And we get off to a positive start with Gidget, setting the benchmark for others to follow.

Next up is the first of Riley's boys, hoping to save his life in the competition and be able to stay longer, it's Freddy Parker

Freddy, I loved that. It was you, amazing vocals and don't even get me started on the piano! I loved it!

Freddy: 8

Freddy, to be totally honest with you, in my head at the moment I'm quite split. It was a great performance and I could see elements of your uniqueness hidden in there however I'm not sure if that was the right song for you. I'm giving you 8.25

If i'm being honest I think you have a lot more potential and i haven't really seen that tonight. I wasn't really able to hear your vocal range as well
Score:5

Right, I'm gonna be honest here...I have been avoiding this year's X Factor a lot this year due to how far the standard has fallen, so I've had to look into what your voice is like, Freddy. Now to focus on your performance and this was very impressive. An interesting cover of a very good song that suited you well. I think you could be a darkhorse act if you keep this up.

Score: 8/10

Gidget Dela Llana
I mentored you before in International Factor that why I know what really suits you... this is a really good picks. Demi is a good artist for you, saw your Stone Cold cover and it was sensational. So I already expected it, but the song is out of the box. Which is great, picking a not so popular Demi song. I'm excited to see what's next for you.

Score: 9/10

Freddy Parker
Something missing, I admit. I felt like your uniqueness was lost here, I couldn't feel that thing on your first audition that made me like you but nevertheless, it was still a decent first performance and I am looking forward for your next one.

Score: 6.8/10

That didn't go to well with Riley's first act, Freddy as he failed to get the approval of our panel.

Scoreboard
1.) Gidget Dela Llana - 38.00
2.) Freddy Parker - 36.05

Now, we're on the groups and their mentor Steve, hoping to earn the judges' approval with their launching performance, here is Brooks Way:

Posted already, just re-checking the scores as it doesn't match the tabulated one a while ago. Either the excel sheet made a mistake or someone's changing scores?

*standing ovation*
THAT IS HOW YOU DO IT! You nailed that guys, it was current and it was well sung. I think sometimes you boys can get very stale in not mentored properly but I don't think we should worry about that! Your mentor knows exactly what they're doing. 9.75 for you boys

Alright, the show just begun with my twin act! When I think of you boys, I think of Indie music, that was when I came across this very catchy song and I just had to give this to you as that's the direction I wanna take you in. That was such a terrific performance and I believe were on the right track to go very far, but this is only the beginning, so let's get on that journey and start performing in the shows to come.

Score 9/10

Yeah, I had a score error on my part due to the keyboard playing up, my fault.

It seemed like Brooks Way is one of the favourites to win now... especially with the change in the leaderboard.

Scoreboard
1.) Brooks Way - 40.65
2.) Gidget Dela Llana - 38.00
3.) Freddy Parker - 36.05

Up next, it's the first of the Over 25s, will her uniqueness bring her to the top of the board? That what's she hoping, it's the living doll Sada Vidoo

okay Sada I'm going to be real here, I liked it but I don't want to see this again! As an over I want you to be really current, really edgy and just blow me away and while that was a good performance it wasn't edgy, it didn't blow me away and it didn't make you feel very current. Still, it's the first show and I feel it was a nice song, I just hope to see more from you in the future. 7.75 for you!

Sada, whilst I love you; I just can't help but think of how predictable your song was and there are so many different ones that would've suited you better.

Hmm, I'm not sure what to make of this song choice. On the one hand, I like my nostalgia music and Kate Bush is one of those mysterious yet unique singers. On the other hand, I don't think this worked out well and it had quite a moment of lacklustre throughout the performance. I wish you could've shown more tonight.

Score: 6/10

Off-topic: I've rechecked my scores and I have got them wrong, so I've corrected them now. (However if you could, Juan, forward me my scores just in case.)

9.9 for you, boys! I'm sorry I'm not giving you a perfect 10. But that was excellent. That was top notch and that was amazing! There isn't anything negative I can say as you are very talented good looking young boys! Continue what you're doing!

Sada Vidoo
I'm giving you a 7.5 this week, Sada. I felt like this wasn't what you can do, I feel like you're more capable of more and you're mentor limited you to this. I hope in the coming performances, you will grow more and be more interesting. But for now, that is all I can give.

We're back to the Girls... She missed a spot in tonight's finale but will she also miss a spot in next week's live show? Here is... Emily Middlemas

Remember, only eight acts will be safe from elimination totally. One more will be saved by the Judges' verdict and three will face the elimination vote.
