Thoughts on preminarly round 1

Thought to give a mark for each different area on each act, with a grade.

A+ - 90% and above

A - 80% to 89%

B - 70% to 79%

C - 60% to 69%

D - 50% to 59%

E - 40% to 49%

Fail - 39% and below

Ashleigh and Sully - Overall Grade: C (65%)

Personally did not like it and I do not think they should have been in the top 3. The act was overall okay, but there was limited sync with the song and I did not feel the tricks matched the song.

Talent: It's hard to train dogs and the dog did have some wonderful tricks, despite the background; Grade: B (73%)

Entertaintment: Good act but as I said before, I did not feel the act; Grade D (56%)

Creativity: Good; Grade C (65%)

Bello and Annaielese Nock - Overall Grade: C (60%)

I know this is a difficult act but I have seen many people doing it, even blind folded. The act was not good as Bello's quarter finals either. Good song choice though, and it was entertaining at the first 45 seconds, but then got boring since it became a little 'repeating'. Do not think should be in the top 3.

Talent: Difficult act, but I have seen it before, with much dangerous tasks being involved in it; Grade D (52%)

Entertaintment: Was engaging in the first minute, but got boring after, good song choice; Grade A (80%)

Creativity: Could have made the act more dangerous, and highly entertaining; Grade E (49%)

Connie Talbot - Overall Grade: B (78%)

I thought it was beautiful and the song was really engaging. However, I saw many people commenting that she should have been on the top 3, but I do not agree. The song was emotional, yes, and it was really beautiful as I said before, but I forgot her after I saw the other acts.

Talent: Brilliant voice, and original song; Grade A (85%)

Entertaintment: Was beautiful, but I know if I felt the performance, I would have remembered it at the end; Grade B (72%)

Creativity: Original song was not disappointing; Grade B (78%)

The Nelson Twins - Overall Grade C (69%)

I agree with Simon, the first 30 seconds was not that good, was slow, but then it became enjoyable. However, when comparing with other stand up comedians, it was not that good, but it was heavily entertaining at the specific moment. Did I want to watch it again? No, but it was okay. Top 3, nope.

Talent: Good jokes, not good at beginning; Grade C (69%)

Entertaintment: Slow in the first two three jokes but then it became better; Grade B (70%)

Creativity: "Dual" Comedy seems good, but could have done a much better job. British have a thing for comedians; Grade C (69%)

Bad Salsa - Overall Grade D (52%)

This was the most forgetful act of the night. I did not like the choreography either, the ending was good, but I have seen it in Sofie's act which was better and another dance routing in America's got Talent, which the name have escaped my mind. Not suitable for top 3 at all.

Talent: Salsa dance wise, they are good, did not like choreography. Grade B (72%)

Entertaintment: I personally did not like it and forgot about it soon after wards cos the next few acts were quite strong. Grade E (45%)

Creativity: I did not think it was creative, maybe Paddi and Nico have something to offer. Grade E (40%)

Kseniya Simonova - Overall Grade A+ (95%)

I personally thought this was the best act of the night. The sync, music, creativity all excelled. Brilliant performance overall. Deserves the golden buzzer and finals as well.

Talent: Exceptional. Grade A+ (95%)

Entertaintment: Quite engaging. Grade A (89%)

Creativity: No words to describe. Brilliant topic to talk about as well. Grade A+ (100%)

Boogie Storm - Overall Grade D (59%)

This seems like a normal dance group, only the fact was that they were in star wars theme. Did not like it all. I do not think they should be in top 3.

Talent: Normal dance group; Grade D (50%)

Entertaintment: Star wars theme made it good, and the use of the small fella etc. ; Grade C (68%)

Creativity: alright I guess. Grade C (60%)

The Sacred Riana - Overall Grade A+ (91%)

I think this was one of Riana's best performances apart from ones done in  Asias got talent. America's gt talent acts wasn't that great but this was quite engaging and thrilling. Magic maybe easy to recognize but I watched it quite a few times, and was very pleased with the thrill I get. Amanda made the act even better unlike MelB. Top 3, yes.

Talent: Magic was quite alright, not as good as Shins or Erics, but it was decent. Grade A (80%)

Entertaintment: This was really entertaining for me personally, and I thought it was the most entertaining act of the night. Grade A+ (98%)

Creativity: As Alesha said, could feel the spooky intese and it was good overall. Grade A+ (96%)

Paul Potts - Overall Grade A (89%)

I thought it was really good, and entertaining, and agree that he should have been in the top 3.

Talent: Exceptional. Grade A+ (90%)

Entertaintment: Was quite engaging, Grade A (88%)

Creaitivity: Good. Grade A (89%)
