0:00:02 > 0:00:03Let's mark it.
0:00:03 > 0:00:05The singers starred in a pop video.
0:00:05 > 0:00:07It was embarrassing.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09It was just a nightmare.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11The mums had to step up their game...
0:00:12 > 0:00:15And in the sixth sing-off...
0:00:15 > 0:00:16Luka.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Luka was victorious.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20I won the sing-off, and I'm really happy.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Very, very happy.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Today...
0:00:24 > 0:00:26If I could make one song not exist, it would be this one.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28..will the singers get motivated?
0:00:28 > 0:00:31Find the thing that's in the song that you dig
0:00:31 > 0:00:33and drag it out of the music.
0:00:33 > 0:00:36Who will stand out in a styling challenge?
0:00:36 > 0:00:39I don't know. I didn't think she seemed to like it.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Can Kellimarie keep her cool?
0:00:41 > 0:00:44- You seem nervous. - I can't remember it.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47I'm afraid that it could all go wrong.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50And will the mums' horsing around end badly?
0:00:51 > 0:00:52Are you OK?
0:00:52 > 0:00:54THEY LAUGH
0:00:55 > 0:00:58# So come on, tell me what's it going to be
0:00:58 > 0:01:00# I got, got, got what it takes now
0:01:00 > 0:01:02# Are you going to give me
0:01:02 > 0:01:04# Going to make you see
0:01:04 > 0:01:06# I got, got, got what it takes now
0:01:06 > 0:01:09# Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
0:01:09 > 0:01:12# I got, got, got what it takes now
0:01:12 > 0:01:15# Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
0:01:15 > 0:01:18# I got, got, got what it takes now. #
0:01:20 > 0:01:23We are back at the Music Mansion, and time's running out
0:01:23 > 0:01:25for our eight young singers.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Morning, everyone. ALL:- Morning.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30There's not long to go now, but we've got two sing-offs left
0:01:30 > 0:01:33which means you've got to take advantage
0:01:33 > 0:01:34of every opportunity you get here.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Who's ready to find out the next song you'll be learning?
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Let's go.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Each episode, only three of the group get to perform
0:01:44 > 0:01:46in an end-of-show sing-off.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49And those places can be won in a series of challenges.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53But first, our musical director David Tench
0:01:53 > 0:01:55will be teaching the whole group the song.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- So, David, a new song.- Yeah.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02This, again, is a really hard one, in my opinion.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Well, think back to all the other sing-offs, right?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- We've seen some amazing things. - Yeah, we have.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09And we've done some songs where we've both been thinking,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12- "Oh, this is too difficult." And actually, they've nailed it.- Yeah.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- So maybe they'll do the same. - Shall we get them in?- Yeah.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Hi, guys. How are you? ALL:- Good.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23- Are you excited to find out the next song you'll be learning? ALL:- Yes.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25You guys will be learning...
0:02:30 > 0:02:32..Counting Stars by OneRepublic.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Ooh, silence!
0:02:37 > 0:02:40# Dreaming about the things that we could be
0:02:40 > 0:02:42# Baby... #
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Counting Stars is a chart-topping single by OneRepublic
0:02:45 > 0:02:49that sold over a million copies in the UK.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52# Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep... #
0:02:52 > 0:02:56The music video has been viewed over 1.5 billion times on YouTube.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59And it's Luka's choice.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03I'm feeling good cos it's my song, so I'm familiar with it.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05I know the lyrics.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08And I'm assuming the rest of you aren't too excited about it.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I just really don't like it.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12If I could make one song not exist, it would be this song.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14THEY LAUGH
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- I really do hate it.- OK, guys.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- Do you want to hear Lauren sing the song?- Yeah.- I do.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23# I see this life
0:03:23 > 0:03:24# Like a swinging vine
0:03:24 > 0:03:26# Swing my heart across the line... #
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I'm not really a big fan of the song. I was when it first came out.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31But it's been quite a while now since it was popular.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35# Something so wrong by doing the... #
0:03:35 > 0:03:37It's not my type of song.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39But I do want to sing the song in the sing-off.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41# I feel something so wrong
0:03:41 > 0:03:44# By doing the right thing. #
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I don't like the words. I don't like the tune. It's just too...
