Last week, we saw the elimination of Craig Colton and a tight sing-off between The Risk and Drew, with Drew coming out victorious as we lost The Risk...

Fighting for your votes tonight are:
Kuda_Kunaka and the Boys
Reece Mastin
Soppyfan and the Girls
Janet Devlin

Christina Parie
Noonan15 and the Over 25s
Mitchell Callaway
Stacy Francis

Lakoda Rayne
Yohinnchild and the Wildcards

Tonight we also meet our MYSTERY JUDGE who will be sharing his opinions and verdict on the acts performance in a completely anonymous manner and trust me when I say, he will help the judges improve so much if they listen to his advice! Here's a quick message from the man (or lady) him/herself:
Judges are you ready? If so we can begin!

Quick introduction: Hola yes my name is mystery judge and I have tried to be as constructive as possible with the performances tonight just so you can improve and btw I am only ever truly harsh if the song really does deserve it. Luckily you've all avoided the wrath of that this week. One mentor outshone the others tonight btw and you should really take notes on that mentor
Judges are you ready? If so we can begin!

We are gonna bring it tonight!
Will be interesting to see who the Mystery Judge is championing!
Up first we go to Steve’s Girls! It’s the Irish beauty who just can’t stop living in garden valleys (Wait... valleys are for Wales... moving swiftly on)...! Please welcome Janet Devlin!

Janet, you are just a beauty. Last week I wasn`t keen on your performance, but this week I just loved it. Your vocals were beautiful and I could just listen to you singing this all day. I`ve used this a lot but your were just simply beautiful and your staging was also nicely done. Thank you so much for being in this competition. You won`t be leaving tonight!!
I think the past two shows you have been one of the stand out performers, however whilst I thought you sung the song well, I did find the song a little bit dull. The themes haven't helped in terms of getting a lot off diverse and different songs for acts and I think it is now beginning to show up as I would like to see you move away slightly from this style and give us something a little bit different. This is something very much in your comfort zone and plays to your strengths. I don't think you will be in trouble tonight as you have a good following, however next time I just want to see you to give us a performance that will firstly wow us again and secondly be a bit of a departure from what we're used to seeing from you.

P.S. Judges feel free to reply to Mystery Judge comments I'll pass them on for you
Declan....I strangely liked that performance. It was quite scary but it suited you well and your vocals were very nice. It does feel like your getting a bit predictable, but I think you should stay with performances like this because I`m loving your performances. I think you should take a few risks, but you should be safe tonight!!
That was another stunning performance by you my SYKES and I have to say you are just a pleasure to mentor and work with. You have such a good style and a great tone to your voice and you just manage to switch it on in every performance. There were some comments a week or so ago about you looking a little uncomfortable on stage; however for me that isn't the case and whilst your performance style and general style is unique and different it totally works for you. I hope people continue to support you, I'm actually overwhelmed that you have got support the last few weeks and I really hope the voters continue to get behind you. There is so much more to come from you so please VOTE DECLAN SYKES!!!

I know you've just sung your heart out but I seriously have to ask is that song actually a ballad? I thought you sung it well and you do have an amazing voice; however I do find some of your song choices slightly dated ; like your week 1 performance it was good, however I think you're lacking a modern edge being relevant. If you're back next week I want you to come out and deliver something a little more current. This week though the song did have a certain wow factor which could well see you through but with so many other performances to come I think you could get lost in the mix.
Stacy that was ok.....that`s all I can say because you`ve been the same every week so it`s just looking which ballad you`re going to do next. I know it`s ballads but I am just sick of seeing you singing the same time of song. Also that seemed repetitive and didn`t go anywhere. I may seem harsh but I think better acts have left over you in the previous shows. If you stay next week you need to do something different. I think your in trouble!!

Kitty you have done it again. I absolutelly loved it. It sounded just likie you and I couldn`t take my eyes off you and your voice. This is by far your best performance so far, and I really think you will reach the final if you carry on with performances like that. I can`t wait for your performance next week. You will not be leaving!!
Last week your comments were pretty 50/50 and I agree the song choice possibly didn't play to your strengths as an artist; however tonight you totally smashed it! The amount of thought and feelings you put into those lyrics was amazing. The thing with you Kitty is that your such a unique artist and I think you could put your own spin on anything and therefore whenever you take the stage it always feels as though we are watching your own concert as opposed to one act in a show. You're diverse, you've got a great voice and I hope people continue to support you tonight so we can see more of what you can do. VOTE KITTY!!!!

Christina you have been my favourite outside my category up to now, and I didn`t even watch x-factor OZ. This just didn`t feel like you, and through the performance I was waiting for those big notes that I know you for but it just didn`t happen. I never thought I would be saying this to you, but I think you may be in trouble!!
