Who do you think will open the show?
So the point is in the question..The first act on usually does badly (Addictive ladies, Kimberly)
So who do you think will get the dreaded first on stage spot? I think by the song choice Danni could be putting Rachel up first..As she knows Rachel will be safe and has to concentrate on Daniel + Ruth getting through. Also apparently 'Girl Band' have a complex dance routine maybe its them. I predict the order will be. 1- Girl Band 2- Rachel 3- Scott 4- Alex 5- JLS 6- Daniel 7- Eoghan 8- Diana 9- Bad Lashes 10- Ruth 11- Austin 12- Laura. |

If Girlband go first, they're gone. They're the bookies favourites to go and at the beginning there will be less viewers.

Whoever sings first will be doing something uptempo and whoever sings last will have been the really good in rehearsals and can bring the house down but also someone that the public will wait until the end to see. In future weeks, the best acts will be split across 2 slots, the other being the 5 minutes after SCD finishes (Rhydian and Same Difference were regulars in those slots last year). Without knowing song choices, it is hard to judge (and I have included some of my own suggestions). But I would go with: Girlband (singing something uptempo) AD BREAK Scott (inevitably singing something cabaret) Rachel (a good act to keep viewers around) AD BREAK Diana (probably doing something slower) JLS (ideally doing "Ghetto Gospel" by Elton John/Tupac) AD BREAK Eoghan (something a bit more uptempo) Danny (a sad ballad, "The Rose" by Westlife/Bette Middler?) AD BREAK Alexandra ("Fallin" by Alicia Keys?) BadLashes (something uptempo) AD BREAK Austin ("Leave Right Now" by Will Young?) Ruth (???) AD BREAK Laura ("Black Velvet" by Alannah Miles?) |

I have a really bad feeling Diana will be up first... and based on the track record of the show openers, I'm worried.
Or maybe just paranoid.

Or maybe just paranoid. ![]() Addictiv Ladies went in S2 because they were terrible. Shayne was on after them and it never did him any harm. And on BGT, typically the second best acts of the night were given the second or third slots. Last year Kimberley was at a disadvantage because of other events outwith the control of ITV/producers. Although she was dreadful as well, of course. If you go first and are any good, you'll make it through. |

Whoever is on first in the first live show tends to be in the bottom 2 at least... except possibly in Series 3 when it was Dionne vs Unconventionals - neither went first

It won't be Diana. They tend to have a judges order, and I think Cheryl will be last tomorrow night. Although I do expect that Diana will be the first on out of Cheryl's 3 (which makes her 4th).

Although she was dreadful as well, of course. If you go first and are any good, you'll make it through. Also, if you take a look at who has stayed and who has gone based on performance order, 3 out of the 4 opening acts have been sent packing - and only Addictiv Ladies deserved to IMO. Anyway, here's hoping Diana isn't first on tomorrow, eh?

The first on first out thing was just a load of crap span by Kimberley to justify her being kicked out. Robert was first during series 3 and that never did him any harm for the first week.
Addictiv Ladies were first on, in the bottom 2 and out in Series 2 Plus I think on series 1 and 2 that the bottom 2 ALWAYS consisted of two of the first 4 acts that performed |

Being last is a clear advantage and imo should not be reserved for "showstoppers". This is a production bias. There's no need to stop the show, it will end automatically. |

The show has a later start this year and no clash with SCD however with twelve acts set to sing some will get lost in the shuffle which could be bad news to whoever performs early and if they dont give a fantastic performance.
