Episode 1 Comic Relief Does Glee Club

Comic Relief Does Glee Club is back!

This year's all-singing and all-dancing musical extravaganza

promises to be bigger and better than ever.

Hundreds of hopefuls from across the UK

will dance and sing their hearts out.

Last year, The Real Deal took the title,

but now it's time to find a new winner.

This is Comic Relief Does Glee Club 2013.

Hello and welcome to Comic Relief Does Glee Club.

Yes, we are back with a brand-new series

to find the UK's best young glee club,

and all in the name of Comic Relief.

Last autumn, we travelled all over the country

to find the most talented young singing and dancing groups

the UK has to offer.

The top 24 acts were then invited to perform at the judges' auditions,

and with only 15 places up for grabs in the studio heats,

the pressure was on.

But before that, let's take a look at where our Glee Club journey took us.

Naomi, and this year's new judge, John Modi,

travelled all over the country

in their quest to bring you the best glee clubs Britain has to offer.

# Cos we are living in a material world... #

Their journey started in Newcastle,

where they checked out the North East's performing talent...

# I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way... #

..before heading across the water to Belfast.

ALL: One, two, three.

# Annie, are you OK? Will you tell us that you're OK? #

Today, we're in Glasgow!

Next stop was Glasgow, with Scottish groups determined to impress John

with more show-stopping performances.

You're excited that we're finding talent in Glasgow.

I'm very excited about Glasgow. Love it.

The search continued south of the border in sunny Manchester,

with more groups giving it their all.

-# You can't stop

-# You can't stop... #

Cardiff was next on the hit list to find more top acts,

before finally heading to the Big Smoke - London...

There's a whole hive of activity out here.

..where they saw even more amazing talent.

Lol.

The standard on the tour was incredible,

but it was down to John to select the top 24 glee clubs

that would perform again here at the judges' auditions.

Now, you may be wondering where Sam and Mark are. Well, don't worry -

they will be here for the studio heats in a few days' time.

However, I am pleased to say that our resident judges are back.

As usual, they'll be keeping a close eye on the proceedings

and making those all-important decisions.

So let's meet the people who will be deciding the fate of our groups,

and some very special guests.

Carrie and David are two of the UK's best-known celebrity vocal coaches.

-That was really good. I love your energy.

-Breathtaking.

They've worked with a whole host of pop artists,

from the Spice Girls and Take That to The Saturdays.

Celebrity vocal and performance coach John

has worked with a variety of stars,

from Leona Lewis to Olly Murs and Alexandra Burke.

He has also worked behind-the-scenes on top shows

like The Voice and X Factor.

Offering additional advice to the groups will be...

West End star and X Factor winner Joe McElderry.

He's recorded four albums and his debut single, The Climb,

topped the UK charts.

Soul singer and presenter Dionne Bromfield -

she's been nominated for a MOBO Award, has recorded two albums

and finds time to present CBBC's Friday Download.

And X Factor finalist and television presenter Stacey Solomon -

not only has she wowed audiences with her voice,

she is also a regular star on our TV screens.

OK, this is the serious bit. Serious face.

Over the next three shows,

our judges will be deciding which acts they want to see again.

The top 15 acts will then perform right here on this stage

in front of a live audience in the studio heats.

The five groups with the highest scores across the heats

will then compete in the live finals where you at home

get to decide who will be crowned

Comic Relief Does Glee Club winners 2013.

It's as simple as that.

Right, we have eight glee clubs to see in this show,

so let's meet the first group.

One, two, three.

-# Tingle... #

-ALL: Oh!

Oh, yeah, I remember these guys. M.A.D - mad.

Yeah. They are, in many ways, very good that way.

ALL: Go, Aisha! Go, Aisha!

Have you got any issues today, anything you're worrying about,

anything that has not gone quite to plan so far?

-I'm losing my voice.

-Yeah, Aisha's losing her voice.

-You're losing your voice? You're a soloist?

-A big part in it as well.

Is this because you've been talking too much?

ALL: No!

It's been going slowly over the past few days.

Drink some lemon tea.

-Are you feeling all right?

