1. Danielle - showed a completely different side to her and had the most difficult performance to conquer.
2. Steph - consistently good.
3. Stephanie - she must have pissed someone off to get given that song, but still ok.
4. Sophie - still think shw could give a lot more.
5. Lauren - really over acted.
6. Jenny - seems like a nice girl but I don't like her voice
7. Jessica - where do I start?? She just gets progrssively worse

1. Jessica - amazing, the whole performance.

I found it so hard to choose the top 3, they all did amazing.
I thought Jenny was good (don't really like her) but she sounded really nasal..?
I love Stephanie too, but she just didn't do it for me.
I'm not even keen on Danielle but she's completely turned me around this week, Jessica is still my absolute favourite!

Although Stephanie is usually one of my favourites the song didn't do her many favours, I don't think she deserves to be in the bottom 2 either. They were all pretty good though

1. Lauren she was outstanding
2. Danielle finally saw something other than serious and introverted
3. Jessica born to play Liza in her life story ofcourse
4. Steph she is a fab performer
5 Sophie lovely song lack luster performance, but when is that Big Band
6 Stephanie that song is pants and she was unlucky to get it
7 Jenni better than last week but didnt like it.

Sophie and Jenni in the sing off Stephanie has given great performances every week until this one.......Sophie and Jenni havent so should be in the bottom 2.

Stephanie - Biased, but I did love it despite the awful choice of song which I really hope isn't an attempt to get rid of her!

Danielle - Next closest to Dorothy after Stephanie - despite the song which was irrelevant both to Dorothy and to Danielle. At least she had fun.

Lauren - Sang well, didn't let Jessie's amazing version intimidate her. Acted well too, and seems to get on well with Stephanie, messy as she is!

Steph - Amazing talent - not as Dorothyish, but I'd love to see her in the West End sometime too. Not an easy vocal showcase, but she managed well.

Sophie - Pretty vocals, she fluffed a line or two but deilivered the song well from a singing point of view, even if her acting needs work - she's not the only one.

Jenny - Another one whose acting needs work - didn't notice any real vocal errors, but wasn't blown away by her and think she should be eliminated soon.

Jessica - Her vocal problems didn't seem to affect her performance too much - her voice just isn't as good as the others'. Strong performer for something less musical though.

Stephanie to win!

1. Danielle. Just awesome.
2. Lauren
3. Jessica. Much better this week!
4. Sophie
5. Steph.
6. Jenny
7. Stephanie. Really hard song for her to interpret.

I thought they all performed well this week!

1. Lauren - I thought she was excellent.
2. Danielle - but any of the girls would have done as well.
3. Stephanie
4. Jenny
5. Jessica
6. Sophie - not a big band song, unfair to her again
7. Steph - I was surprised the judges raved about it.

1. Danielle - Performance of the series for me. It was so playful, so unlike anything she's done so far. I just didn't want it to end!

2. Steph - Probably the most consistent girl in the contest.

3. Jessica - Finally she's given her fans something to rave about! Boy did she mean business. She belted out this number and it suited her perfectly.

4. Lauren - I thought she over-acted the start of the song but got better and better as the performance went on. I was truly wowed by the end of it. Still find Lauren difficult to connect to as a person though. She's a bit too clinical for me.

5. Stephanie - Now I totally connect with her and find her warm and genuine and bubbly, but this was probably her weakest performance so far. It's such a shame as Mr Bojangles is my favourite big band number, but Stephanie's interpretation was very confused. I just couldn't get into it.

6. Sophie - Pretty girl with a pretty voice. But it ends there. She doesn't seem to have that extra something special to stand out and shine. She's fading fast and it's a pity because she's a sweet lass and I had high hopes for her at the start. Maybe it is nerves getting the better of her but if she still hasn't managed to control them, I'm not sure she ever will.

7. Jenny - No one was bad this week. But this was my least favourite and least memorable performance.

1. Danielle - my favourite from day one and she just gets better and better.
2. Lauren - really, really good. Just fantastic.
3. Jessica - she's not usually one of my favourites at all, but she was very good tonight.
4. Steph - think she could be on dangerous ground tonight being on first but still good.
5. Jenny - She didn't stand out tonight.
6. Sophie - not quite sure what went wrong.
7. Stephanie - really, really don't 'get' her.

danielle. weird, but brilliant
Stephanie. although a daft song for a 17 year old she did very well. She does have a nice voice
Lauren. didn't enjoy watching her much becuase she looked like she had a tummy ache. I enjoyed the singing.
Jessica. Tyed with Lauren. fun performence.

sophie and jenny. not sure. both did well, but not my cup of tea.

