As much as I love Bella, I have definitely seen better than that. A&A were actually quite good I thought but it's their time to go.

A&A should have doe something like that week 1 - but it was out of place in big band week (and they were not alone in that)
Tetley sang manically - not good.
Bella - I got bored (same as with Brendan)
They might as well give it to Dalton now - no-one else is coming close to his quality

I've seen Gio on stage several times and I've never thought he has had "anything done" See I've always thought he has, from the first moment I saw a picture of him. Not a critique, I fully support plastic surgery so it's no issue if he has, I was just curious. Looking forward to Cheryl's performance tonight, she always puts on a good show.

Blimey, Cheryl really can't sing!

Looks like the old ladies of Craggy Island were voting in their droves again!

If I was judging this I would save Shan. What she does is timeless. A&A’s grime style will hardly be relevant in 20/30 years time.

Shan over sings a lot of the time and loses both timing and pitch
But she would have a longer career than the girls

So Simon changed the rules to get his two acts onto the tour. I bet he wouldn't have done that for anyone else's acts.

Tonight’s show proved that Louis Tomlinson’s army of stans should not be allowed to vote. Notice how he has 3 acts left? It’s cos of them. A&A should have gone. Shan has been consistent throughout, they have not.

I loved Cheryl's performance... best vocals ever, no! But she can always put on a damn good show!

I do hope Cheryl managed to eventually escape from that bin liner.

It was a couture bin liner though, I have it on good authority. Not just any old bin liner for our Cheryl.

Between those two acts, Shan should probably have been saved - but she needs serious help with her technique and control. Her timing goes, her pitch goes, she tends towards shouting on big notes.
She is far from the finished article - and I do struggle to see a place for her in the current industry. I don't think her voice is distinctive enough to stand out on repeated radio play and she isn't reliable enough to sustain a stage role given that she can't get through a 2 minute song without cracking on top notes.

I won’t be going to the tour this year. I went last year and the production looked cheap and tired. I came away with a headache too as they were having sound issues all night and very noticeable mic feedback.

I came away with a headache too as they were having sound issues all night and very noticeable mic feedback. I went to three of the tours (the winners the years I went were Little Mix, James Arthur and Sam Bailey), and all three times I had a great time! And it was always great to have the boybands on or like one song and then you never see them again. 😂😂 but obviously Little Mix were the best by a mile!

The performers were great, but due to tech issues and general production problems, I couldn't enjoy myself as much as previous years. Perhaps it's down to the venue too (Newcastle Metro arena) which has pretty awful acoustics from previous experiences (went to Lady Gaga there a few years ago - also had quite bad sounds, ditto for Craig David), but that time it just seemed way worse.

I have also read that the X Factor contract for next year has already been signed despite low audience figures... Seriously, this show needs to take a well needed break!

I think they need to keep a consistent format. They’ve messed about with it too much that by this point it’s beyond repair.

Just seen the ABBA segment. Oh dear, that didn’t go too well. There’s a 15min lesson in how to ruin classic songs. Can we please not try this again in the future?

Wow... Turned this on just for something to watch and I am really shocked at the semi final line up! Not a bit of talent in plain sight! I get the feeling that the producers of the show encourage the girls with capable(ish) voices to oversing their songs and add uneccesary runs and high notes to impress (works for most of those zombies though it seems). Last of the talent went with Shan in my opinion, a real shame as they gave her all the wrong song choices.

Dalton can sing - and sing well - but lacks confidence as soon as he stops Scarlet isn't special in the slightest - perfectly decent - but nothing unique Anthony has a backstory but a rough voice A&A have attitude. That is it. Attitude.