-She's going to push it to the limit.

I'm just going to push it really hard.

-Don't worry, I'll be here.

-Claire! Please.

# Everything that could go wrong

# All went wrong at one time

# So much pressure fell on me

# I thought I was going to lose my mind

# But I know you wanna see

# If I can hold on through these trials

# But I need you to lift this load

# Cos I can't take it no more

# Shackles off my feet so I can dance

# I just want to praise you

# I just want to praise you

# You broke the chains Now I can lift my hands

# And I'm going to praise you

# I'm going to praise you

# Through the fire and the rain

# Bound in every kind of way

# But God has broken every chain... #

Go on, Aisha. Find that voice.

# Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance

# So I can dance

# I just want to praise you

# I just want to praise you

# You broke the chains Now I can lift my hands

# I can lift my hands

# And I'm going to praise you

-# I'm going to praise you

-# I'm going to praise you

# Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance

# Oh

# I just want to praise you

-# I just want to praise you

-# I just want to praise you

# You broke the chains Now I can lift my hands

# I can lift my hands

# And I'm going to praise you

# I'm going to praise you

# I'm going to praise you, yeah! #

That is probably one of the hardest songs to cover and cover well.

You guys absolutely nailed it.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

You have really strong solo singers.

What's your name, young lady?

-Yeah.

-Aisha.

Aisha, you're like... You just reminded me of Mary J Blige.

ALL: Oh!

You've got an outstanding voice.

You've got good voices in there and you've got great dance energy

and there's a real unity. It was fantastic.

ALL: Thank you.

That was a really slick performance.

And you had the right balance between the choreography

and the singing. It didn't affect...

It was very entertaining to watch the choreography

but it didn't affect the vocals. Your solo part was incredible.

-Thank you.

-Like, ridiculous. How old are you?

-15. Oh, wait, 15? 16.

-16.

That's scary. That was really...

It was a brilliant performance, well done.

ALL: Thank you.

-Your voice held out, did it?

-Yeah.

-Yay!

-Compared to Mary J Blige!

-I know.

-High praise indeed.

-What do you think about that?

-Amazing.

-Oh, you're so croaky.

-Yeah.

My goodness, if that's you on a bad day... Wow.

She really was young Mary.

-She really sounds like Mary J Blige.

-Yeah.

# I'm going to praise you, yeah! #

# All I want is a proper, proper coffee made in a proper coffee pot! #

# Pushing down on me... #

# I'm going to let it shine. #

-Next up, we have Triple Threat. Sounds very dangerous.

-Oh, scary.

I liked them. They were very Glee-esque.

They're what I would call "tryers" and I think they will get better.

-Good. Did you enjoy it?

-ALL: Yes.

I think it's a case of whether or not they believe in themselves.

There's individual solos and stuff which are pretty good.

Have you had any dramas in the run-up to this or has it all been smooth?

I ended up with a sore throat and I had a solo in the piece

and I've had to change it around cos my throat's been really sore.

-Oh, my darling. How are you feeling?

-I'm all right.

-I just need to get through it.

-Are you going to be all right?

-Yeah.

Save it a little bit on the rehearsals.

-So who's taking your solo?

-Courtney.

-OK. How does that feel?

-Cos that's a bit last-minute. You've been thrown in the deep end.

-Erm...

I am nervous but I'll get through it.

# Under pressure! #

# Pressure

# Pushing down on me

# Pressing down on you No man ask for

# Under pressure

# That burns a building down

# Splits a family in two

# Puts people on the streets

# It's the terror of knowing what this world is about

# And watching some good friends screaming

# Let me out

# Pray tomorrow gets me higher

# Pressure on people

# People on the streets

# One by one

# Only the good die young

# They're only flying too close to the sun

# And life, it goes on

-# Without you... #

-Good!

# One by one

-# One by one

-# Only the good die young

# Good die young

# They're only flying too close to the sun

# Crying for no-one

# No-one but you. #

-How did that compare to how you've seen it before?

-Really well.

-They'll be really pleased with that.

-Excellent.