0:03:47 > 0:03:49I don't like it.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53# We'll be counting stars. #
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Thank you, guys.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00So I wish you all the luck in the world with this song.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02I'll leave you with David now.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04And I'll see three of you in the sing-off.
0:04:04 > 0:04:05- Bye. ALL:- Bye.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10The song choice hasn't gone down well with the group.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13It's going to be tricky for some and easier for others.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15But it could be a perfect opportunity
0:04:15 > 0:04:17for someone to stand out.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18It's a stage in the competition now
0:04:18 > 0:04:21where we want people to take risks.
0:04:21 > 0:04:22In order to win,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25they're going to have to come out of their comfort zone.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27This song's perfect for that.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30One person who does like the song is Luka.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32You said that you wanted to perform it playing piano, right?
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Yes, please.- That's great. Come round. Let's have a listen.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40# I see this life
0:04:40 > 0:04:41# Like a flashing vine
0:04:41 > 0:04:43# Swing my heart cross the line... #
0:04:43 > 0:04:47Luka is an adventurous singer. He tries all kinds of exciting things.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50# So, no, no counting dollars
0:04:50 > 0:04:53# Cos we'll be counting stars. #
0:04:53 > 0:04:54That was great. Well done.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58I think it's a song that everyone can adapt to their own style.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Erin, do you want to give it a blast?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02I guess.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05# I see this life like a swinging vine... #
0:05:05 > 0:05:08I could see in the faces of the singers today
0:05:08 > 0:05:10that it wasn't for them.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13# We'll be counting stars. #
0:05:13 > 0:05:14Wicked.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Well, you can sing it, even if you hate it.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19# Lately I've been
0:05:19 > 0:05:21# I've been losing sleep... #
0:05:21 > 0:05:23I think there was quite a strong,
0:05:23 > 0:05:26you know, feeling that not everyone liked the song.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30# Yeah, we'll be counting stars. #
0:05:31 > 0:05:35So far, it's been a frustrating lesson for our music maestro.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38We're going to work on this song and we're going to find a way
0:05:38 > 0:05:41of doing it because we are going to do this sing-off.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44So find the thing that's in the song that you dig
0:05:44 > 0:05:47and drag it kicking and screaming out of the music.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Part of the challenge of being a pop star in the music business
0:05:50 > 0:05:53is to try and keep it fresh all the time.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Will laid-back singer Brook have a more positive approach?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59# Old, but I'm not that old
0:05:59 > 0:06:01# Young, but I'm not that bold
0:06:01 > 0:06:03# I don't think the world is sold... #
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Brook is a true performer.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09Whenever he starts singing a song, his world opens up.
0:06:12 > 0:06:1514-year-old Brook from Newcastle has
0:06:15 > 0:06:16his sights set on a career in music.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21My dream job is to be a singer-songwriter.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24But singing isn't the only thing he has a passion for.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25I'm a competitive swimmer.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I swim six times a week.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30I have a lot of swimming medals.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33And I go to competitions about twice a month.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Brook made an instant impression
0:06:34 > 0:06:36when he arrived in the Music Mansion.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40# Everybody here is watching you... #
0:06:40 > 0:06:44Brook is very exciting, I think.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48And he showed off his unique style in the very first sing-off.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50# It made us restless
0:06:50 > 0:06:54# When we were young. #
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Thank you, Brook. You did amazingly. Well done.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03But since then, despite stepping up to every challenge...
0:07:03 > 0:07:06# All the planes we flew Good things we've been through. #
0:07:06 > 0:07:09I was so impressed with Brook for taking on that rap.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13..he is yet to win a sing-off.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16I'd like to win the sing-off because it would be amazing.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19And the opportunities that you would get at the end
0:07:19 > 0:07:21would be unreal as well.
