Yes I was glued to the show again last night, it’s my one bit of relaxation.

• Niki should be left to sing without all the dance routines.  I know it was disco week this week and her performance was powerful, but what had they done to her hair. 

She didn’t look comfortable with the ’sexy’ moves around the dancers.  For goodness sake Louis, leave her to sing her heart out, like she does so well. 

But take care of the really high notes, they (like Beverley below) can sound a bit ’shouty’.

• Leon’s best week this week. I didn’t get to see the whole performance, although I heard it from the kitchen. One of the comments was about his dancing.  I would agree with this.  Like I said last time his ‘dancing’ is not natural, very wooden and pulls his performance down.  But well done Leon anyway.

• Same Difference.  This wasn’t their best week, but as we found out at the end of the song, they had had to change the song and routine really close to the live show.  They only had a few hours to rehearse.  It wasn’t the right song for them, but they still pulled off an entertaining performance.

• Hope.  They are getting so much stronger and I loved their routine last night.  I like that Abba song anyway, but I think it was the best choice of song out of all the acts last night.  They are beginning to gel so well and what a voice Phoebe has.  They did not deserve to be in the bottom two last night, but thank goodness they are still in the competition.

• Alisha.  It’s such a shame for Alisha.  Her singing was flat, but I think nerves had kicked in.  Perhaps she knew she may be in the bottom two and I think rightfully last night.  She has a great look and I think with the right songs she can still be good, a bit like Gabriel.

• Beverley.  This was a great choice of song for her, although once again, I did think it was a bit ’shouty’ on the high notes.  I really like Beverley and I disagreed with Simon’s comments about her outfit.  I thought she looked fab. 

• Rhydian.  Not the best song for him, although I love Go West.  Mind you I am a big Pet Shop Boys fan.I hope Dannii doesn’t do anything stupid with his next song, he needs another ‘Phantom’ performance to put him back on top again.  Still think he’s great though and out of all the acts I look forward to him the most, followed by Hope. 

Actually, I would loved to have heard Rhydian singing this in his style.

It’s a shame Sharon has no one left in the competition now, but I’m still not sure she picked the best three to begin with. 

I also think that with the competition hotting up, the judges comments are going to start getting silly again.  Considering it was disco week, Simon kept commenting on how people looked, yet look at how Hope were dressed.

It’s also going to be time for them to ‘dis’ each others acts so their’s will be in the final.  Currently the top three I think should be in the final are Rhydian, Hope and either Niki or Beverley.

The judges should concentrate on their singing and overall performance and give them some better songs not only for their voices but for the ‘watchability’ factor.