You've got your harmonies all coming together nicely,

the timing coming together nicely,

great to watch, really easy on the eye.

My one point to you would be that, at the moment,

you're just singing with volume.

I'd like you to look at, "How do we beautify that,

"make it smoother, more easy on the ear?"

-That's the one thing I'd ask you to look at.

-It's just a bit more...

I'd say, chemistry between you,

just trying to sort of make sure

that you acknowledge each other a little bit more as a whole.

And that I think would actually just give the viewer something a bit more

and it would draw us more into the performance.

ALL: Thank you.

Sometimes the key doesn't suit all of you,

so at points it felt a bit low for some

and a little bit high for others,

but, otherwise, individually, you were all absolutely fantastic.

ALL: Thank you.

So, tell me, how did that go? ALL: Amazing.

You really enjoyed it? Your leg thingamabob went well, didn't it?

Did you get all warmed up?

So your voice, you know, maybe not on top form but your legs are.

Brilliant.

It's easy when you've got that many kids

to actually favour volume and energy over quality.

And the hard thing is to get the absolutely right mix of both,

so you're getting all the energy

but you're also getting the best quality you can.

Sometimes, that means pulling back the volume.

# No-one but you. #

Both M.A.D and Triple Threat have struggled with their voices,

but still put in solid performances.

Next up, another two groups get the opportunity to impress the judges.

I love your sound.

I think you might have pulled it off.

I think you've still got potential to be an awesome group.

-The next act is The Sweets...

-The Sweets!

..and you guys will remember them

because every one of them is the original member.

Yeah. I remember liking them, so...

# She said I love you more than words can say... #

-How did it feel last year?

-It was amazing.

It was a really good experience.

Never done anything like that before.

# And now you want to pretend that you're a superstar... #

-Really nerve-wracking.

-Is it?

-Yeah.

And are you feeling nervous today?

I feel a bit better because I'm used to it from last year.

-Yeah.

-I feel, like, a bit well-known to it.

The second time you do something

-is always a bit easier, I think, isn't it?

-Yeah.

# She said, I love you, boy, I love you so

# She said, I love you, baby Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

# She said, I love you more than words can say

# She said, I love you, bay-ay-ay-ay-baby

# So I said

# What you saying, girl? It can't be right

# How can you be in love with me?

# We only just met tonight

# So she said

# Oooh

# Boy, I loved you from the start

# When I first heard love go down

# Something started burning in my heart

# I said, stop this crazy talk

# Leave right now and close the door

# She said, I love you, boy, I love you so

# She said, I love you, baby Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

# Oh, why you got to treat me this way?

# She said. #

-Sweets...

-Yeah.

-..I love your sound.

It sounds really recordable. Your ensemble sound -

I want to hear it on record.

On the other side, I want to say, your solos

sound like you've been doing it for a few weeks

and you're just finding your feet.

They sounded a little bit nervous and a little bit like,

"I'm not sure if this is working or not."

Your ensemble sound is fabulous.

You sound like a girl band already signed and recorded.

-Wow.

-I'm going to be completely blunt with you.

The solos are not... You should give the solos to the strongest singers.

That's what kind of went wrong.

But now at least I've seen where you guys have gone wrong.

I could see you were nervous, it's good to be nervous,

but I think you've just got to embrace the fact

that you are really good singers. So now you know that,

just embrace it and go out there and do it, because you sound phenomenal.

Thank you.

Do you think the comments were fair? ALL: Yeah.

We need to work on... As a group,

we need to do more as a group, rather than, like, more solos -

because that's what they said was our strong point -

and our harmonies, so we'll go away and work on that.

You see, I think they are ready.

I think if they can take on that note,

let go of any ego attached to singing lead

and embrace the fact that if the group rises, everybody benefits...

Yes. I think they'll hear that. I think they'll be able to hear that.

-If they do, I think they've got a great sound.

-Yeah.

# She said. #

Next up, we have Encore. They're from Harrogate.

I was in two minds about these guys, but I thought,

"I want to put them through just to be sure,"

because I see some potential in them.

See what you guys think.

What are you going to think about before you do this performance?

