I thought they were fantastic last night and was gutted they didn't make the top 3, put a vote in for them.

Thought they really stepped it up and when you're talking about actual talent and sheer hard work and dedication needed to do what they do - I thought they were number 1 last night.

If you try and do what they do, like karate kicking on one leg or even balancing on one leg with the other pointing to the sky, you'll most likely fall over or pull a muscle! You really can't underestimate how hard it is and how hard they must train to get to the level they are, maybe that wasn't appreciated as much as Ronan's singing.

I thought the 1st semi was overloaded with too many potential finalists, imo based on talent and not the chosen act going last etc I wanted it to be:

1st Bruce Sistaz
2nd Joe Oakley OR Paul Gbegbaje

4th (even though there isn't a 4th) Ronan Parke

So yeh, think they and what they do is brilliant and sorry for them that they didn't even make top 3, what do others think?

I'd have had no complaints if they'd gone through, amazing act.

imo they were much more talented than the little brat singer (but then he is only 12 so the entire nation must vote for him even though he really was nothing special), but this show aint about talent, just who cowell can make the most brass out of. Unfortunately thats the singing turd. Other than a couple of adverts, a few church fates and the opening of some supermarkets, there's no real money to be made out of a martial arts act for Mr Moneybags.

I'm glad that others saw it similar to what I did

As for Simon's comment about them being in a film - I really hope that's the way they go! They would be awesome.

As for BGT, we all know how it works so sadly even though I do actually like Ronan a bit, the actual talent that's hardest to achieve isn't appreciated as much as what's the most marketable.

Even though they were affected by this and I really honestly think they should be in the final - good luck to them in the future!

I liked them. I thought they were brilliant, and I was hoping they'd go through. Never mind though, I really liked Paul and Ronan as well last night.

I just Youtubed it and they were very good Quite easy on the eyes too
Why red instead of yellow outfits
Think they should have made Top 3. It must be so hard to do a routine lasting about 1m like that.

I sort of agree, I think they were a bit unfortunate too that there were potentially 4 acts good enough to make it to the final.

It is quite funny actually but a bit spooky as well that I said in another thread about who you wanted to win that my top 3 were between Bruce Sistaz, Paul Gbegbaje and Ronan Parke - and look what happened.

Last year before then semi-finals started I was talking to someone IRL and i said that my favourite 3 acts all together were Spellbound, Tobias Mead and Olivia Archibald - what happened?

Spooky and typical of my luck lol - my favourites being in the same same and also on the Monday to rub it in.

I agree with you i wanted Joe to win the public vote(but it was so obvious who the producers wanted) and the girls to go through both acts ENTERTAINED me isnt that what the show is about variety??? we have Xfactor UK, US, American idol the voice to name a few to listen to singers"!!! also i think they should have a childs seperate show as obviously the awww, cute pulls in votes so leaving genuine talented adults with no chance like bruce sistaz and Joe phew!!

Imagine Bruce Sistaz in a martial arts film or part of a show like Shaolin Warriors (I've seen them - Shaolin Warriors that is - at my local theatre and they were brilliant)
I think they should have been allowed longer to do something - say 3-5 minutes.

I was really hoping they'd get through; knew them from Diversity's tour (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXpZp7ra-J8 if anyone's interested in their bit - not my video).
As others have said, if it was an easier night they could've got through. Not that there was much amazing talent last night or anything, but the public were always going to vote Ronan & Paul, despite them being nothing special. Think they would've made the top 3 in tonight's line-up.

It takes true talent and hard work to do what they did - an act like them would be perfect for RVP or the Olympics ceremony as thats what it should be about - VARIETY.
Anyone remember Iona the contortionist from S1 (I think?) - talented, beautiful, her audition was amazing and her semi final was only less so because she was injured. She could have got into Cirque de Soleil or something easy

I was so surprised by them, thought they were really very good. I felt quite sorry for them.

I thought they were the best last night, certainly my favourite - and if they'd have been in the last spot I reckon they would've gone through...very carefully chosen that spot (there'll be one night where some no-hoper is on last)

I don't think the sistazs were robbed. You can only say that if they'd come second in the public vote and the judges put the third placed act through. The act wasn't meaty enough.

I thought they were amazing. Really flawless and exciting. It's a pity they didn't get through, instead a singer and a pianist get through as if that's never been seen on TV before

These girls and Michael Moral stood out for me, and both acts are out
