Britains Got Talent 2010 Episode 7 Review

Britain’s Got Talent 2010 Episode 7 aired on 29th of May 2010. Tonight’s show was the last of the auditions with the live semi finals starting on Monday the 31st. There’s a semi final on every day next week but more on that later! Tonight’s show was on for an hour and a half and was a roundup of all the remaining auditions. There seemed to be more dance groups on it than anything though!

First up was Christine Hill and Timmy the Pig. Apparently Timmy has the talent of mouthing the words to Michael Jackson songs. So Beat It start playing and surprisingly the pig did mouth along to the words. It was pretty funny. Christine and Timmy got through the advice that they should try opera next time.

The first of many dance groups tonight. Taboo were a bunch of girls with crimped hair and green streaks in it. They were aged 7 to 23 and did enough to get through. Do we really need Taboo to get through? There’s more to come unfortunately.

Alesia Vasmitzel came on in a greed spandex outfit that didn’t leave much to imagination. She’s originally from Belarus and she’s a student and housewife. She did some interesting acrobatics on a pole much to Simon and Piers amusement and of course she got through.

Sean Sheehan is a part time mechanic and teacher and came on with the act of chopping wood to Kenny Rogers music. No I’m serious that was the act. Even worse, Piers and Amanda put him through. This prompted Simon to follow Amanda out to the toilet to ask her while she was peeing, why she put him through.

Peridot were another dance group from London. I’ve lost count of the number of groups who’ve came on and tried to promote the positive sides of dance groups it usually goes along the lines of oh it keeps out of trouble. Unfortunately it keeps Peridot wearing ridiculous yellow cardigans with their name and logo on the back. As you probably know by now I hate dance groups but I didn’t hate Peridot. They actually did something original for once. The cardies were terrible though and they got through.

Then we had the weirdest act of the night. Mehmet and Kelsey were an act known as Ali Baba and ITV treated us to some clips of the arguing backstage so we knew it was going to be good. Mehmet was dressed up like Michael Jackson and when he came out on stage he explained that he was an entertainer from Turkey and had met Kelsey while she was on holiday. They weren’t an item however. From then on it got weird. We were treated to some fairly average Michael Jackson dancing then Simon and Piers buzzed so Mehmet walked off stage. Ant and Dec had to talk him into going back on. He eventually did followed by Kelsey who ran on to the Dirty Dancing music and attempted to recreate the lift scene from the same movie. It didn’t work and Kelsey almost ended up hitting the stage much to the annoyance of Mehmet. They managed to get it second time around. So Kelsey skips off and Mehmet left us with some crazy Turkish solo dancing. Bonkers! Ali Baba didn’t get through.

Peter and Doreen were a nice old couple who were strictly friends. Peter had a great wig on too it was tremendous. They were aged 73 and 76 and were pretty bad at singing. They got three no’s.

Suzanne Bigmore treated us to some singing and keyboard playing with a song called Night Flight to Abu Dhabi. Awful! She didn’t get through.

Stephen Florence came on with his dummy Wellington and didn’t endear himself to anyone really. Simon buzzed him pretty much as soon as he sat down. He started his act but the crowed hated it and started booing so Stephen Florence turned on them. He tried to shh them and then said he’d do some do some decent ventriloquism if they’d shut up. He then stood up and told the crowd how rude an ignorant they were before stomping off stage. He didn’t get through either.

Dance Flavourz were yet another dance group this time with a bit of a Brazilian theme to it. Francis, a guy who was camper than a row of tents, put the group together. Even his wife(?) was in it. Anyway they did their thing, very colourful blah blah they danced around and got through like EVERY SINGLE OTHER DANCE GROUP ON THIS SHOW!!!

The Fusion were…another dance group! AHHH! They sounded like they were from the Glasgow auditions and were all dressed up like the Wicked Witch of the West. Simon didn’t like them and buzzed them out but they got through thanks to Piers and Amanda.

Kev Orkian was the best of the night for me. He came on and explained he was Armenian and was going to sing an Elton John as he’d learned it from a scratched CD. So he sang it like that, some parts fast some slow, some sticking on the same word. It was really funny. Everyone loved it and he revealed at the end he was actually from London.

James and Graham, otherwise known as Father and Son were a singing act who also got through. I thought they were pretty average and Simon agreed but he still put them through.

A3 were three brothers from Swansea and provided us with the most sickening opening sequence of the night. They were going on and on about how great it was to be on stage with their brothers  and how much they love each other. Too sugary sweet for me. They started off dancing to The Prodigy’s Breathe and also got through. They were all crying on stage and it was all really emotional. For them not me I honestly couldn’t care less.

Team Shaolin made up the ten millionth dance group on the series of Britain’s Got Talent. What do you think the outcome was? Yes they got through. I wonder how many dance groups will make it through to the semi finals?

Emile Harris came on singing his own song and sounded like a decent singer. He got through.

Nathan Fitzpatrick seemed to get through on his cuteness rather than his talent. We wiggled his eye brows to some music. He had a red t shirt on too with something about eye brows on it, I think it said Ultimate Eyebrows.

To finish off the auditions we had an old drag queen on doing Madonna. He had been on in 2007 pretending to be Kylie so ITV did a little flashback to show the clip. Amanda Holden was in it too and wow she looks like a totally different person. She’s had so much work done. Anyway, Phillip Grimmer was one of those stupid auditions where Piers and Amanda put him through just to annoy Simon. It was silly, he just danced around to a Madonna song.

Semi Final Cut

Very tense now! We were shown the judges deciding who would go through to the semi final as 183 acts had to be cut down to just 40. Amanda was wearing a short black, grey and red dress for this one. This seemed to go on forever and then ITV were wonderful and didn’t give us a list of who got through and who didn’t. Anyway here is the complete list of the Britain’s Got Talent 2010 Semi Finalists:

Semi Final Acts

There were lots of others but they just flashed through them so I didn’t catch a lot of them. You can bet that every single dance group got through to the semi final.