I was disappointed by Stephanie...horrible song, but she's been growing on me over the weeks.

Ooops, I'm so sorry everyone as I just created an identical thread without seeing this one!

Will ask the Mods to merge the two.

1. Lauren - amazing tonight
2. Danielle - also very very good
3. Stephanie - difficult song but I thought she gave it a good go ...
4. Steph -
5. Jess - excellent at Caberet, but sorry I think she's a one trick pony, and she hasn't wowed me any other week ...
6. Sophie - judges were hard on her, her voice is gorgeous but comparing her to the others I guess she didn't act as much as she could have done ...
7. Jenny - feel really worried about her ... had the dreaded second slot and I think she'll be forgotten in the voting ... her performance was actually really good, I just think that at this stage she's in danger of getting pushed to the side ...

I reckon the judges want Sophie gone this week and then next week they'll start on Jenny ...

1. Steph - just the best - again!
2. Jessica - amazing, what a convincing, mature performance. Wow.
3. Sophie - I love the song, and loved the way she sang it, so much pathos and vulnerability, she made it her own even though it's such a famous song and I really felt her emotion.
4. Danielle - for the first time, she came alive for me - SO much better this week! - she looked like she was letting go and enjoying it, all the tension was gone. More like that please Danielle!
5. Jenny - she was OK, but not much more than.
6. Stephanie - I don't know, was it the song, or her? It just didn't feel right, I couldn't enjoy it. I usually love her, so I was surprised and disappointed.
7. Lauren - Lauren is a fantastic singer, one of the best, no question, but I just can't stop seeing that she's acting and it ruins her performances, her facial expressions are too contrived for my tastes.

1) Lauren - Wow! Her vocal and her acting was amazing! Lauren has to win!
2) Danielle - We actually saw her fun side this week and she performed really well!
3) Steph - So, so much choreography - I was impressed! When she jumped into all the guys arms :O
4) Stephanie - This was her worst week but her voice is so nice to listen to and it was a really tough song to sing!
5) Sophie - She is so cute but I agree with the panel, if she had smiled more in the song then I would have enjoyed it more!
6) Jenny - It was just a bit boring for big band week! I wanted to get blown away by Jenny but I didn't!
7) Jessica - I can't help but compare her to Rachel's Cabaret performance from I'd Do Anything! Jessica just doesn't have the voice for Dorothy! Her faces are really off putting as well!

1 - Lauren: very difficult song, spectacular performance
2 - Danielle: a bit of a an easy ride in the peformance stakes because of all the theatricals which gives her an advantage over the other girls but still one of my favourite performances to date
3 - Jessica: surprised me a lot, great performance from her tonight
4 - Stephanie: the judges obviously want rid - Bojangles! I ask you
5 - Steph: didn't really like it, didn't really compare to other versions I have seen/heard
6 - Jenny: not as good as I expected, she hasn't really lived up to her performance in show 1 for me and is quite nasal in tone
7 - Sophie: it was 'nice' but not very charismatic

1. Lauren - quality, as per usual
2. Danielle - bit off on the vocals but couldn't stop watching it
3. Steph - solid in singing, dancing, acting yet again
4. Jess - song suited her down to the ground and she really went for it
5. Jenny - her voice sounded completely different to normal, lovely rich vocals, acting bit of a let down
6. Stephanie - normally love her but tonight didn't get any sparkle
7. Sophie - as much as I liked her from the beginning, it's time for her to go

1. Danielle - First performance I've liked from her, I really enjoyed it.
2. Lauren - Just brilliant.
3. Stephanie - Not a great song but she did alright with it, hope she stays.
4. Steph - Not as good as she has been but still good.
5. Jenny - She did better than I expected with the song and it's not the worst version I've heard.
6. Jessica - Her voice just isn't as good as I'd expect at this point in the competition. That and her facial expressions are always offputting.
7. Sophie - I was just left bored.
