Hello and welcome to the sixth Live Show of Real Time! If you don't already know the format, this show will run parallel to the real show each week. Anything that happens on the real show will also happen on Real Time, only with a very different cast.

Last week, we had a double elimination shock as Kye Sones showed us all that one bad week can mean the end of your journey! Nathan followed him out the door after losing in the sing off to Carolynne.

Tonight the top 7 will be singing songs by British Icons!

Lets welcome back the contestants and their mentors...

SacredDiablo & The last of the Girls!
Lauren Smith

Dylan & The Boys!
Adam Burridge
Robbie Hance

Gav & The Overs!
Carolynne Poole
Melanie Masson

Jess & The Groups!
From Above
Mia & The Moon

Let us begin...

Hello, all!

Aw no, what a massive shame that Kye left.

Totally rooting for Melanie, From Above, Lauren and Adam.

She may have only just recovered from her b3 ordeal, but Carolynne Poole is ready to show why she was the right choice to survive. Brought to you by Gav!

Hello


Carolynne Poole

You know that ive been a huge fan of you but you were god damn awful last week but you were much better tonight. Not up to the standard of your other performances but i kinda liked it. That was a rather interesting choice of song and it definitely worked to a certain extent. I believe that the vocals at the higher parts were a little rough for you but you did a decent job so well done.

Ohh thought this was starting at half past, but got comments ready so doesnt matter

Carolynne
I love this song so much. One of my favourite songs of this year actually. But when I saw it on the list for you, I was very unsure. This isn't exactly what I am expecting from you. However I actually thought it was pretty brilliant. A very nice and welcome change from the kinda country route you usually are. It allowed you to just show your vocals, and them vocals are incredible. I dunno if I'd like to be away from your usually style for to long. But great choice and big improvement from last week.

Carolynne Poole
That was such a great way to bounce back from last weeks bottom two appearance. I loved how your mentor made the theme more contemporary by choosing an act that whilst she is not a megastar, she's the best in her field and she has many mannerisms similar to that of you, Carolynne. I liked it.

Now we have Lauren Smith, SD's last girl, singing a cover of the Arctic Monkeys!

Can't belive Nathan left, I missed voting last week

Lauren
The last few weeks, you have been one of my favourites. You have been consistantly high in my vote. Always top 3 at least. This week, it was another good performance. But it wasnt really as good as you have been the last three weeks. I think this probably will just be an off week, and you'll be back right on form next show. But yeah while still very good, not to your usual standards.

Lauren Smith

You have done many different types of songs that are within your niche. I thought it was appropriate to add a little fun and cuteness to your performance. The vocals were absolutely lovely and well executed. Apart from Kate Bush, you are the only act that is singing a real best of british song so great job on that. I was seriously considering sex bomb or dakota but i thought that it would be great to showcase another side and you surely delivered tonight.

Lauren Smith
This was a step down for you Lauren, and I hate to say it but it's really true. There wasn't anything that set you apart from the other competitors here. I didn't hate it, I absolutely didn't. just felt it lacked individuality.

It's been a few weeks since their b2 appearance, and for From Above and Jess the only way is up!

That Girl - The Noisettes

From Above
You are the act for me, that has constantly kinda middle to low in my rankings. All the other acts have had a stand out moment, but you havent. Until now, this was incredible girls. I really loved it. It reminded me kinda of like, some very old school Supreme's type of group performance, but really modernised. I loved it, if I said anything bad, maybe a bit more harmonising in the song choice, but yeah apart from that, everything was perfect.

From Above

You girls are definitely the underdog of the competition. I honestly never thought much about you until this performance. There is no doubt that you rose to the occasion and delivered hands down your best performance. I do see some potential that were absent from the get go. That was a rather impressive performance and i will looking forward to see more of you.

From Above

With the sad departure of Christopher Maloney from the group, you didn't have the easiest of times. BUT YOU SMASHED THIS. It really was just stunning, old school, retro- exciting. It was my personal favourite of yours so far and I hope you connect well with the voters this evening.

Apologies for my previous comment for From Above, i totally got the groups mixed up.

Up next it's Florence + the Machine! No wait, actually it's a cover performed by Dylan's act Robbie Hance!

Robbie
This week, was actually a bit tought for me at first tbh. Most of the folky acts, I was planning on using for you, are all American, or Irish, or like Swedish. And there is a series lack of famous folk British acts, I could've used this week. Anyways, I then found this amazing cover band, and they had this cover, which I think was the most perfect fit for you Robbie. Your vocals, are so incredible. I though this song fit you like a tee. Yeah I loved this alot.

Robbie Hance
I feel a little bit let down by this performance, I really do. Last week I practically wet myself with excitement- but that excitement has just gone and I am really anxious as to whether such a massive drop in quality will hinder you in the long run. Good luck though.

Robbie Hance

I definitely did not enjoy that performance at all. I believe that you bit off more than you could chew this week. You do not have that rasp in the top end of your register and those are the parts that makes the performance that special for me. I also disliked the arrangement as it isnt as dynamic as i wished but you sang the sang fairly well so good job on that performance.

OH DYLAN!

Time for the second Over now, Gav's Wildcard Melanie Masson!

Suzanne & I - Anna Calvi

Melanie Masson
Excellent as always Melanie! The choice was slightly predictable, but it was still a really unique and exciting performance. My only one thought for improvement is that perhaps you and your mentor could have you sing something which shows your versatility- because what you do, you do it well. It just becomes a little samey.

Melanie
Everythime I hear this time, it seriously gets better each time. Its incredible. Anyways back to you. I thought this was another incredible song choice, such a perfect fit for both your vocals, and the rocky style you have going. The song, had those crazy power house notes, that you excel at, aswell as the lower, smoother parts, which show the subtlies in your vocals. Yeah love it.

Melanie Massone

That was one of the stronger performances of the night. The song choice was amazing and the vocals were brilliant. I loved how you were consistently delivering without overpower throughout the entire song. I dont think your mentor could ask for anything more than that as you did a really great job. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was my favorite performance of yours.