0:07:23 > 0:07:28# No more counting dollars We'll be counting stars. #
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Yeah. Killer!
0:07:31 > 0:07:33This is one of the songs that I really like,
0:07:33 > 0:07:35and I think it suits my voice a lot.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- Well done, man. You spit it out. - Thank you.- Sounded ace!
0:07:39 > 0:07:40I think, if people want to win,
0:07:40 > 0:07:44they're going to have to really focus on
0:07:44 > 0:07:45getting stuck into this song
0:07:45 > 0:07:47even if it's not something they love.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50# I got, got, got what it takes now. #
0:07:53 > 0:07:54Writing your own songs
0:07:54 > 0:07:57can really make you stand out as an artist in the music industry.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59So how do the pros go about it?
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Hi, I'm Becky Hill, and you're watching Got What It Takes.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05My inspiration for songwriting
0:08:05 > 0:08:07comes from everything really.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Everything in my life, you know.
0:08:09 > 0:08:10From smells.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12From meeting new people.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14From visiting different places.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15My songwriting inspiration comes
0:08:15 > 0:08:17a lot from probably my grandfather.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Either your life,
0:08:19 > 0:08:21or the things that you love.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23You never know when it's going to strike, do you?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Each episode, the singers go head-to-head
0:08:28 > 0:08:30in a music industry challenge
0:08:30 > 0:08:32to win two spots in the end-of-show sing-off.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Guys, we've got a message from Lauren.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40Hey, guys. A big part of the music industry is image.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Having a unique look can definitely help you stand out from the crowd.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46But it shouldn't be all about dressing to impress.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49It needs to be something that you are comfortable with.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51So today's challenge is all about styling.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53I'm actually really excited for this one.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57I can't wait to see what type of clothes they have for us.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01Judging today's challenge is someone who knows all about looking cool.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Ayishat Akanbi is a top music industry stylist
0:09:04 > 0:09:07and has worked with the likes of Wretch 32,
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Craig David and Labrinth.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12# It's hard for me to say
0:09:12 > 0:09:17# I'm jealous of the way you're happy without me. #
0:09:17 > 0:09:21My name is Ayishat Akanbi. I'm a fashion stylist.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26Styling is a really important part of being a pop star.
0:09:26 > 0:09:31- Does everyone have style? - I think that everyone has style.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34I don't think that everyone knows how to find that style.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36What top tips can you give us about styling?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39I have to say, confidence is number one. Don't be afraid to be daring.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Daring is what's going to set you apart from other people
0:09:42 > 0:09:45in your music business and it's just fun.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48In today's challenge,
0:09:48 > 0:09:51the singers will be trying to create a striking new look.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53And they have a treasure trove of clothes
0:09:53 > 0:09:55and accessories to work with.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58That's actually really nice as well. It's got a leather jacket.
0:09:58 > 0:09:59That is lush.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03But they won't have long to put together their outfits.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Then they will have to strut their stuff on the catwalk
0:10:05 > 0:10:07in front of the mums.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10In this challenge, the singers are working in pairs.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12They'll be judged on...
0:10:12 > 0:10:14the strength of their look...
0:10:15 > 0:10:17You look like me going fishing.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19..how unified it is...
0:10:20 > 0:10:21Also, we have to complement each other,
0:10:21 > 0:10:24so it doesn't mean we have to look exactly the same.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26..and how well it shows their individual personality.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Cool guy versus geek, yeah.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Luca's with Brook. Kyra is with Ellie.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Evan is with Jorja.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- We need gold. We need gold jewellery.- Accessories.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39And Kellimarie is with Erin.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40Like my training outfit.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42I don't HAVE an outfit.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Is there anything here that you want to put on?
0:10:45 > 0:10:48And it's not long before the pairs start to feel the pressure.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Just wear some tights?- Nah.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I think some of them are seeing how difficult it is.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56I'm having a last-minute panic.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58This is hard.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01You know, it's not as easy as I think they'd first imagined.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Honestly don't know.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06The group are learning that styling is tougher than it looks.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09But even the pros don't always get it right.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11I've had some disasters in my time.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14I decided to put some metal things and some plaits,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16and for the entire shoot, they poked me in the eye
0:11:16 > 0:11:18and I had nearly a black eye from it.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20This man has sunglasses on indoors,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22so, obviously, his look...