Is there anything you're worrying about or any bits you think,

"Oh, no, that might go wrong," or is it all...?

I'm sure we're all nervous but we're just going to enjoy it

and have fun and do the best we can.

-Make the most of it.

-ALL: Yeah.

'That sounds like a very good idea.'

# Do you think of her

# When you're with me?

# Repeat the memories you made together

# Whose face do you see?

# Do you wish I was

# A bit more like her?

# Am I too loud?

# I play the clown

# To cover up all these doubts

# Perfect heart

# She's flawless

# She's the other woman

# Shining in her splendour

# You were lost

# Now she's gone

# And I'm picking up the pieces

# I watched you cry

# But you don't see that I'm the one by your side... #

-A lot of volume, haven't they, when they go for it?

-Yeah.

# In her shadow, is it me you see?

# Cos all that's left is you and I

# And I'm picking up the pieces

# She left behind. #

-What did you think?

-Yeah, they did really, really well.

I mean, we've rehearsed it over and over and over again.

I hope not too much so they're not bored of it.

But, yeah, they did quite well.

I really enjoyed your performance

and I'm challenged by it as well because it feels to me

that you are a dancing school who do some singing.

I think if you do get through to the next round,

-we've got to hear more vocals.

-OK.

Having half of you singing

and half of you dancing for the first two-thirds of the song...

it shouldn't work.

But I think you might have pulled it off,

because when you all come together for that final third,

suddenly it's like, "Whoa,

"here's the energy, here's the attitude,

"here's the attack."

I want to see more of that. ALL: OK. Thank you.

I'm not disappointed that I brought you back.

There's something about you guys.

I think if you take some of the advice and pull together

and put some emphasis on the vocal and work on that,

I think you could really be a dark horse.

ALL: Thank you.

I really enjoyed the dynamic of having the kind of singing

on the outside and the dancing in the middle at the start.

The vocals were good, but I think you need to balance

the intensity of the dancing with the singing, so that it kind of matches.

Because it was kind of... There was so much dancing that it kind of...

it distracted a tiny bit from the singing.

But when you were singing, it was great.

So push it more and make it a lot more powerful and louder.

-OK. Thank you.

-ALL: Thank you.

-Oh, they didn't squeal as they went out the door.

-Ah, yeah.

-Was I too hard?

-ALL: No.

They said a few things to you about, perhaps,

there being a bit much dancing.

What did you make of those comments? ALL: Fair enough.

We did take a risk with the dancing cos we've got a lot of it and...

I guess if you're strong dancers, you want to show that off.

But we have a lot of strong singers as well

so I definitely think we can pull that through.

-We could see so much more than we've seen.

-Yeah, they could...

They're the best dancers...

-out of anybody.

-Technically, the arabesque, beautiful ballet...

Yeah. If you put that together with the singing, if they work on that...

Their image is good, everything about them, the way they...

Yeah, they're confident.

I still like them. I like them. I'm glad...

It could be one of those that are a dark horse that you go,

-"Let's put them through and see if they take the advice."

-Exactly.

# She left behind. #

Four acts have now performed for the judges,

and with four groups still to see,

let's take a moment to remind ourselves why we're all here.

Right, next up, we have Fly Beat and they are from South East London.

Some group members, you would previously know them

-from a group called Eight Tracks.

-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah.

I saw them... Colourful. They are a colourful bunch.

A couple of them stand out more than others

but I think they are, overall, quite enjoyable.

Awesome. Very well worked.

# Ain't got no troubles in my life

# No foolish dreams to make me cry

# I'm never frightened or worried

# I know I'll always get by

-# I heat up

-# Heat up

-# I cool down

-# Cool down

# When something gets in my way I go around it

# Don't let life get me down

# I'm going to take life the way that I found it

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

-# Feel funky

-Oooh!

-# Feel good

-Oooh!

# Going to tell you I'm in the neighbourhood

# Going to fly like a bird on the wing

# Hold on to your hat, honey

# Sing, sing, sing, sing!

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music in me

# I got the music

# I got the music in me

# Yeah! #

Fly Beat, if I could bottle up how you made me feel

during that performance,

I think I would have many happy days just feeding off that bottle.

