After seeing so many samey acts, Paul the comedien really stood out tonight.

He genuinely made me laugh and he'd be so different to any winner we've had before. A nice guy too.

I'll be voting for him if I'm around to watch the final on Saturday night :)

Who's with me?!

    I'm with you :) Paul Burley is by far my favourite act this year. He's so funny! His Phil Mitchell highlight of the week had me in stitches! :D

    Sorry Sid but have to disagree on this one.

    I found him very boring. I was like is it just me? or am I the only one not finding this funny??

    And I didn't who know half the voices he did were! :confused:

    I would have preferred to have seen The Arrangment (fun, something different) or Chloe (talent factor) ahead of Paul.

    If he had some humour injected into his routine I could understand him coming first but it was all kind of boring to me! :eek::D

    I am! I'd love to see Paul win it, this show needs something that's not a singing or a dancing act to win.

    I loved his set tonight, stepped it up a game and really made me laugh. His Phil Mitchell's TV Highlight of the Week, "Awight" was hilarious. So glad he won the public vote tonight.

    Come on Burling!!

    He'd be a worthy winner Sid but, he's my third fave. :o

    I LOVE Chandi and I really hope she wins. My second faves are Spelbound but, as I said Paul does make my top 3. :)

    I have to agree with you, he was brilliant but the highlight for me was when a friend said to me tonight after watching the show "yes he was great and my fave moment was when he did creature comforts".
    I said what creature comforts lol and she said "you know the little tortoise thing thats on the electrical advert and he gulps"

    It was then i realised she meant the part he did Wallace from wallace and gromit.

    THAT was my highlight of the week :p:p:p PMSL :D

    And I thought you had such good taste too :p

    Only kidding, it was only a matter of time before we disagreed - law of averages!

    Maybe it's because I was seeing Paul's act for the first time that he still held plenty of novelty value for me?

    Funnily enough, it was The Arrangement I couldn't see the fuss about! I just didn't get them at all.

    Hello to all familiar names on this thread :)

    Thats funny, cause I actually liked him a lot and thought he was better in his first audtion!! :D I thought the qaulity and variety of impressions were better, and the content was funnier.

    Hopefully he will reach some sort of happy medium between both performances in the final! :D

    Not on BGT there isn't. First act like him I've seen on the program, and the only impressionist act in the semi-finals....

    He seems pretty good, but I don't know who a lot of his impressions are of.

    Tina and Chandi to win for me now that the Arrangement have gone.

    I was delighted to see him named the winner! I'm sorry if I'm thick, though, but who was he impersonating when he said "Ash, no it's dust"? I just couldn't work out who that was! :o

    Anything but a street dance act,and yes he'd make a good winner.

    Oh, right. cheers for that! Don't watch Little Britain so no wonder I didn't recognise it! The rest were brilliant though! Hope he wins :)

    I like him but he's not my favourite. Very happy to see him in the final but I prefer Spelbound. There were a few impressions I didn't recognize.
