Yes they were excellent, but the most memorable so far was last weeks silhouette dance troupe, with a work of absolute genius that brought a tear to many an eye. I hope there is more where that came from.

just catching up with Saturday's programme. I am in the minority by thinking the 11 year old diva couldn't sing and might end up being really annoying?

Agree Fiona kids should be kids the gyrating was sad to see don't know who were worse the parents, the panel or the audience :(

Well I disagree with both of you, I loved her act, she had stage presence but probably not enough talent to win.

Fiona and Nickmacuk, I couldn't agree more. Seeing young kids that are too young to understand the meaning of the lyrics they are singing (or at least should be!) is one of the things that really grates with me. The previous week's one where a young girl was singing 'One Night Only' in a real torch song style was awful. I sat there thinking 'How long before this gets loaded up onto a website aimed at paedophiles?' That sort of thing just feeds certain warped fantasies and I really don't know what is going through the minds of parents who put their kids up on prime time TV doing such things. It's one thing it happening in the privacy of your own home, and after all what pre- or early teen hasn't been desperate to grow up quickly, but it's quite another to agree to them doing this in front of millions of strangers.

Personally, I think that the time has come to consider putting a lower age limit of 16 on shows like this. If they are really talented, they'll still be talented when they grow up a bit more. The young comedian from the other week will be even better once he's old enough to actually go into comedy clubs!

I agree with the lower age of 16.
Also the title is Britains got Talent- so why are we seeing people who are neither British nor residing in Britain?

My friend really liked them, the judges and audience loved them, I, however wasn't keen. The were too unbalanced in height for my liking. They reminded me of an ice skating pair of dancers years ago, the male was way taller than his partner and he looked like he was dancing with a doll.

I did like the Dutch dancers but wondered where they could go with the act in further rounds. Once you've seen it, you've seen it.

Tonight's one was good. The impressionist was funny before he even started his act. The 71 year old had a great voice- just not sure of the song. Can't imagine her singing it to the Queen! Rosie at the end had a beautiful voice and I have a feeling she can only improve as she was so nervous.

Enjoyed the show but I do feel I could do without Ant and Dec being idiots and the cameras showing them while the contestants are on, its there few minutes on the stage and good or bad it is them I have put it on to see
Reply
Aww I love Ant & Dec they make me chuckle at their antics.
Reply
The auditions are edited anyway, so if they were not showing Ant & Dec they would be showing the judges reactions or the back story of a contestant.

I still think this years talent has got a lot worse than previous years..
good job its now Europe's got talent otherwise it would be terrible this year.

I am obviously missing something about the 11 year old. I thought she was dreadful unless she was belting out the chorus. If they vote any more kids into the final I think their plan may well backfire. I have a feeling the final will have the lowest viewing figures they have had.
