I think some posters on here want to get their facts correct Jenny if I am not wrong won the dog competition on Sunday the fact they did not show it on Saturday says it all. It is all in the edit.
Mind you I don't know why I'm surprised - ALW still expects me to believe that two separate shows are filmed each weekend

I could see her leaving too.
I think she was her own downfall actually. She was a truly lovely and talented girl but she oepnly admitted that she could not dance and that she was not that good with dogs. If you going for a job interview, you kind of need to really self yourself and definitely not advertise your weaknesses. It was sweet that she was able to admit things she is not so good at, but I think that might have put voters and the panel off her. Lauren is the other extreme of total self-belief, but with good reason I suppose. I think the best is a more mid-way position like Steph and Danielle. I wish Jenny all the best, loved songbird one of the best performances of the series. She will no doubt do very well. But girls who leave in an ungracious way will only do harm to their futures. |

I don't understand why ALW couldn't have just said something like I think Lauren has the edge vocally, or I think Lauren is a slightly stronger performer and that's why I'm not saving you rather than giving the daft reason he did.

I'm sure she also realised that Lauren wipes the floor with her and the 'dog issue' was ALW being nice about it.

Of course it's all in the edit but if her "fans" cannot be bothered to vote because of a teeny bit of VT then she was hung anyway.

It's the fact that Jenny was being portrayed as someone who couldn't work with dogs during the voting. |

There were two dog competitions. Jenny messed up in the 'acting with the trained dog' challenge (shown on Saturday). She and her dog won the Sunday challenge, but it was the dogs being voted on (by the children in the theatre and the judges), not the Dorothys. ALW's comments referred to the first competition. So he was correct in what he said, but it clearly wasn't the genuine reason for saving Lauren over her (it was actually that Lauren was the better performer in the sing-off and in that evening's solos).

I got nervous when I saw the title of this thread.... phew!
Jenny has said enough, but not too much that she looks bitter. Good! She doesn't want to rule out future work with ALW... |

Her fans aren't the issue; all the girls will have their fans who vote for them regardless, but this series from the bottom two's we've been seeing this series would seem to have an unusually high number of "floating voters" and they're the ones who might have decided not to vote for Jenny because of the rubbish about the dog.

I don't think this clip would have affected her votes at all. Most people would know it takes more than one try to bond with a dog and wouldn't judge her on that. She would have had plenty of time to bond if she had the part. No, I think people had other reasons for not voting.
In my opinion, it was basically "You have 15 minutes to vote... DON'T VOTE FOR JENNY SHE'S TERRIBLE" |

It does seem quite... interesting... that they chose to show this one clip, clearly highlighting Jenny as the weak link during the voting time, that's all. Do you really disagree with that?

I completely disagree. Every time a girl left Jenny always looked genuinely upset about it and she's one of the ones they always cut to when the girl was flying on the moon and emotion was written all over her face.
I got the feeling that Jenny is a very caring and a genuinely warm hearted girl... Perhaps the Daily Star article, placing Jenny in the lead, led people to think she was safe, so many didn't vote to save her! |

I misunderstood if it was Jenny as person that was meant. |

I'm talking about acting not being. I don't see that Lauren is emotionless at all when performing. I like Jenny enormously and loved her performances but she was no more emotional (probably less better at conveying it IMO) than Lauren.

Again, I disagree with this. In my opinion Jenny's performance of Send In The Clowns was fantastic, similar to Ruthie Henshall's (in terms of emotion):
