Damn! beat me to it.

Anyway, here's the full list and running order:

James Stone (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UfKNCdUX9ao)
Charlie Wernham(http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=fpBC0HJQtcI)
Harlequin Dance School (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=jsZU11z0lHA)
Andrew Muir (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=gK6jcqhny2Y)
Boogie Babes (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qm0RfowQo74)
Vizage (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=2me66xV9UhA)
Jeremey Lynch (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=DbH6Fgnp4QA)
Faryl Smith (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=0te6OEF9hJE)

Originally I couldn't find a video of the Boogie Babes but as always I came through. Anyway, there 2 minutes 10 seconds into the video and you only get to see them for exactly 10 seconds so enjoy.

My bet is for Faryl to win by a mile and Charlie or Jeremey to come second. If Jeremey can pull of what Strike did yesterday he may have a chance!

Vizage might be the laughing stock for tonight but I'm not sure. It will really depend if she sings or not.

I like the act. I just wish the woman wouldn't sing.

I agree, I think the act's great, just they're an act who need backing music.

Would like to see them and Charlie or Jeremy through. Faryl's great, but I like BGT to be about novelty and originality, and singers don't offer this.

For those fans of the Boogie Babes there's an interesting section from an article on them in The Westmorland Gazette


"The girls progress on the show was almost cut short last week when the dancers and their parents learned of an archaic law forbidding children under 13 years of age appearing in live televised broadcasts.
advertisement

However, the town rallied round the girls and last minute discussions between Cumbria County Council and programme makers Talkback Thames led to the dancers being granted permission to take part in the televised part of the show."



I just found it interesting because I had never heard of this before.

Really? So is this the same with everyone? The Cheeky Monkeys, Connie from last year, Andrew (is he under 13?)?

I'm like you, I've never heard of this before! Talkback Thames must have thought about this law before agreeing over child acts.

Good Point! Maybe it's just a local Bylaw only applicable to residents of Cumbria!

It doesn't sound right but that's all I could think of.

You're probably right, actually. I'd have thought if it was a national law, TT would have had to speak to the Government about it, not the Cumbrian County Council.

Though the show isn't broadcast from within the Council's jurisdiction so...I don't know lol.

My father, ever the optimist. "What'd happen if the chutes don't open?"

Thank goodness they weren't advertising McDonalds!

I'm looking forward for when this thread starts belting along, just like someone has just adjusted the speed on a production belt. Words go flying across the board! Such fun for those who lurk!

Though at least that'll prevent too many singers from reaching the final.

Faryl should make it through assuming there are no disasters.

But the second slot is wide open. Andrew Muir might make it, the Irish dancers will need to be good but I'd say they are a possibility. Jeremy Lynch also has a chance, I think. Vizage could go either way. If it's like the quick change people on AGT, then they might go through. If she sings terribly again then Simon will buzz within 10 seconds.

I can't see either Andrew or James getting through. They are both too much "X Factor" and if they are up against a variety act I think they will be put out, especially if Faryl is already through. Their only hope is that they both finish in the top 3.

EDIT: They seem to have attempted to spread out the singers as much as is possible. One at the start, one in the middle and one at the end. James must be singing something lively if he is opening the show.

Time to see if Cowell's faith in James Stone will be proven. I personally think he's a good club/bar singer but I wouldn't pay a lot of money to see him!
