0:04:31 > 0:04:34So I initially started out as a drummer,

0:20:38 > 0:20:39It was indeed.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I probably wouldn't have had the self-confidence to do it at
0:20:41 > 0:20:43the time, but she put me forward,

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Judges, please enter your scores.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Dannii, what do you think of Deon?
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Beautiful, natural voice in there.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43It seems like it's very new to you, performing on stage,
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- because that was not there at all. - Mm-hm.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49You've just got to learn some of the tricks and things
0:22:49 > 0:22:51to anchor that performance.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54And when you get some of those under your belt, and some that are natural
0:22:54 > 0:22:59to you, man, you are going to feel in a different planet.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01All right. Gary, what did you think?
0:23:01 > 0:23:03You're a really good singer.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06The confidence thing, of course, it's going to be an issue tonight.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09You know, someone has nominated you to be here.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12So I understand it's a huge step for you.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16And for me, at this point in the competition, it's about seeing the
0:23:16 > 0:23:19talent within somebody and thinking, can we take it a little bit further?
0:23:19 > 0:23:23And I'm really hoping the judges have voted with that in mind.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:23:26 > 0:23:29The judges don't know the total number of stars

0:23:33 > 0:23:37This is the 15th star, this is the one that has to light up
0:23:37 > 0:23:39- if you're going through to the next stage.- Yes.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- All right, you ready for this? - Yep.- OK.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Come on!
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Oh!
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Ah, well. Thank you. It's all right. Thank you.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11HE MOUTHS
0:24:11 > 0:24:1313, am I right? Just short.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Amber, just three from you, but you've got to admire this guy's
0:24:16 > 0:24:19courage, to come out and suddenly be thrust into this arena.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- That is a thing.- Oh, absolutely.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25It definitely is, so good on you for that, because that's a big deal.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27But you know, I had to vote based on what it was that I saw,
0:24:27 > 0:24:30and I saw potential, but I think
0:24:30 > 0:24:32you will probably need a lot of work for eight shows a week...
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- Yeah.- ..on a theatrical stage. - That's fair enough. Yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Martin, that was a lovely vocal. Was that not enough for you?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40It was a lovely vocal, it really was.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42It was just a little bit pitchy here and there.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43And you've got stuff to work on.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46You know, what I think would be really good for you
0:24:46 > 0:24:48is to go to see drama coach as well.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Bring the confidence out in yourself, you know?
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Open yourself up.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54I think you can overcome that and your shyness,
0:24:54 > 0:24:56and get a much better performance.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Go and see a drama coach as well as a voice coach.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02Gary, any final words of encouragement?
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Please, please, go away.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07Take this experience, learn from it.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10- But please, please, keep singing. - Will do, thank you.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:13 > 0:25:15What would you like to say to the judges?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I'd just like to thank you all for your comments,
0:25:17 > 0:25:19and I'll definitely go off and work on them,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21- and hopefully come back sometime. - All right.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25- Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Deon.- Thank you.- Sorry.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27There you go, down that way.
0:25:27 > 0:25:31So, Deon's not quite right for a part in the stage show.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34But the lucky five boys who do end up treading the boards in this new
0:25:34 > 0:25:38touring musical will be following in the footsteps of some great

0:25:57 > 0:25:59# I pledge allegiance to the band... #
0:25:59 > 0:26:03Eight shows a week is really hard work.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07And some young kids that are going through today,
0:26:07 > 0:26:09there's a lot of hard work in it.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14I love the musical Wicked.

0:26:17 > 0:26:22So many beautiful moments, characters on stage, performances.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42Well done.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46Now, I feel like you should now get a car or something...
0:32:46 > 0:32:49- LAUGHTER - ..but there's no extra prize.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51You just get through to the next stage of the competition.
0:32:51 > 0:32:52That's good.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55Final word to the man who wrote the songs, Gary?
0:32:55 > 0:32:58What you did tonight was absolutely outstanding.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00- Well done to you.- Thank you.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04We'll see you in the next stage of the competition.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06It's Matt, everybody.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Well done. There you go.

0:33:29 > 0:33:33So a maximum for Matt, and while the mood's up in studio,
0:33:33 > 0:33:35prepare for another 20-star performance.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39# Is this the way to Amarillo?
0:33:39 > 0:33:43# Every night I've been hugging my pillow
0:33:43 > 0:33:47# Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
0:33:47 > 0:33:50# And sweet Marie who waits for me
0:33:51 > 0:33:54# Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, hey

