I don't think there's any doubt that Connie will win, unfortunately. She's a lovely little girl and has a beautiful voice, but she'll win because children always get the vote. Bessy has much more stage presence and I think she is more entertaining.
I agree with much of what you say curlyperm, but I did like the baton twirler and the little lad comedian. I don't think the woman welder should have got through to the semi's, nor that woman who did madonna, or the ballroom dancing kids and the other dancing kids. There were better acts than them who didn't get through to the semi's and it's a shame that they didn't get their chance.
