Mrs Frugal Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Same here ! Loved them both but Diversity had something just that bit more special about their routine. I'd love to see them win. Saying that, we also thought that the singing rugby lad was terrific and really liked his take on "With or without you". I don't want Susan Boyle to win. Her "showboating" is really annoying. I'd rather someone more humble won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 yes I liked Shaun too!, and he sang that song so simplly and flawlessly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillus Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Looking forward to seeing Greg tonight, he is weirdly wonderful ( is that spelling right?) But I really hope that Stavros Flatley and son wins, never take life too seriously! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I'm torn with who to vote for too I loved Diversity and Flawless but agree that Diversity just had the edge. Stavros Flatley are brilliant and definitely have the fun factor, but Shaun Smith was fantastic too . I agree about Susan Boyle. I think the hype has far outweighed her talent. Yes she has got a very good voice but she was definitely flat at the semi-final and I seriously doubt whether she has the ability to cope with all the attention that is coming her way.

Jillus Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Holly was too young, how very sad. I think that there should be an age limit of say 14 to prevent this sort of thing happening. It was the same with the little girl in round one. Too much pressure, too much hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitbag Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Bless her! She is a good singer as well! I can't help thinking wether Simon Cowell would be as sympathetic to an older person! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEB Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 i definately think there should be an age limit. I found watching Hollie upsetting, and definately not entertainment! I agree aswell, that Simon would not be so understanding to an adult, but he's a softie when it comes to children and animals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathybc Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 poor little thing, the pressure must have been intense. What was Simon mouthing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 I agree. I too found it very upsetting. As you say an adult wouldn't have got the same treatment. i just hope she performs as best she can next time.

cathybc Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Aidan was terrific and seems like a really nice kid. I too hope Hollie does OK second time round, she is very brave to give it another go, not sure if I can watch, it was so upsetting, just wanted to run on stage and cuddler her. Here goes.....

Joojoo Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I'm a bit behind everyone else as I had to pop out so recorded BGT. Just seen Holly. How horrendous was that? I'm sat here in tears after watching that. Poor little thing. I think it is far too much pressure at such a young age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillus Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I really hope that she does not get through on a sympathy vote, she has had enough and won't win overall as there are far better acts and then it will be even worse for her self confidence. It was troubling to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 The Holly bit was so painful, poor girl. Way too much pressure far too early. Aidan on the other hand - just amazing! Fantastic !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Bah. It's about performing, and if she can't perform then she shouldn't be on there! However sadly I think the gorgeous Greg didn't give a great performance tonight, so it was probably fair that she got through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 talk about pushy mum! If she hasd been mine I wouldn't be turning round saying can she do it again (even though I know thats what holly wanted) she had been through enough. She's only 10 and I really dont feel thats any age, I said it a while back and I still agree with myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
