Who do I want to win? Depends on their performance tomorrow night. They all have to step it up a gear. I think Signature, Strike, Nemesis and George Scala and Escala managed to do that from audition to semi, whereas I feel the others did "more of the same but maybe a little better".

I've got a soft spot for George and I'd like to see all the above get some sort of opportunities from this show in the future, along with Andrew Muir.

Kate & Gin will have their 15 minutes of fame but it's not a career opportunity for them, is it?

Andrew Johnson may have time to grab a few more headlines before people get sick of him or his voice breaks.

The Cheeky Monkeys make me cringe.


Faryl Smith will win, mark my words. Oh, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if she's last on the lineup.

I like Signature, Kate and Gin, Andrew, Faryl, Nemesis, George, Strike and Scala. I think it's a really good line up for the final. I don't know which particular act I want to win the most, so I guess it depends on who does best tomorrow night. If it weren't for the fact that the last act to perform gets a huge advantage, then this would be a brilliant competition and a tough one to call. For the final they should at least make more time for voting than the usual 5 minutes or so.

I think its a foregone conclusion that Escala are going to win. The praise seemed totally OTT tonight. I couldn't tell what was them and what was a backing tape/orchestra backstage.

I can just imagine Simon rubbing his hands in glee. Hed be able to silence the critics by saying its about variety not singers - and still be able to sell millions of albums off the back of it

I'd like to see George win if he can pull it out of the bag again tomorrow night - if not him then Nemisis, Signature or Strike.

I want to the see how the judges react to a winning act that won't be able to release a CD.

Yes by an act he asked to enter, so yes you could be right a foregone conclusion, so lets hope the GBP prove him wrong, would love to see George win as well

No singer, it should be something different and something that cannot be turned into a CD! SO I agree with you

William hill:

Bookies William Hill are torn between Faryl Smith and Escala for who will win Britain's Got Talent but at present Hills make Faryl their slight favourite at 11/10 with Escala offered at 5/4.

"We are in for what could be the biggest day in reality TV betting history and if Faryl wins possibly the worst day for the bookies in reality TV betting history," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.

William Hill Britain's Got Talent Grand Final: 11/10 Faryl Smith, 5/4 Escala, 7/1 George Sampson, 12/1 Andrew Johnston, 16/1 Andrew Muir, 25/1 Signature, 40/1 Kate & Gin, 50/1 Nemisis, 66/1 Cheeky Monkeys, 100/1 Strike.

That assumes ITV and Cowell (who is executive producer of the show) don't fiddle/lie about the results so that a particular artist (beginning with E and ending Scala) win.

Remember this has happened before!

Oooh sorry I gave my opinion!
He doesn't deserve to win because their are much I repeat...much better acts than him who don't have a sob story. Farly, Scala and Signature to name a few
Don't be sorry for having an opinion. It's a forum.

There might be acts who are better than him, but does that make him not deserving of a win?

One person's voted for Strike. Is Amanda amongst us?

I'm not, not at all, but each to their own indeed as Signature are totally lost on me.

That's Kate & Gin BTW.

I've actually heard that the voting in the first semi was a very close run thing. It says something when the last act on can only narrowly beat the second act on.

BTW, neither of the later two semis beat the semi George as on for total number of votes received.

Want to win - Kate & Gin closely followed by George.

Think will win - Escala or Faryl.

Don't want to win - Escala, Andrew J or Cheeky Monkeys.

Very little of it was them in the audition and I can't say a lot of it sounded or looked like them last night. At least not live. They could have recorded their segments beforehand.