0:11:22 > 0:11:23My look's very important.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25I cannot be seen without shades on.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Some guy turned up to style us once
0:11:27 > 0:11:29in Marilyn Manson shorts.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31That was bad. That was bad.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35At the Mansion, time's up for the teams.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Erin finally chose an outfit.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39See, we are kind of different,
0:11:39 > 0:11:41the only thing that we've got matching is pink.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44And while some are feeling confident in their choices...
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Our theme is vintage army.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49..others are not feeling so certain.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51We're having some last-minute changes,
0:11:51 > 0:11:53we're thinking Kyra is going to put that on
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- instead of that. - Right now, I'm very plain.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58White's a bit plain so we're getting changed now. See you later, bye.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03It's time for the pairs to hit the runway
0:12:03 > 0:12:06in front of the mums and styling supremo Ayishat.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Right, so we are just going in, getting ready,
0:12:09 > 0:12:11- it's going to be wicked, isn't it? - Yeah.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14First up, it's Brook and Luka...
0:12:16 > 0:12:18..who have gone for a cool versus geek theme.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Can you tell me a little bit about your looks?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31It's kind of got a story behind it. And that's what we liked about it.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36One of us would be a cool person and one of us would be a geek.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- I think you boys have done really well.- Thank you.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42So we just came out,
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- and I think it went really, really well.- Yeah, cool.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Next up, it's Kyra and Ellie
0:12:47 > 0:12:49with an urban retro vibe.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06I chose this top so that it could correspond with her designs.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08And I also chose this white top
0:13:08 > 0:13:10so I could match the pinkie pop off her jacket.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12We found it hard at first so we had to work hard at it
0:13:12 > 0:13:15to find something that really pulled us together.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17You've done a really good job pulling it together. Thank you.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Thank you.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- I think Ayishat liked it.- Mm.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- It kind of got quite a good vibe, didn't it?- Yeah.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Next onto the catwalk, it's Evan and Jorja...
0:13:31 > 0:13:34..who have put together a distressed military look.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Well, this looks really, really cool.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46It was really, it was really fun because we both really like clothes
0:13:46 > 0:13:49so we kind of have, like, not a similar style,
0:13:49 > 0:13:50but we both know what we like.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53We sort of had a lot of denim. And a lot of khaki.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55And a lot of white.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58So then we sort of mixed it together and created like an Army theme
0:13:58 > 0:14:00hence the salute at the end.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01Yeah, no, I enjoyed that.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I don't know. I didn't think she seemed to like it.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09I thought she kind of liked it. But I don't know.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13And finally, it's Erin and Kellimarie
0:14:13 > 0:14:15with a rock-chick take on girlie pink.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Fantastic, girls.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32At first we chose the pink,
0:14:32 > 0:14:36but then we decided we didn't want to go with classical girlie pink
0:14:36 > 0:14:38so we changed it and added a bit of a rock theme to it.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Makes sense. OK, girls, see you soon.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46I think Ayishat enjoyed our performance.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49And I think we did well with the matching outfit thing.
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Catwalk over, Ayishat now has to decide on a winning pair.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01I thought the guys did so well. Brook and Luka,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03they reminded me of, like, a young Beastie Boys.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- I think it's anyone's game.- Yeah.
0:15:06 > 0:15:13- Ellie and Kyra, they looked so cool. - Retro urban.- Yeah, like, cool.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18Evan and Jorja, they were really confident.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20It was actually more chilled than I thought.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Erin and Kellimarie,
0:15:22 > 0:15:26I think they've displayed teamwork probably the best.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28You always look so cool.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Didn't expect it to be this hard.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37It's been tough, but Ayishat has made her choice.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39I have my winning pair.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42And these guys had a strong look...