It was amazing in terms of the feeling that you guys have.

There's so much energy.

What I would say is it's a little bit sloppy dance-wise,

and a little bit sloppy with the singing.

At some point, you've got to take that energy that you've got,

this natural, raw talent and energy,

and look at how you really discipline it

so that every person is doing exactly the same thing

that they're meant to be doing at the same time.

-But just the feel, 100% brilliant.

-Thank you.

You're exuberant, you're joyful, you made me smile,

even though I didn't want to smile.

I was trying to do this.

I kept doing this.

I didn't want to but I couldn't help myself. Your opening was great.

Yes, you have to tighten up, yes,

you've got to rehearse a bit more to make sure everything is in line,

but what you have there is just a burst of energy

that is fantastic to watch.

ALL: Thank you.

Guys, you were incredible. It was amazing.

I wanted to get up there and dance with you.

When you went into the splits, I was like, "Did he actually just do that?

"That was incredible." And your dancing - I loved it.

And when you hit that high note,

I was, like, giving you all virtual high-fives. Well done, guys.

-I really enjoyed it.

-ALL: Thank you.

How are you all feeling after that? ALL: Really good.

-Speechless.

-Are you? What was it like?

When you've just got the opportunity to do that,

you just wanted to give it your all

and show them that you had the music in you.

And do you think you did that? ALL: Yeah.

It's a funny one, that one, isn't it?

Cos everything in you goes,

-"Is their singing that great?"

-ALL: No.

-"Is their dancing that great?"

-Definitely not.

-No.

"Do you really like them?" Yes!

Are they entertaining?

-Yeah.

-Yes, 100%.

-They are very entertaining.

-Would you want to see that again?

-Yes.

-Absolutely.

-It's not all about the voice.

-It's not all about the voice.

And that showed there cos that was really cool.

# Yeah! #

KIDS ALL CHEER

JUDGES: Aww!

Right, next up, it's Resonate. I first saw these guys in London

and they came all the way up from the Isle of Wight.

-How are you feeling today?

-Excited.

-Really excited.

Looking forward to this? How much rehearsal have you been doing?

ALL: Lots.

Been getting together regularly? ALL: Yeah.

Most weeks we've been getting together. A few hours a week.

They're doing a song that... well, I like,

but also I like the version they've done.

There's something about them again very Glee-esque. I liked it.

That's quite special, I like that.

# It's over and done

# But the heartache lives on

# Inside

# Yeah, yeah

# And who is the one you're singing to

# Instead of me tonight

# And where are you now?

# Now that I need you

# Tears on my pillow

# Wherever you go

# Cry me a river

# That leads to your ocean

# You'll never see me fall apart

# In the words of a broken heart

# It's just emotion taking me over

# Caught up in sorrow

# Lost in the song

# But if you don't come back

# Come back to me, darling

# Don't you know there's nobody left

# In this world to hold me tight

# Don't you know

# There's nobody left in this world to kiss good night

-# Good night

-# Good night, good night

# Good night. #

Well done, firstly. That was... The vocals were really soothing

and smooth, like I could have sat and listened to that sound all day.

Very angelic, um...

One slight criticism, I feel like there was

maybe a tiny bit too much choreography.

And it was a bit distracting from how beautiful the sound was.

But other than that, it sounded brilliant, and essentially

that's what it should be about, the vocals, so well done.

Thank you.

I absolutely loved that song and the good news is I still love it.

So I think for you guys, from what I've seen

as well, you are singers first,

and I think the choreography actually prevented you from

engaging and telling the story in that

because you're thinking of your moves.

You kind of get distracted and that's what I'd say as well.

Just focus on what you're really good at

and be minimalistic in the other areas.

You could drop all your choreography as far as I'm concerned.

I felt that that compromised

the beautiful faces that were there from time to time

and then you'd forget to do the face thing

because you're so busy thinking, "Am I stepping to the right

"or am I stepping to the left?" Drop a lot of that.

The vocals are beautiful.

