Mine is a cross between Shani Wallis and Georgia Brown. I think that Shani gave the sensitive performance and Georgia had the voice. However, as a youngster I do think both these women appear matronly. Don't forget this is not a Roman Polanski remake. This is a Lionel Bart 60's production. It does not need to be close to the book. I don't want my Nancy looking emaciated and ill. I want her to look like the tart with the heart, blousy, ballsy and buxom.

Francesca's or possibly Keisha's vocal tone, with Sarah's vocal ability and chemistry with the boys with Rachel's acting ability, with Jodie's warmth and Samantha's movement and with Jessie's look.
BUT
the reactionary public looks set to stymie that plan
AND
will then moan in December when Jodie turns out to be a motherly rather than a sisterly Nancy.
We're on the same wavelength I think
oh yes definitely Sarah's 'Meryl Streep' eyes too.
Rachel's acting & look
Jodie's warmth & general likability
Last night it was Rachel. She was fabulous and rivals Jodie for my performance of the series. After the acting task (and I do think the producers have made a HUGE mistakes by not denoting more time to it), I now think Jessie. Plus, I loved her reaction to making the final. It was a refreshing change from the "tears of joy" we normally see in these competitions. :rolleyes: It reminded me of the part of Shirley McClane's Oscar winning speech when she said "I deserve this!
However, it could all change on the night. I love both Jessie and Jodie's voices, but for different reasons. However, neither of them are the most graceful of dancers. Sam definitely has the weakest voice but, she does move well around the stage. So, I think it's going to come down to song choice and choreography.
That's spot on for me! plus Sam's dancing and stage presence thrown in for good measure.
If that was their real idea then why put people through who so clearly don't fulfil that criteria??
I think that whole Winehouse thing was pr to get public interest.
You stole my idea:eek: She's perfect for the role....steal her from Eastenders. NOW.
it will be a complete farce if Jessie wins
Agreed!
