    Love the Cherry Ghost and U2/ BB King tracks!

    Based purely on the song choices and the respective vocalists and nothing else, I'd hazard a guess at the Battle winners being-

    Katie Benbow
    Ash Morgan
    Andrea Begley
    Matt Henry
    LB Robinson
    Cleo Higgins

    Actually it's 6 but it's on Saturday and Sunday this week (Sunday is a 1 hour show) so if it's 6 per show it's all done over 2 weekends

    Just hoping it doesn't become a "Who can shout loudest" contest like last year

    Yeah. It was like a shouting contest last year. Six per episode means a slow show with loads of fillers

    Although I suppose there is the steal, which would take up a little bit of time.

    I agree with you there - please don't let the shouting battles return!
    I can't think how they're going to make 6 battles last so long, there is the steal, but I doubt that could fill up much time.

    According to a DS article, that is what Cleo and Nu-tarna's battle became and Jessie commented on it and said it gave her a headache, but was booed by the audience, lol

    Maybe this time they will show much more feedback. It was lacking in the blinds.

    it's at this stage this show goes down the pan

    singing is not a pugilistic sport, and any singer iv'e ever liked from history would be eliminated by this means

    Ooh good word, and I agree. I don't like upsets either where it just means someone good leaving. This is not fun.

    With regards to tomorrow's show, it was kinda obvious Tom was going to pit Emma Jade and Mike together, seeing as they are the only country singers on his team.

    There are some dreary song choices and obvious ones. Most looking forward to the Conor vs Smith & Jones.

    The picture on the BBC Blog kind of gives away the Leah v. CJ result....

    And disappointed that Nate and Lovelle are against each other, although I would guess that the loser may well get stolen.

    Looks like CJ is still singing to me.

    They've changed the picture from earlier - was a picture of Holly standing between them holding Leah's arm up in the air while CJ looked at the floor...

    If all the pairing spoilers to date are correct, that leaves Nadeem against Karl next week. :(

    Really looking forward to Conor vs. Smith & Jones! Love the song and I think it'll suit Conor's voice really well.

    The others sound a bit underwhelming, some dodgy song choices in there.
