias Mead going for risky, something we haven't seen before. Great timing, super - loving the work with the ball, however that was done, very different, threw in a bit of pole dancing - excellent job, well done Tobias. Creative and inspired, says Piers. Outstanding, says Simon. My vote so far.
Sean Sheehan, a wood chopper? The sweat could make the chopper slip out of his hand and head for the judges. No worries, Amanda's got it covered ... *BBBBUUUUZZZZ* For God's sake buzz Piers, before he takes his hand off.
Josh Barry - again, song choice will be crucial and oh, he's gone for Neyo's Closer, brave, but not carrying it off, unfortunately. Picked it up a bit in the chorus, good dance moves, but vocally weak overall. Shame. Amanda's deaf as well as mad.
Spellbound - will have to go some to top their first performance - OMG - they just did, completely fantastic - the two girls at the front near the end, how on earth did they pull off that move. Unbelievable. Love the fire and ice theme too! It truly is spellbinding. Could we imagine you gracing the Royal Variety Show? Damn right! Sorry Tobias - have to make sure one of you makes it and trust the judges to put you through.
I'm watching Glee now, results will have to wait! So picking them up from Twitter - where would we be without it - Spelbound straight through, Tobias and Olivia up in front of the judges, Tobias goes through! But I missed Diversity, which is a bummer, so I'm off to hunt them down on youtube or the BGT website. Caio. Ok, found it on the BGT website - enjoy it again!
