Occasional greatness, but slow and laborious. Not enough big moments in the song – which she has the talent to reach. Looked sensational though!

Stole the show. Moody, classy, and meant every word of the song. What big band week is all about. Shame on Simon for not acknowledging she hit the big notes, after saying she couldn’t do it in previous weeks.


The only one who looks like he lives for singing and can’t wait to get up there. Not bothered about pleasing judges or the public, just wants to perform. Perfect vocal and has the confidence to go for the big notes again and again. Quite cute too!


Loved it. Looked great, sang great. So much potential, can’t wait to see what they come up with next. Bring it on!


A review favourite, but is going to suffer and the review lays the blame with ‘the man at the end of the panel’. It wasn’t cheating, but it wasn’t fair play either. Having a theme each week shows the versatility of the acts, and the review suspects Jamie might have sang U2 quite regularly in [...]


A relaxed performance, Olly was always going to suit big band week. BUT poor Olly, he’s a good singer, a great dancer, has bags of personality and is a natural performer but in this strong field he just doesn’t shine.


Don’t see what all the fuss is about. Looked like Jim Carey in the film the Mask. Judges keep saying he is a nice guy because the performance was awful. Sang samba like a ballad…. As you do!

Ok so she changed her image and sang well, but would you really buy her record. Admire her guts for fighting rather than crying for a change, but overall nothing special. And the interview OMG OTT.


Didn’t really look like he knew what a big band was. Nice tone, but no performance. Most of the time looked like he was reading an autocue. Louis was right though. Get thou to a boy band asap. Looked good on the sum up, but boring to watch for the whole song. Good looks should [...]


So self-absorbed, completely oblivious to the fact they were surrounded by half naked women! The review is not feeling guilty about this pleasure!


Who knew he would be missed so much. Order is restored. Thought he was reading the reviews mind a few times, e.g. Jamie did sing like karaoke!


As always gave well thought out constructive criticisms of the acts.


The review’s favourite judge wasn’t on form this week. To much bias towards his own acts again, although always right to stick up for Daniel who doesn’t get the credit he deserves.


Never comments on the singing. Is this because she doesn’t know much about it? Always just the performance. Copied Dannii several times. Needs to be more ‘authentic’!


Michael was a top tipster for the contestants. Made them all feel good about themselves. Looked interested and was helpful. A great confidence booster.