0:15:44 > 0:15:47..well coordinated and the personalities came through.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50For that reason...
0:15:54 > 0:15:55..Jorja and Evan.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Thank you.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02I'm just really happy and really excited
0:16:02 > 0:16:03that I've won this challenge,
0:16:03 > 0:16:05and excited to be in my fourth sing-off.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07These guys just really impressed me.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08They handled it like professionals.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Obviously, I'm a bit gutted because we didn't win.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Oh, I don't know, I just feel a bit upset
0:16:15 > 0:16:16that I haven't won one yet.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19# I got, got, got what it takes now. #
0:16:22 > 0:16:25So Evan and Jorja have taken the first two places in the sing-off.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27It's been a busy day,
0:16:27 > 0:16:30but that doesn't stop our eight trying to film their own TV show.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- ALL:- Hi, guys, welcome to the Got What It Takes Show.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- That's not on right.- Yeah.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- ALL:- Hi, guys. Welcome to the Got What It Takes...
0:16:43 > 0:16:46INSECT BUZZES, THEY SCREAM
0:16:46 > 0:16:49In today's episode, we are going to do... Ha!
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Start again. Kellimarie, coming to you...
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Oh!
0:16:53 > 0:16:55On today's episode,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57we are going to be doing impert...interpretations...
0:16:57 > 0:16:59THEY PROTEST
0:17:04 > 0:17:07It's another day in the Music Mansion.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09And the pressure is back on the mums.
0:17:09 > 0:17:10The music business is one of
0:17:10 > 0:17:13the most competitive industries there is.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15To survive, you are constantly jostling for position,
0:17:15 > 0:17:17overcoming tricky obstacles
0:17:17 > 0:17:20and striving to become the leader of the pack.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22To be honest, it's a bit like a race.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Are you ready for your next challenge, Mums?
0:17:24 > 0:17:25This one's called Disc Jockeys.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30HORSE NEIGHS
0:17:30 > 0:17:33It's another dressing-up one, isn't it?
0:17:33 > 0:17:36- Oh, my God.- At least I'm the right height to be a jockey.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39THEY LAUGH
0:17:39 > 0:17:41In this challenge, the mums will be galloping for glory
0:17:41 > 0:17:43in a disc jockey derby.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48The aim is to race around the track as quickly as possible.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52But there are some tricky obstacles to overcome.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54And to complete the course,
0:17:54 > 0:17:56each mum must collect six records along the way.
0:17:58 > 0:17:59There are two heats,
0:17:59 > 0:18:02and the winner of each will go nose-to-nose in the final race.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05And horse wrangler for the day is choreographer
0:18:05 > 0:18:08and celebrity fitness trainer Kevin Adams.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I'm usually tough on the mums on challenge day,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12but today I may tolerate a little horsing around.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Giddy up, Kev.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19- Oh, no! Oh, no!- Oh!
0:18:21 > 0:18:25The mums are chomping at the bit to get this one started.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29But Debbie's down before she even makes it to the course.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34But she's soon back up and race ready.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45- OK. Valerie, Luka's song this week, pressure's really on.- It is, yes.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47How do you think you're going to do?
0:18:47 > 0:18:50I think Tiffin's going to do really well. He's up for it.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Debbie, what are your tactics today?
0:18:52 > 0:18:55As long as Silver here can go round fast enough
0:18:55 > 0:18:59without stopping to have a bite to eat, I'll be all right.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02It's time to get out of the paddock and to the start line.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03First to race,
0:19:03 > 0:19:08it's Ellie's mum Lou, Kyra's mum Margaret and Luka's mum Valerie.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10OK, Mums, no horsing around.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Three, two, one!
0:19:12 > 0:19:13- WHISTLE BLOWS - Let's go.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15And they're in the water.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17And they're out of the water.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19They've got their discs. They're over the first jump.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23They've got their second disc. And they're trotting through the tyres.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Add this will be the first person to the haystack.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27They're over the haystack.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29They're into the mud.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Yes!