The inner life is beautiful.

Those are the key elements of performance

that you as a group need to bring forth.

OK, thank you very much, thank you.

I didn't like that one, though.

LAUGHTER Let's do it.

-From that...ready?

-Am I taking it?

-What's this?

-You don't notice anything,

-you're so busy listening to singing.

-Yeah.

So, that was Fly Beat and Resonate, two very different

but equally entertaining groups, giving it their all.

Now for today's final two acts.

Will their nerves get the better of them?

I'm trying to work out why you're not more confident.

Watching you there, you look like a bunch of rehearse-aholics.

A tiny bit more energy and that would have been just perfect.

Right, next up we have Blue Note from County Durham.

# True love... #

I saw these guys and thought to myself,

slightly older, more mature sound and I really liked them.

I just felt, when they sang, they had some emotion to give,

so I hope you like them.

What do you think it's going to be like in there?

-What do you imagine the experience will be like?

-Petrifying!

-Do you think?

-It'll be really nerve-wracking.

But at the same time, just enjoy it

because it could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

# Yeah, yeah, yeah

# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

# Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah

# Ooh

# Yeah

# You and I

# Bloodline

# We come together every time

# Ooh

# Two wrongs, no rights

# We lose ourselves at night

# Ooh

# From the outside From the outside

# Everyone must be wondering why we try

# Why do we try?

# Baby, in our wildest moments

# We can be the greatest... #

That sounds lovely.

# ..Moments

# We could be the worst of all

# Baby, in our wildest moments

# Hey, babe

# We could be the greatest We could be the greatest

# Baby, in our wildest moments

# We could be the worst of all

# Yeah, in the middle of it

# We walk, we walk the line

# Looking back, I miss it

# Ooh

# Ooh, worst of all. #

-What do you think of that?

-I think they did really well.

I think some of the nerves in the beginning shone through

but they coped really well.

You guys have completely confused me because I think you're fantastic.

But I'm trying to work out why you're not more confident.

Because you all look terrified.

And you shouldn't be because you should be more confident

with that kind of talent.

I would be like, "Yee-hee, listen to me, I'm great!" So yeah,

just build on your confidence, it's all there.

I think that the attitude you should have

should be one of absolute conviction.

Not just being in the moment, but being like,

hitting it, throwing it out there with confidence

because there are different levels of conviction and intensity.

Therefore you should come into it

with the attitude, you're either going to like this or love it.

-Hm.

-I absolutely love it. You're all so individual,

so you've all got a completely different tone and style of voice

and it all comes together beautifully. You performed amazingly.

I will say I'd love to see a tiny bit more energy

cos it's really exciting to see you all with these fantastic voices

but it's almost like you're not sure of how great you are

so you're not sure individually

just how fantastic and great you sound together.

So a tiny bit more energy and that would have been perfect.

Thank you.

Was it a surprise what they said to you?

I think it was a surprise because Catherine said we needed

to up our energy and we were trying, but with such a slow song,

with simple movement, it's hard to energise it.

I just felt they were beating themselves up

halfway through the performance even.

-They were all so positive, but it still seemed like...

-I know.

You're right. We're trying to build their confidence up

and they're losing confidence as we're giving them comments.

I think that what you got there was a classic example

of people waiting for us to tell them

whether they were good or not,

rather than them standing there trying to show us how good they are.

# ..Worst of all. #

Right, next up we have Raveheart. They're from Motherwell.

I saw them in Glasgow.

Hello, girls!

'Quite frankly, as far as performance is concerned,

'I think they set the bar.'

So I'm hoping they do exactly what they did for me.

Both vocally and choreographically they function as a unit.

Tight, and it's a wall of sound.

