1. Cassie (Just love her voice: it sounds so effortless and she has a gorgeous tone. Great first performance on live tv - thought she really came up with the goods. Pity they put her in fancy dress though.)
2. Rowetta (Very impressive. Big, distinctive voice, though I'm not sure how much of it I could take at any one time - I might struggle after a couple of songs.)
3. Steve (Difficult to tell with the throat problem but he was high on my list before so I'll leave him there for the moment.)
4. Tabby (Liked him more than I thought I would.)
5. Voices With Soul (Liked them more than I thought I would too. Would be nice to hear them do something other than belt.)
6. 2 to Go (Not unpleasant but no X-factor for me.)
7. G4 (I'll thank them for introducing me to a novel experience - laughing my head off during "Everybody Hurts" - but I'll pass all the same.)
8. Verity (Easily the weakest - no charisma and she seemed terribly nervous. I'll be worried for her the longer she stays in.)
So it's Cassie all the way for me - though that's rather bad news for her I'm afraid as my favourites never win these things. (Sorry, Cassie

)
