Tonight see the following acts take to the stage

Band Of Voices
Bosom Buddies
Youth Creation
Martin Healey.
Arisxanda Libantino
Richard and Adam
Philip Green
J-Unity
Aaron Crow

Tonight guest has not been confirmed but rumoured to be Ellie Goulding or Olly Murs

I think Richard and Adam should be favourites out of that line up. Though I have to admit to a guilty pleasure of finding Bosom Buddies quite entertaining

With the exception of Martin Healy (is he the mop dancer?), Aaron crow and (sadly) Philip Green I think any of them could go through.
Personally I have my fingers crossed for Richard and Adam though

That line-up actually surprised me, as I'd have thought Band Of Voices, Arisxanda,
and Richard and Adam were dead certs for the finals. Shows that they favour Francine over Phil judging by the line-up as he has a very poor chance of making the finals.

It is quite a tough line up. I suppose they have to strike a balance between not putting all the favourites together, while at the same time making sure the semi finals get off to a good start. That said I think Richard and Adam and Band of voices would be favourites to go through, but youth creation could pull in a few votes too.

Richard & Adam, then it's a toss up between Philip and Aaron.

No chance! The line up is strong and his impressions were awful that of a kids entertainer he's cannon fodder tonight.

But people really liked his personality to be honest. I think it'll be Band of Voices and Richard & Adam.....two singers - yay.

I am not sure Phillip Green will have enough material to wow they crowd tonight.

Band of Voices and Arixsanda for me.

Hoping Richard and Adam get through. Strong line-up for the first show.

It is going to be Bye bye Martin

I want at least a non-singing act to go through.

Going as thought it is the act with lowest votes that goes out but of cause it is not
Memory big sieve should of recalled that it is just the act with highest votes that goes on to final
That will be Richard and Adam
Not really fair in one sense as would like to see more of Philip and some of the other acts too
Wish we could have programmes like London Night at the Palladium back again

It's quite a strong line-up tonight - will be an interesting watch.

Mods should get this pinned.

I suspect Arisxandra will close the show and top the votes unless Richard & Adam play the Nan card a lot. Band of Voices and Phillip have an OK shot too. Aaron probably won't manage to make it unless he does something really, really good. Youth Creation will open the show, get nice comments but won't make it, and Martin and Bosom Buddies are there for Simon to use his buzzer. The only act I really can't pin down is J-Unity. Could go either way really.

You have summed it up pretty well.

I think Richard & Adam, Band of Voices and Ariksandra (sp?) would be favourites to go through, but how many go through each night - 2?

Yeah, the public votes one in, and then the judges 'choose' from the 2nd and 3rd place.

Arisxandra. I hope she is given a better song choice tonight.

Last year they had a wildcard where one act who failed to qualify for the final was picked by the judges after all the semi finals. Are they plannng to do the same this year?

Is this thread pinned yet

Me too...so I guess I might just have to pick up the phone!

Tonight's special guest is Ellie Goulding

I cant remember who they all are just by their names. Still, it will add to the excitement for me....
