Yes she's got a an ok voice, but I find her rather dull and bland and I think she takes the contest to seriousley.

Edith is miles better.

I think they've both been ridiculously overrated. You'd think they were Roberta Flack or Janis Joplin the way the judges have gone on.

I think they are both good in a celeb way - it's not their day job.

But I think Kim is too bland, and Edith isn't as good as everyone is making out.

It's just the East Enders viewers voting for her - the rest of us are more objective but ignored.

Saying that, I do think it's preferable to the female styles of the 80s... Whitney etc.

The singing style of the 90s for women seemed to be miming

I'm an Eastenders fan but I think Edith is better because although less accomplished, she gives more of herself to the performance. Kim sings like a china doll - perfect but lifeless. She'll win though

Edith is overrated. Very. She's always been dull as a presenter, she gave us the worst version of RI:SE, fatally wounding the show, and she would put everyone to sleep on Radio 1 if Colin didn't liven her up.

See - two can play that game.

Here we have a chance to enjoy a great final, and all some people have on their mind is bitterness and resentment.

Let it go. Enjoy them both.

I agree with that

I dont think Kim is overrated, she has been very good, except tonight, I didnt think much of her tonight, especially the duet

Do you have butterness on some other part of your body?

Now the non singing non comedian is out, I'm not really bothered who wins.. They all win

Edith will advance in her career by having a better understanding of the bands she meets and interviews, and they will respect her more too

Kim can comfortably expect to be appearing in the West End for years to come, having displayed her talent, diligence and dependability

Ade has reached another generation with his comedy and raised a lot of money

Fair play to all..

I also think Reggie will be a more confident and professional presenter after this too

Well said!

It was the right result tonight. Even Reggie's fans can be happy he made it so far; and we get Ade who embodies Comic Refief, and Kim and Edith, popular and constrating singers who have generated the most passion in the forum.

We've all won, and it's a good time to stop spinning and dissing and to get ready to enjoy a great show.

Edith and Kim haven't generated passion. Richard Parks trying to make out they're something special has generated passion.

They both would be interesting in the real FA. Edith with more confidence and Carrie teaching her how not to lose some of her key notes would do fine. She understands music and knows what she is doing and what it means. she's doing a wider range of songs too than many in FA.

Kim was at her weakest tonight on a day she had 4 songs to rehearse which must be tough for someone who learns songs. Not sure how she didn't realise she was off in the duet either when the other 3 made it against the backing track either.

Carrie was interesting on BBC 3 - Kim was "musical theatre" (which she could learn and then perform brilliantl) and Edith was someone who could record albums (where you could cut out the odd wrong note or cough) but didn't want to..

That's far too sane and rational surely?

I agree with every word of it too.

I think Kim is getting all the credit she deserves, she has a great voice and the judges and everyone else can see that. to me they are all winners, they sre a good, friendly bunch of people who have bonded so well. I think its great, and they are so proud of the amount of money they have raised for charity and its brilliant.

Ive been voting for Kim all the way through but now at this stange, seeing them on the live streaming and seeing how well they are all getting on is great and don't mind who wins now. well done to all of them xx

Personally I think Ade is overrated. Sure, it was funny the first time, maybe even the second time, but now it's predictable. You know what he's going to do. He can't sing, so fair enough he tries to pull a trick out of the bag to compensate for that. Unfortunately it's the same trick each time.

Edith is overrated as well. Her voice is quite flat and lifeless and, while I'm sure she's probably a great Dj, she isn't a singer. Richard seems to dote on her, matbe because she's a fellow Scot (I can say that being Scottish myself), but then he wasn't the same with Dawn, so maybe that's not it at all. Anyway, not my cup of tea.

Kim has proved herself time and time again. Tonight's song wasn't great - bad choice, but she did her best. The duet was crap, but she knew it as she was singing it! In my opinion the last few night's songs have proved her ability. Born to Try was amazing, and I Don't Know Why was sublime.

In my opinion there is really only one contestant who is likely to win, but that might be offset by all the ex-Bottom fans who think that Ade's humour is still cutting edge!? Unfortunately for Edith, I don't think she'll get a look in. The votes will either go for Kim's voice, or Ade's lunacy.
