I really don't have a "favourite" from any of the four girls left.

I will vote for whoever impresses me the most though.

Kind of the same. Leaning towards Sophie but I hope she can step it up over the next few weeks.

I'm slightly leaning towards Steph. I just can't believe it's come to this.

I haven't had any strong preferences, the only one I didn't take to was Emilie.

Out of the four left I'd prefer Steph or Sophie to win - if only to rail against the way they manipulated Jenny's exit tonight.

never been overly bothered in this series, i have to say! think it's because the wizard of oz isn't a good stage show, so i won't be off down the yellow brick road to see it any time soon! the other series that ALW has done were for tried and tested theatre productions that he knew would work (particularly joseph, where lee mead pretty much walked into the 1990s palladium show with very few changes to the production!) but i can't see the show doing well at the theatres past its first few months when people will want to see "that girl off the telly"

so frankly, whoever wins i'll be saving my money and going to see something decent. i wish them all luck and do have my favourites, but it's no real biggie to me who wins.

I've not been too bothered over the show, possibly because I never liked the Wizard of Oz anyway. I can say for sure that I DON'T want Steph to win - not because she's no good, but she is just so wrong for the role. Sophie's not the best singer, but she's kind of growing on me. I think Danielle's a bit wooden, so I guess for me it would be between Sophie and Lauren.

It's Sophie or Steph for me. But I can't vote again next week so they'll probably be in a sing off together.

Yeah, I'm not really fussed now that Jessica's gone. I'll keep watching but I won't vote

No, I'm not Scottish so I still have plenty of Dorothys to support

I'm sorry but what does being Scottish have to do with it?

In all the other shows, there has been a clear winner from the start, but I keep changing my mind with this series. All the ones I liked have been knocked out, and I don't have a clue who will win it. I really thought Stephanie would be in the final, but now I don't really care.

Where's your sense of humour?!

OK, you're disappointed that the Scottish Dorothy got knocked out but there are still three excellent performers there plus Sophie who I think isn't quite on the same level. I'll admit all three are English but nobody's perfect

I'm not bothered who wins although personally I think Lauren is least suited to the role. I won't be voting.

It has nothing to do with the fact Jenny has gone out and everything to do with none of the four girls remaining being appealing to me.

I'm not bothered, I like them all, and my favourites are Steph and Lauren but I think both of their talents would be wasted on a role like Dorothy. Sophie and Danielle suit the role better too I'd say.

I enjoyed IDA more than i'm enjoying OTR.

At the start of the live shows i was very excited at the prospect of there not being a clear winner and the drama that would cause, but now i've realised it was the worst possible thing to have to watch for me personally. I guess i like it when there is a clear winner afterall and the drama that hunting them down brings. What i'm seeing now is a group of girls left and any one of them could take the role but at the same time they all have reasons why they shouldn't. None of them have that clear winner feeling to them.

Stephanie was my favourite of the girls but she never reached that "she is my Dorothy" point. Now she is gone i'm left with girls who also haven't reached that "she is my Dorothy" point and i don't think any of them will.

I found it much easier to imagine the girls in IDA as a Nancy than imagining the girls in OTR as a Dorothy. I'm probably just being extremely picky and awkward but in IDA i knew who was my Nancy very early on. She didn't become Nancy so I joined Team Jodie, but could easily have joined Team Somebody else. I'm looking at the girls left and i can't see anybody i want to start rooting for properly. I do care who wins OTR or i wouldn't still be watching but i'm not as excited about it almost being final time as i thought i would be when this started.

That's exactly how I am. I began to lose interest when Bronte went, I had money on her and Stephanie being in the final..

Now, with Jessica going last night, I have so little interest in who wins, I kind of want the series to be done now. Shame really, because it has been my favourite series after the Oliver/Nancy one.
At best, I'd say my favourites now are Lauren and Steph, but I couldn't care if they won or not..

Can I just ask though; didn't Graham say yesterday Jessica was the only one out of the final 5 who hadn't been in the sing-off? Hey ho, who ends up in the sing-off? Jessica. Did I imagine Norton saying that?

Well the only two girls who hadn't been in the sing off before last weekend were Jenny and Jessica .....

I am not bothered now Jenny gone, the way she was stiched up was disgraceful. Maybes that just me ... but its how I feel.

I am Scottish and do like to see Scottish people do well, but from the start of IDA I was team Jodie, thought Ashley was ok but I choose who I liked best and went for it same for OTR.

I'm also not Scottish but I liked Jenny a lot and I was incensed at how she was badly stitched up by AWL... as for the excuse about the dog, we could all see that Jenny was perfectly at home with her dog in last night's VT that should have been shown the previous night!!!!

The girls have 10 months to train to dance for the part and for working with the dog so surely a good voice counts most right now!!!!

I have no interest in who wins now, as ALW is far too manipulative and thinks the public are idiots if they believe what he says!!!

I had a complete turnaround from my favourites and I really like Danielle and Steph now and Danielle bugged me at the beginning. Now Jess has gone I'm thrilled as I really thought she might win it.

I don't think she was bad at all - but for me personally - the mugging and hideous dancing made her not be a Dorothy but she'd be exceptional in other roles.

I was impressed with how she handled her departure too - very gracious.

I don't care now, Bronte went, Stephanie went, Jessica went... stuff that.

Jessica was my all time favourite though, when the other 2 went i thought "Ah, i've still got Jessica!" cos i actually thought she was going to win, really did.

I do like Sophie and i would LOVE it if she won, but that... i highly doubt.
Will vote for her though, watch her, get the number, phone up when lines open, will i watch it all? No, BGT for me!

I don't mind rather than don't care. While one of them really stands out for me as an overall performer and could persuade me against better judgement to go and see WoOz (), I like the four who are left in (Jess as well) and would feel happy about any of them winning. All are good to watch and I think that the long run-in to the opening would be enough for either of the younger two to develop their stage presence a little more.
