I have to say that I think last night's semifinal was the weakest yet--until the final act, I could not pick out a winner.
I agree with Craig from the show [and Marian] that the final line up is distinctively lacking in humour, and I believe Craig should have gone through. Out of the 10 acts in the final, 3 are singers--1 dog--1 musical group--and 5 sets of dancers---way too many dancers.
I am not sure about the final result now--There are several exceptional talents going head to head.

Great show tonight--I am sure it was better than last year's--I found it impossible to predict a winner, and I only picked out 1 of the top 3.
I was actually quite surprised at the result, but really pleased to see a different act go through. I was amazed to see "Signature" in the final 2---I did not expect that, and could not really figure out how they did that.
I felt sorry for Andrew J, as he had been tipped for the top, and he was much better tonight, a great deal less tense, which made for a better performance.
I was surprised at Faryl singing "Ave Maria", as she had said that she would sing "Amazing Grace"--she was being compared to Charlotte Church, which is crazy, as she is nothing like Charlotte--a totally different voice.
The other Andrew was very ordinary tonight , I thought---remembering David A singing "Imagine" on American Idol--there was just no comparison. Kate and Gin did well, also "The Cheeky Monkeys"., but I do not think they were ever going to win, with such strong competition.
But I think Escala were let down by their music choice tonight--it was much better last night. But overall a really entertaining show.
