Another set of mixed comments, but it's your votes that decide if James is here next week.

Let's head over to the boys and their mentor Danyal now. This act received good feedback last week and is looking for the same again this week; it's Niall Sexton!

5 After Midnight
Boys, I liked this - one of your best performances, however it didn't seem to go anywhere and I feel you didn't really connect with the song. Sorry, I know you've had a hard time this week, but I really didn't like it.

James Craise
Wow James! This song shows that your vocals can do anything! It is a more up-tempo song that what you have previously sung, but it worked well - amazing!

Out of your 3 performances, this one is the worst. I didn't connect with the song and I feel it didn't suit you. It could be down to high expectations, after you've impressed so much before. I'm sorry Niall but I didn't like it.

P.S: Sorry I'm late

Niall Sexton

Niall, when I first heard the song choice I was thinking "uh oh, not great", but then I listened to the cover and it was beautiful, stripped back it really makes your unique, soft vocal shine. It was still a bit predictable, but a pretty great job nontheless

Mixed feedback for Niall (a running theme tonight), but it's your votes that decide if he'll be in the bottom two or not.

Now it's back with Maris and the groups. This act didn't get the feedback they hoped for last week so they're hoping for a better week this week. Not interested in a love song, it's Four of Diamonds!

Girls, I'm sorry, but I really didn't like this. I found it so dull and boring, it didn't go anywhere, and another thing that seems to be a running theme for you, generic. I want you to do something different, maybe some 90s stuff, but as of now you're fadng into the background I'm sorry

Not so sure about this but you sounded the best you have this season and your voices blended together as well

Mixed feedback for Four of Diamonds again, but it's down to the public if they're safe or not.

Now it's over to Riley and the Over 25s for the second time tonight. This act didn't get great comments last week, so hoping to improve it's Janet Grogan!

Janet Grogan

Janet, unfortunately I was bored by the end of it. It didn't go anywhere, it stayed at the same place throughout, and I don't think it ws the best song for our voice either. Sorry

Our judges disagree again, but it's your votes that will decide Janet's fate tonight!

Now it's back with Danyal and the boys for the second time tonight. Hoping to impress with his black car, it's James Hughes!

Great feedback for James (the first of the night! ), but he needs your votes if he's to stay in the competition.

Now it's over to Nic and the first of the girls tonight. This act got excellent feedback last week and is dreaming of another good week, it's Sam Lavery!

Excellent comments for Sam tonight, will she be safely through? Your votes decide.

Now it's back with the boys and Danyal for the last time tonight. This act is hoping to keep up the momentum and continue avoiding the bottom two. Telling you that you should've went home, it's Christian Burrows!

Christian Burrows

Sorry, Christian, I'm not sure if this was the right song for you. It didn't allow you to showcase your vocals, it was pretty dull and generic if I'm honest. I do like this song, but I just don't think it was for you, I want you to take a different route, I preferred your earlier stuffs.

Not good comments for Christian, but your votes decide whether he'll be bottom two or not.

Back with Nic and the last of the girls now. This act is another randomly selected act and is hoping to impress the judges tonight. It's Faye Horne!

I don't think Emeli Sande suits you and there were much better songs you could have chosen

Faye Horne

Faye, I have to admit, similarly to last week, I really struggled to find a song that suits you, that also fits the theme, this was the best I could do. I think you're brilliant at the slower stuff, and this cover was perfect for you. I hope everyone else liked it, because I sure did!

Not great comments for Faye, but it's your votes that decide if she makes it to next week.

Now it's time to go to the last act of the night, over to Riley and the Over 25s. Closing the show tonight despite leaving her heart in Tokyo, it's Relley C!
