As usual too many singers. I'm not surprised or even really disappointed now. The really nervous lady and the blonde should definitely not have been chosen imo though.

Of the 45 acts to go through 19 are singers and 14 dancers. It's just boring now. The same old dross. And the judges are to blame with their golden buzzer (singing and dancing) There's nothing original except the foreign acts. It's tired and predictable now and the semis will be rigged to have the best acts in the first semis and thus getting rid of some variety, leaving us with unmemorable acts getting through. They should have a live draw as to who appears when

I simply cannot comprehend how polar bear, dinosaur and davros got through....

That girl group are alarmingly thin they must be on the Cheryl Cole diet.

19 singers!!!

I think I'll just watch the final rather then having to endure the semi-finals. Why don't they just rename this show to "Find Simon Cowell Another Singer"

At most there should be 5-6 singers and 5-6 dancers. The rest of the acts should be variety acts. I know that I do not watch this show for singers or dancers as I've seen it all before with them

Well, it's up to the public not to put the singers and dancers through.

I have to say that once Oedipus boy found his voice in the song, the performance was spell bindingly beautiful, however seeing a young lad singing a love ballad to his mother all seemed a little bit "wrong" and was slightly uncomfortable to watch. Like many others all I could think about was how this lad is going to face a backlash of bullying when he returns to his everyday life, specially as he looks like he's quite a shy lad (though being in front of such a huge audience would be nerve wracking for anyone)!

They're through, so all I can hope is that they can find another (more "relationship appropriate" song) to show off their beautiful harmonies.

And you know they'll get buzzed or the judges will moan about their act..you know what it is you put them through!!

I think they're all gorgeous, especially Emily - developing a girl crush on her.

They put rubbish through so that they have acts on the semi finals that definitely won't get put through in order to make it more likely their favourites will make the final. If they had 8 brilliant acts, the outcome would be less predictable as any of the 8 could go through so the chance is 1/8. If they put 6 good acts and 2 rubbish acts, then the chance of a good act going through is more like 1/6 (not literally before some pedant states that it is still 1/8) as the 2 rubbish acts have no chance; only a handful of people will vote for them. They've been doing it every year.

4 singing acts per semi final....☑
3 dance acts per semi final.... ☑
1 joke act per semi final to buzz...☑
1 foreign variety act per semi final....☑

Is the whole thing contrived and tired.... ☑

is it just me or is the show not getting as many viewers as it used to anymore?

When she was asked "do you have a day job ? "
she said she sings in care homes
is that really a job ?

Do women in the audience really look shocked and amazed when a dance group are on stage, or is it manipulative editing?

Next year, I would like them to do a the reverse psych on them. "It's good news, you are through to ... Sorry I mean you're through, bye ...
