Competition from a Rugby match meant the X Factor decided against coming a poor second or third on Saturday evening and just put on a Sunday show.
Olly and Caroline get the Sunday evening show off to a good start by doing the introduction to the contestants getting ready for the Choose a song and sing it section. They are a good pair but woefully under-utilised so far.
Silvertone is the older girl gospel style group. They are all over the place with the harmonies and even timing. I won't say anything about the dancing. No matter how 'disappointed' Simon may say he is, there are plenty more good acts to make the Live Shows.
Lauren seems to have poured herself into her jeans, or eaten a great deal since putting them on. She was a bit average in her solo performance compared to the big impression she'd made before.
Brodie Kelly is the good-looking young chap who also did very well before but this time was very nervous and hardly managed to get through Diamonds, the Rihanna song. A less attractive guy, Simon Lynch, did better but looked like he might join the queue of 'could do betters'. However, he turned The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face into something memorably much better which ought to hep him through.
Josh Daniel was average. He's one of the best in this category says Cheryl. Really? replies Simon.
Seann Miley Moore is a definite star for this year. He is brilliant in many ways with a cool personality and really is trying hard. Simon says Think like a winner. I think many of us see him as a winner already. After a few uncertain acts, the last two set the standard that others in the Boys category will need to match. I am assuming that Seann will be on the Boys category. That is by no means certain.
Anton is the backing singer who is well-used to being on the stage and his first audition was excellent. He should make it through on th basis of his ability and experience and he would be a lovable candidate on the Live Shows. But much depends on his choice of songs and this one was not a good one. If it was in tune ten I can only assume it was in one of several tunes. It lost me, although he was clearly trying terribly hard to get across the message in his song. He might have managed - in a weird way.
Alien get tagged with Groups 17-24 so that must be one category which implies there might be a Group Overs. They're sort of OK and I have a feeling they're the sort of fun group that the panel will want to put through. There may be several others, though, so it's too early to be sure. We know they'll be up against The Four Filipinos anyway.
Tonatha is like a young Sunitta. She ought to get through. Nice lady and a good performer.
Joseph McCaul doesn't strike me as a winner of this competition, despite being a good singer but his stage stance is odd. I don't see anyone joining his fan club.
Monica Michael is back after not making Judges' Houses last year. She sounds strong and can certainly sing but I feel she's a bit old fashioned and 'last year'. She may get through to Judges' Houses this year but I am not sure how much further she'll go. She did do a superb version of Ain't No Sunshine this time. The earrings out me off big time, though.
Crazy times again with Papasidero and his wings. OK but he should forget the fancy performance and the silly high notes.
Gem is soome old bloke who shouldn't have been allowed to get this far. Awful.
Andre Batchelor can dance well but his singing leaves a huge amount to be desired. Just amusing now.
Che Chesterman delays a lot and just goes silent which I think is an attention thing. He sings pretty well but isn't someone I can see a record company wanting to support, however good his voice is. God singer but odd personality.
Havva messes up. Jamie the Olly look-a-like too. Ebru stopped halfway though, or seemed to.
Mason Noise is a bit over-confident and self-aggrandising but is actually very good.
Bupsi is one of the older ones. She put on a mad performance before but this time does Rvery Time You Go Away quite well. She's an average singer but has quite a bit of appeal.
Ben Clark has a good voice, a bit like Che, and neither is what we'd really want to see on an album cover but, of the two, he has more appeal.
4th Power are so professional, delivering a mad version of Titanium with bags of power. Very co-ordinated and they can work together so well. They'll be through and still loo like winners to me.
The First Kings got great crowd support on the first audition. They're tagged Groups 21-28, They do some harmony stuff this time. Not bad. Not something I would rush to hear again but a decent job done. A bit dated, Simon and Chryl say.
Holly Johnson is nice and can sing well.
Ankhush Khanna shoudn't be there. He's OK but that's all and he is a bit painful to listen to.
A big girl with a big voice. I didn't like that. Someone who I did like is Kiera Wethers. A super audition, one of the better ones.
Louisa Johnson is a talent to be reckoned with. She looks good and performs well. I am not a big fan of her voice but she does look good. A definite contender for the Live Shows.
Essex girl Chloe, blonde No. 2, is very similar so there won't be room for both. I feel she may lose out to Louisa.
Gifty is another sort of blonde. No idea how old she is but she is one of the most accurate singers of the whole Boot Camp thing. Very good.
Charli Beard has an excellent voice too. Not as good as Gifty but a nice personality and a sort of happy girl.
Decision time. 24 acts for Judges' Houses. First they cut down to about 60 acts, 15 in each category.
Next week the 6 Chair Challenge will provide plenty of drama as the panel try to choose the six acts they prefer. Now they really should know which they want but it always seems to be a problem making decisions on the night. No doubt that will be the case again.
