I totally agree with you but I also wonder how much of it was manipulated for Sat's show. It was almost like a scripted piece with ALW's response. I know I am biased but we are talking about an 18yr old lad here who probably does not have the common sense that the older guys like Seamus had.

I also wonder if the fact he was called first was a ploy to get less votes in next week as some fans will think he is safe. I notice that the week someone is in the bottom they don't get called back into the sing off the next week as their fans vote like mad to keep them in. Ben's shocked face to be safe first wasn't the face of someone who is arrogant and thinks he knows he is the best!

My least favourite is Lewis. I have tried to give him a chance but he just reminds me of a mannequin I'm afraid.

I think Ben's criticism was part naivety, part answering a question and part feeling hard done by.

I don't consider him to be particularly arrogant. I think he could go far in this competition and like the spark has but don't consider him that talented.

Don't get me started on Lewis.

I'm not really a fan of Ben's

Now I had heard that merry -but can't remember where from

just came to mind this minute, honest

Up until this week I would probably have said Craig but his performance on Saturday really won me over. I'm actually starting to think that he might be a contender now if he can build on that....

So my least favourite has to be Ben, whose ego is clearly totally misplaced, followed by 'Let's hear some snores for Daniel Bores' :yawn:

Oi! That's totally uncalled for!!

Daniel is adorable; Craig only appears to have improved because he was given the easiest song of the lot last Saturday.....I am absolutely certain that if they were all given the same song Daniel would wipe the floor with him.

ooh you are awful but i like you

That's a very good point - we need to see them all sing the same song, on the same night. There will be different interpretations and they'll sing in different keys/registers, but it'll give us an idea of who can and who can't!

The acting, stage presence, experience, physicality - as well as the voice - have to be the final deciding elements. I'm still convinced that ALW has that sussed already however, and will engineer a situation where only those he'd be happy with every reach that point in the process

With Rob gone, I'd thought to want Craig to leave next. However, he improved by leaps and bounds this Saturday. Definitely worth another look.

My new bottom-place finisher is Ben. He's way too immature to handle West End fame if he doesn't even have enough sense to stop biting the hand that feeds him. ALW handled it with a laugh, but I think Ben has shot himself in the foot for the last time.

yes - I know he is young - and he did apologise - but I don't think that did him any favours. I agree about Craig too - he has grown on me over the last two weeks and he has improved - I don't think he is Joseph - but he certainly is more in the competition now than he was.

Next out for me would be Lewis.

What a lovely guy - but I can't get the 'comical' thoughts out of my head when he performs ! It's the knees. I go with Denises 'tarantula' comment. Like Chris B's teeth, Johndeeps hair and Rob's chilling looks - the way Lewis dances is putting me off. Plus his voice hasn't captured me. He really needs a song he can sit down to and sing. Then I could listen to the voice properly without giggling. I do hope he ends up in TV somewhere though

Yes so do I. Preferably installing sky systems.

(Not a Lewis fan)

Daniel is my least favourite.

naughty - but oh so funny

Still don't think Lee is Joseph. Maybe when he was a bit younger without the perm.

Doesn't Joseph have to age from 17 to 34?

You see, Lee sits very nicely in the middle here to play both ages. Some of the boys, Ben, Keith and Lewis look too young to play the mature Joseph and Daniel looks a bit too old to play teenager Joseph.

Lewis for me - for me he just doesn't have enough charisma. Then Ben and Craig - Ben is a good performer but vocally not good and Craig is vocally good but most of his performances have been a bit wooden.

I agree to a point, but after seeing Daniel doing 'It's all about you' (horrid song choice but there you go) I though he was really sweet and endearing - could easily pull off the young Joseph.

Lee and Daniel are the 'optimum' age I feel!!

Don't think Keith will carry off the older Joseph at all, nor Ben or Lewis.

Craig might surprise some ... I think he could do it.

BEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just don't get me started
He is the most cocky and arrogant person that I have ever come across.
He kills every song he ATTEMPTS to sing and his facial expressions make me want to punch the TV screen.

How he is still here over Seamus I don't know.

Well we will agree to disagree over Ben - and Seamus he looks old enough to play a grandfather! never Jospeh!

Fully agree, would love to know why the Perm?

Keith is my least favourite.

Yes he has a good voice, but thats it, he doesnt have the look, personality or stamina for Joseph...in my opinion.

Well I must say that Lee IS Joseph and regarding his 'perm' it makes him look very charismatic
He has great stage presence and to me is the only one who can truly act the part.

Lee to win