0:19:31 > 0:19:32Get messy in the mud.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35And she's out.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37She's off and she's in the balloons.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41And now Margaret is out too. Can she catch her?
0:19:42 > 0:19:45That's it. Oh, it's a dead heat! They're going through.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Valerie has stormed to victory.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Look, my mum's still in the mud!
0:19:51 > 0:19:54While Lou is still looking for that elusive record.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Oh, for goodness' sake!
0:19:56 > 0:19:58But in their haste,
0:19:58 > 0:20:01both Valerie and Margaret haven't got all their records.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04OK, Val, you had to abide by the rules,
0:20:04 > 0:20:07and that is collecting a record at each of the obstacles.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10You didn't do that. Margaret, you didn't do that.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- You are the winner, Lou. - Really?- Yes.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17So Lou has scored a surprise win and earned herself a spot in the final.
0:20:17 > 0:20:18I'm so excited.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I've just got to see who I'm going to face in the final now.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Meaning Luka won't be in the sing-off with his song.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28I was just racing through trying to finish, forgot to pick up the disc.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30A bit obviously disappointed for Luka.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Next to race is Brook's mum, Sharon, Erin's mum, Julia,
0:20:34 > 0:20:36and Kellimarie's mum, Debbie.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38Three, two, one.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39WHISTLE BLOWS
0:20:39 > 0:20:41And they're off.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43They're over and in and out of the water.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45They've got the discs.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49Julia's over. She's our first. Sharon is a close second.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54They've got their disc. She's over the haystack. Julia's in the lead.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56She's in there.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58But Debbie is still in with a chance.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02Get in there. Get in the mud. Yes!
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Straight in. Debbie's got the record. She's in, she's out.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06She could take this one.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08She's in a bunch of balloons.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Can Julia catch her?
0:21:10 > 0:21:13No! Debbie's the winner!
0:21:13 > 0:21:17Debbie and Silver have done it. Julia's lost in the balloons.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18I feel fantastic.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Silver didn't let me down and he made it to the finish line.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Absolutely fabulous. Great horse.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26One spot left in the sing-off.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Your child is depending on you.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32- Are you ready to get started? - Yes.- Yes.- OK. Positions.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36It's the final race. Two mums, but there can only be one winner.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Three, two, one.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40WHISTLE BLOWS
0:21:40 > 0:21:43They're off. First obstacle.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Remember to collect your record.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48It's not always the fastest person.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53OK. They're going through the tyres.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Over the haystack.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Lou's over the haystack first.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Closely followed by Debbie.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03She's in. They're both in. Yes!
0:22:03 > 0:22:04Come on, Mum!
0:22:04 > 0:22:07They're rummaging. They're rummaging.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10She's found it. Debbie's out first.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11She's in.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Lou's got hers.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16She's going to catch up!
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Whoa! This is too exciting!
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Oh, she's out!
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Debbie's galloped to victory...
0:22:30 > 0:22:33..and done it for Kellimarie.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39I won it for you, babe. I done it!
0:22:41 > 0:22:45All through the whole series I felt like I was letting Kellimarie down
0:22:45 > 0:22:48by not getting in that sing-off place for her.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51I'm very proud of my mum, as you can tell by my reaction.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54I wasn't expecting it, but, you know, it happened.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57What an absolute rollercoaster for a challenge that was.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00And the one person that won the challenge was the one person
0:23:00 > 0:23:03that thought they would never win a challenge. Love this show!
0:23:03 > 0:23:06# I got, got, got what it takes now. #
0:23:08 > 0:23:12So it's Kellimarie who will be joining Evan and Jorja
0:23:12 > 0:23:14in the seventh end of show sing-off.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18They will each be performing their own version of
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Counting Stars by OneRepublic.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Helping the singers put their own twist on it is the job of
0:23:24 > 0:23:26musical director David Tench.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- So, Jorja, your fifth time in the sing-off.- Yeah.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33What are your thoughts on Counting Stars - OneRepublic?
