That's the guy. I laughed when he did that.

Lots of people might say I would do it but then they would bottle it at the time, but he did it. Good on him for having the confidence and the bottle to do it.

I've spent a fortune going to see the Joes, and have seen a fair few marias and nancies along the way. Will go to the show for sure.

Saw Danny Baine who won Grease is the word today in hairspray(didnt go to see him especially...).

Lol I'd probably do what Seamus did, but at the same time make it clear that I wasn't trying to be disrespectful to my fellow contestants, unless there were any in particular that I didn't like

I've applied for tickets this year, and am hoping to see the show in the West End too. I've been to plenty of XF tours etc, but never seen a star from one of ALW's searches live before, although I've always enjoyed watching them. I would love to go to the TV studio with a banner supporting Stephanie Davis, as I spent time with her at a previous audition and she's fab!

I thought Lauren was the best this week.

I loved their version of "Merry Old Land of Oz".

Really didn't like Emilie's, Jessica's or Jenny's performances!

Liked the goodbye song but it was a bit cheesey with the moon and the shoes!!

Problem is the two main roles are acting and comedy heavy and more obviously require an awful lot of dancing skill. There's hopefully lots of roles for 20 something attractive blondes with good voices though.”

Like you said you have to have a lot of theatre experience to be cast as a lead especially Roxie or Velma in chicago (Shaw made her west end debut at 9). You have to be extremely talented to get on the West End full stop (which lots of people dont realise). I doubt Amy would be cast in chicago to be honest, the girl who got down to the last 3 in the Maria program only went in as an understudy originally. I can see Amy maybe getting a supporting role in something and building it up from there but i dont see her as a lead immediately in the west end. The top 10 will get supporting roles in things, they'll do well enough out of this.

I saw Lee as Joseph and he was excellent. Also saw TSOM when Aoife was on - she was great, and I think I enjoyed her performance more than I would have Connie's. My daughter saw Oliver and said it was very good with a fantastic set.

Don't know if I'll get to see TWOO.

Yes I do - I think it was Ben but not 100% sure

It was Seamus. Ben's the one who had just kick his ass in the sing off.

Just watched the results show on iplayer, the hd version, and just as Amy sings the last line of Over the rainbow, it flashes to black and I can see a man, it just for a split second. Can any one else see this, or am I seeing things?
