To be fair, I'm not surprised that we've seen him crying on the VT during the week - they have a really hard schedule, plus they're being required to take on board so much information every single day. They have people commenting on their singing, their movement, they have lyrics and arrangements to learn, wardrobe fitting and much more. When you're an established name, all these things still have to be done, but not while you're carrying the stress of competition and your career expectations.

They've almost had too much advice from too many different quarters, and they never seem to have a moment to assimilate everything and then put it into operation. It's a very big ask for young men, IMVHO

I agree actually, maybe my comment about Lewis was unfair. It IS a stressful thing for them to be going through.

But Daniel & Lee coped admirably, which shows maybe that age does play a role in something like this. I do think lewis is justa bit too young.

Ben I would imagine.

Personally, I feel that ALW has least confidence in Lewis at this stage.

Uhmmmm I don't think I agree. Visually ALW probably sees Lewis as "Joseph" - he's very pretty, deep and easy to mold. We all know that Daniel was the most talented and wonderful singer in the show so why save Lewis over Daniel? I believe that ALW has Lewis earmarked for the part of Joseph. Very clever game on behalf of Andrew! It could even be a Lewis vis Lee final!! That would keep the GBP watching.

I don't agree - i think daniel was ONE of the most talented, but not the most by a long shot. I think ALW is favouring Ben - only reason why he saved him after such a painfully bad performance - AGAIN!

For some reason I got the feeling it was Keith. He seemed very unenthusiastic about him on saturday (no negative comments but just distinctly unimpresed). Keith hasn't been in the bottom two yet so we don't know whether ALW would save him.

Bens performance wasnt great lastnight, but i can totally see why ALW saved him over Craig. Craig IS too smiley, hes too cabaret and in my opinion just isnt a West End star

Time will tell!

You may be correct.

The only thing I would say is that whilst his performance on Saturday might not have exactly met ALW's requirements, he still said that he thought that Keith potentially could be Joseph.....ableit I believe he was meaning in a few years' time. From that point of view I think he would still feel him worthy of making the Final to take second place and not actually win.

ALW could be favouring any of those that are left, if he keeps to his word what he is looking for, otherwise he only has one safety first route, but remember Andrew does not have the Final Decision if everything is done above board!

Here we only express our opinions, I often disagree with theatre critics, but you just have to pick yourself up, brush off and forget about them! and put in even more effort.

With movie critics, I never read them! as I find I enjoy those sometimes they knock and only give 1 or 2 stars.

I agree - a critic is giving their opinion, and i have watched some great films that haven't been rated overly high, and others that have been rated highly have been pretty poor. its all down to opinioni guess.
