A few more get through to Boot Camp in Wembley Auditions Pt 11⁄2

The Joys
mad and cheerful
kids' entertainers
pretty amateur but fun and immensely likeable couple. Queen's Somebody To Love ?? They make Boot Camp. That was a surprise as it's Mel B who didn't like them first time round now saves them!

Kane
Hypnotherapy helps
Only three judges as Mel B is away in America. Odd how they jump across days. I wonder how long these went on for?
Bit of 'show panic'. Then some strange track with no backing track to it. Never heard of that before. Bit of a mess but he gets a pass through to Boot Camp. If he could sort out his nerves he could be interesting.

The Pow Pow girls
7! They look great and have bundles of enthusiasm. Firework was dreadful, though. Such a shame as they had lots of potential. They sort of got better as they went on but was it enough of an improvement? Yes, all but Mel B but seriously they were not very good and I can't see them going much further despite the obvious appeal they'd have on TV. Maybe they'll get some help and get it together? Simon sees a UK Fifth Harmony, perhaps. Expect a name change to Seventh Symphony!

The Xtra Factor seems as interesting as its parent programme although I am not impressed with the presenter. I miss Rylan and Caroline Flack and that other amusing guy whose name escapes me but I have seen him on a Big Brother panel so he's still around. Quite a cool character but producers obviously decided to go for some Mel B type.

Florentine Harris
Florentine? Trained and remarkable voice, but this is a girl for the stage. She's a West End sounding girl but if she can pull off a 'modern' track then that would be great to hear. Like A Prayer starts a bit heavily. Then it's downhill when it should have been uphill. Pity. She can sing really well but neither sounds nor dresses right. Actually the last notes were pretty bad. I was glad it ended. Louis actually says 'Yes'! So does Mel for some weird reason. Cheryl, absolutely amazingly, in complete contrast to earlier broadcast decisions. says 'Yes' too!! Unbelievable. I suppose they fit the 'entertainment' section like those awful 51 year olds.

Jack Jenkins
Croydon
Pants
Popular lad who's good-looking. Ignition isn't a track I know but sounds a bit like Bruno Mars. Simon and Mel B say No which really surprised me. Simon takes notice of the crowd who love him and changes his mind. That was close! I've seen a lot worse get through.