THEY SHOUT

# Mama told me not to waste my life

# She said

# Spread your wings My little butterfly

# Don't let what they say keep you up at night

# And if they give you ssh

# Then they can walk on by

# My feet, they can't touch the ground

# And I can't hear a sound

# But you just keep on running up your mouth, yeah

# Walk, walk, walk on over there

# Cos I'm too fly to care

# Oh, yeah

# Your words don't mean a thing

# I'm not listening

# Keep talking

# All I know is

# Mama told me not to waste my life

# She said spread your wings

# My little butterfly

# Don't let what they say keep you up at night

# And they can't detain you

# These wings are made to fly

# And we'll let nobody bring us down

# No matter what they say it won't hurt me

# No matter if I fall from the sky

# These wings are made to fly

# And we'll let nobody bring us down

# No matter what they say it won't hurt me

# No matter if I fall from the sky

# These wings are made to fly. #

Watching you there, you look like a bunch of rehearse-aholics.

You absolutely were able to just perform because you knew

what you were doing, you didn't look like you were thinking about steps,

the notes, what arm to use when,

you just did it.

And as far as I'm concerned, from what I've seen there,

anybody who wants to win this

is going to have to kick and scratch and push past you.

Thank you.

Wow!

Bringing you back, it was a no-brainer.

You definitely set the bar for me.

You're a strong group, strong contenders,

there's energy, chemistry, there's everything, really.

I think, whatever we give you and whatever is thrown at you,

you will deliver and, yes, you will rehearse it to death.

Yes, yes.

There was a small timing issue,

but I put that down to you were so rehearsed

and you practised it so much and when you get there,

you just want it to be done cos you're so nervous.

So I completely understand that. Just chill out next time

cos you're so good, so, so, so good.

You don't need to worry about getting to the end.

Thank you.

-How was it?

-Amazing.

Are you all a bit teary? Oh!

So you really enjoyed it in there?

-Yeah.

-Proper good?

You guys seem really determined to do well in this competition.

-Yeah, we are.

-We're determined. We know we're well in,

we just give it 100% always and we are so dedicated

and we'd love to get the chance to go further, it'd be brilliant.

I can see it means an awful lot to you.

There are a couple of weaker performers in there,

-intensity-wise.

-I definitely agree.

It's different and they do need to decide...

This little girl at the front is just giving it large.

-And the one on the right.

-She needs to calm down a bit,

otherwise all the time my eyes are thinking

why am I being confused by this performance?

My eyes get drawn to this side, away from the ones who aren't as sharp.

So either they go towards the cooler end

or they all have to give 100% energy.

# ..These wings are made to fly. #

So, here's a quick reminder of the glee clubs

that performed for the judges on today's show.

M.A.D from London.

# ..Move all my beats so I can dance... #

Triple Threat from Falkirk.

# ..Knowing what this world's about

# And watching some good friends screaming

# Let me out... #

The Sweets from Essex.

# ..I love you so

# She said I love you, babe Oh oh oh oh... #

Encore from Harrogate.

# In the shadow is it me you seek... #

# I'll always get by... #

Fly Beat from London.

# ..I cool down

# When something gets in my way

# I go round it... #

Resonate from the Isle of Wight.

# ..Lost in the song... #

# ..Oh... #

Blue Note from County Durham.

# ..Bloodline

# We come together every time... #

And finally, Raveheart from Motherwell.

# ..These wings are made to fly. #

OK, so all today's groups have now performed,

but remember, not everyone can make it to the next round.

Let's join our experts to see who from this first judges' audition show

has made it through to the studio heats.

Fingers crossed they all agree.

-We loved these, didn't we?

-Absolutely.

-Definite?

-Yes.

-So a definite, yeah?

-Yes.

-Yeah, they were my favourites.

-Were they?

-OK, that's a definite then.

-That's good so far.

-So we need two more.

Too dancery for me.

-John, you don't agree with that, do you?

-Very different to me.

I can't even compare the two.

You can't judge the singing with the dancing. Definite no for me.

-For me, definite no.

-They're not ready.

-OK.

-It's too early.

Now, we have one more place left. On three,

let's point to the one we think should go through. One, two,

three.

Outvoted.

Democracy is overrated.

So, the five glee clubs going through to the studio heat are...

..and finally...

So, there you have it, the first five groups have made it through

to the studio heats and one step closer to the live shows.

Thanks to Carrie, David, John and all our celebrity guests.

Join us next time for more from the judges' auditions. See you then.
