Awww - farewell Niamh. Sad to see her go, but you know that we're going to see a lot of her in the future :? I loved the nancy's doing 'Gonna wash that man' - I really liked Jodie in that and hope that she or Rachel wins.

As for the future of these show, I think they are much better than the ITV's talent show offerings. They have a clear structure and show how much hard work goes into being a stage star.

Jodie's the best for me, also.

Amanda is going nuts hoping she'll win!:)

It was more or less expected that Niamh would go this week, but then when it came to the sing-off with Rachel we still wondered.
Jodie is without doubt the ideal Nancy and that 's what the decision should be about,..even though Rachel has been a strong favourite all along, but we still wonder about Jodies personality. :lol:

Did anyone listen to Elaine Paige yesterday. Helena Blackman who was runner up to Connie Fisher for Maria in The Sound Of Music was Elaines guest.
Nice to hear her favourite songs from the musicals, and to hear how well she is doing.
She has appeared in productions of Gypsy, The Wizard of Oz, Concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, concerts in Toronto. and is currently appearing as Nellie Forbush in South Pacific. :lol: :lol:

I didn't hear that L&H, but its reassuring to know that the runners-up have been able to realise their dreams as well!

I have been unable to connect for a few days-but back to normal now.

My favourite last week was , surprisingly Samantha-who I have never liked before--that song from "Wicked" did it for her--of the remaining, not one impressed me.So as far as I could see, any of them could have gone-especially Jessie. But in the end it was Niamh--I thought she was great singing "Another suitcase" one of my favourite ALW tracks--did not like Rachel at all, she I think Niamh should have stayed--although /denise is quite right that Niamh would make a great "Bet".

I agree that Jodie is looking and sounding more and more like Nancy every week.

Just watched the Nancys. I suppose any one of them could play the role at this stage, but I can't help feeling Rachel is the panel's favourite after the show tonight. :wink: :wink:
I'm going to stay with one of my original choices from the very start..
Samantha. :D :D
Marian :wink:

I have a feeling that Jessie is going tomorrow.

Out of the 3 I want Jodie to win--I do not like either of the others much--especially Rachel--I just cannot see her as Nancy---but she did a good "Cabaret" tonight.

Amanda and I still would like to see Jodie win the contest.
I think Jessie will leave toay, she is the weakest of the 4 left, for me.

Well, Jessie was the one who was expected to go tonight, but we weren't totally surprised that she was left in, and one of the favourite's voted out.
With the Three who are left it makes the choice of voting easier.
We were still sorry to see Rachel go.
You can tell that we are not convinced that the final decision is down to the viewers :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes, it was rather a surprising result I felt. The three remaining must be feeling rather despondant I should think, with Jodie and Jessie receiving harsh comments from the judges about "not being Nancy" and Samantha, knowing she came last in the viewers vote. :cry: :cry: :cry:
Marian :D

Oh dear - a real case of the voting public getting it wrong! I really think that either Jodie or Jessie should have gone tonight especially after seeing the acting in tonights show. Jodie just doesn't seem to be a good enough actress and Jessie just doesn't look right! Out of the three I'd have to say Sam now.

I am sure that even Jessie herself was surprised to be saved last night by the public. But when all is said and done, Jessie and Jodie are the two who have never been in a sing-off.

The 2 remaining were my 2 least favourites--Samantha gave a much better performance of "Memory"--Rachel just kept looking into space.

Maybe Jodie's over-reactions to being saved--especially last night --will go against her--she needs to control herself more. But I still see her more as Nancy than I do Samantha or Jessie.

What a shock! I really thought Jessie would've gone.
It's still Jodie for me, I'm afraid.
She has a wonderful voice and sorry Mike, I think she can act. :oops:
To me, she is the only one who pulls from life's experiences in her singing to deliver a song.

Sad to see Rachel go though. Along with Samantha and Jodie I thought she would make the top the three.