0:23:33 > 0:23:35I don't really like the song.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Well, we've got this time now to try it different ways.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Just be free.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Like, just open your wings. You might be inspired.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47# I see this life like a swinging vine
0:23:47 > 0:23:49# Swing my heart across the line... #
0:23:49 > 0:23:51This isn't Jorja's kind of song,
0:23:51 > 0:23:54but she sings it beautifully.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58# And we'll be counting stars. #
0:24:01 > 0:24:03I mean, you sound mega on this, Jorja,
0:24:03 > 0:24:05I mean, it's really impressive.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10I've feeling a lot more confident now, gave a good performance.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13- OK, what do you want to do? - I want to do a fun,
0:24:13 > 0:24:18more upbeat style, like we done in practice cos I really enjoyed it.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19- Can you do drum?- Yes.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21So I'm thinking...
0:24:21 > 0:24:23# Take that money Watch it burn
0:24:23 > 0:24:25# Sink in the river... #
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Evan has gone for fun in the song, he's brought out all the excitement
0:24:28 > 0:24:31and the rhythmic energy, and that's fantastic.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34# Sink in the river The lessons I've learned. #
0:24:34 > 0:24:37That was a bit screechy, but, yeah, I got it.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38What you've done is you've taken the tune
0:24:38 > 0:24:42and turned it into a really upbeat, exciting dance record.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45OK, so do you want to show me what you've got?
0:24:45 > 0:24:49# Lately, I've been... #
0:24:49 > 0:24:52No. I can't remember it.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55You seem nervous. Are you nervous?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Well, no, but I wasn't, but now I've forgot the words.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Quite stressed about the song
0:25:00 > 0:25:03because I kept on forgetting the lyrics while I was in there.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07# I could lie, I could lie, I could lie
0:25:07 > 0:25:08# Every... #
0:25:08 > 0:25:09No.
0:25:13 > 0:25:1713-year-old Kellimarie is a young singer with big ambitions.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21The dream job is definitely being a singer and songwriter,
0:25:21 > 0:25:26basically singing on stage with tons of people coming to watch me.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30She lives in Coventry with her four brothers, her dad and mum Debbie
0:25:30 > 0:25:32and her dog Fluffy.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34- BOTH:- # Got what it takes now! #
0:25:35 > 0:25:38In the fourth sing-off, Kellimarie took a gamble,
0:25:38 > 0:25:41mixing rap and folk in her performance.
0:25:41 > 0:25:42# Had to switch up
0:25:42 > 0:25:44# Look at things different See a bigger picture
0:25:44 > 0:25:45# Those were the days... #
0:25:45 > 0:25:49It was marvellous. I felt that I was going to cry.
0:25:49 > 0:25:50CHEERING
0:25:50 > 0:25:53And the decision paid off.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55And the winner is...
0:25:55 > 0:25:56Kellimarie!
0:25:56 > 0:25:58CHEERING
0:25:58 > 0:26:00- SHE MIMES:- # Got this feeling
0:26:00 > 0:26:01# Inside my bones... #
0:26:01 > 0:26:05So far, she's been one of the most relaxed singers in the competition.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09She's grown and improved so much through this competition.
0:26:09 > 0:26:10CHEERING
0:26:10 > 0:26:13But with a chance to take the lead within reach,
0:26:13 > 0:26:15nerves are finally getting to her.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18# Take that money Watch it burn... #
0:26:18 > 0:26:19Ohhh...
0:26:19 > 0:26:25You've got to go and breathe deeply in a room somewhere, calm down.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Her body language, everything about her says she's not ready.
0:26:28 > 0:26:33So I'm afraid that it could all go wrong.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37Rehearsals over, it's time for the crucial seventh sing-off.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40I'm so excited to be back in the Music Mansion today,
0:26:40 > 0:26:43because the sing-off is going to be a real game changer.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Each sing-off, the mums are the judges,
0:26:47 > 0:26:50who vote to decide which performer is the winner.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53The singer with the most wins after eight episodes
0:26:53 > 0:26:55will go straight through
0:26:55 > 0:26:57to the grand final in show ten,