0:34:03 > 0:34:07CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:34:07 > 0:34:08I'm absolutely exhausted.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14Word of advice, loves,
0:34:14 > 0:34:17don't try that dance manoeuvre in these trousers.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21- LAUGHTER - I love her!
0:34:21 > 0:34:23Nice.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26The touring musical our winning boys will star in features
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Take That's music, but it doesn't tell the story of the band,
0:34:29 > 0:34:32so we're not searching for lookalikes.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Our next auditionee, however, does seem rather familiar.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44CHEERING
0:34:53 > 0:34:56Good grief, you look like a friend of mine.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58LAUGHTER, CHEERING
0:34:58 > 0:35:00What's your name, please, sir?
0:35:00 > 0:35:02I'm Dan Budd.
0:35:02 > 0:35:06I'm scared to ask what you do for a living.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08I am a Robbie Williams tribute act.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:35:14 > 0:35:17He will be made up you're wearing those shoes.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20He loves those shoes.
0:35:20 > 0:35:25- Listen, we're dying to see what you can do. Good luck.- Thank you.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36MUSIC: No Regrets
0:35:43 > 0:35:46# Tell me a story... #
0:35:46 > 0:35:47He sounds like him, as well.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50# Where we all change
0:35:52 > 0:35:56- # And we live our lives together and... #- Whoa!
0:35:57 > 0:36:00# Not estranged
0:36:02 > 0:36:08# I didn't lose my mind It was mine to give away
0:36:11 > 0:36:16# Couldn't stay to watch me cry You didn't have the time
0:36:16 > 0:36:21# So I softly slip away
0:36:23 > 0:36:25# No regrets
0:36:28 > 0:36:30# They don't work
0:36:32 > 0:36:35# No regrets, now
0:36:37 > 0:36:39# They only hurt
0:36:42 > 0:36:44# Sing me a love song
0:36:47 > 0:36:49# Drop me a line
0:36:51 > 0:36:56# Suppose it's just a point of view
0:36:56 > 0:37:00# But they tell me I'm doing fine
0:37:00 > 0:37:05# Remember the photographs Insane
0:37:05 > 0:37:10# The ones where we all laugh So lame
0:37:10 > 0:37:13# We were having the time of our lives
0:37:13 > 0:37:22# Well, thank you It was a real blast. #
0:37:22 > 0:37:25CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:37:27 > 0:37:29Give it up for Dan, everybody!
0:37:32 > 0:37:38- Well done, sir.- Thank you. - Judges, please put your scores in.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40Gary, that must have been a strange experience.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43You are an amazing impersonator.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45- Yeah.- I mean, you really...
0:37:46 > 0:37:50It's unbelievable how much you sound and look like Rob.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52- I mean, it really is.- Thank you.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55We're trying to create this musical featuring the music.
0:37:55 > 0:37:59At no point do I want band members to be named.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01I want to take that out of it and have their music celebrated
0:38:01 > 0:38:03to an entirely new story.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07So by having someone who basically sounds and looks absolutely
0:38:07 > 0:38:10identically to Robbie is kind of going against everything
0:38:10 > 0:38:14that I'm trying to do, and it's whether we can de-Robbie you...
0:38:14 > 0:38:16- Yeah.- ..is the point.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18But you're talented. There's no question about it.
0:38:18 > 0:38:22- You have a very good voice. - Thank you.- Dannii, how do you feel?
0:38:22 > 0:38:26Your energy, your showmanship, there's nothing that I can fault.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30But did I see you?
0:38:30 > 0:38:34I'm thinking you couldn't not put this guy through,
0:38:34 > 0:38:39cos the vocals are insanely good, insanely strong.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42They would hold up for eight shows a week and more.
0:38:42 > 0:38:46CHEERING
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Amber, you're probably less familiar with Robbie Williams,
0:38:49 > 0:38:52- so what did you make of the performance?- I was completely
0:38:52 > 0:38:56- enamoured by your performance. You are freaking incredible.- Thank you.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- Your voice is incredible. - Thank you very much.
0:38:59 > 0:39:04Whether or not you sound just like him, you know,
0:39:04 > 0:39:08that really doesn't matter to me. I loved what you did today.
0:39:08 > 0:39:13Dan, do you think you can unlearn the habits?
0:39:13 > 0:39:14- Yeah!- Yeah?
0:39:14 > 0:39:18- Right answer.- Yes! - All right, this is it.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21We're going to find out if you're going through to the next stage
0:39:21 > 0:39:25of the competition. Ready for this? You are. Here we go.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Let's find out how Dan has been scored.
0:39:27 > 0:39:29- AUDIENCE MEMBER:- Go on, Dan!
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Come on, come on...
0:39:44 > 0:39:45Go on!
0:39:47 > 0:39:49Oh!
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Oh!
0:39:51 > 0:39:53CHEERING
0:39:54 > 0:39:56HE MOUTHS
0:39:56 > 0:39:59That's fantastic, congratulations, Dan.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Now, I'm trying to read Gary's expression.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06Well, let me just say, Dan, I got my scoring wrong.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07I got my scoring wrong.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09I've had more time to think about it,
0:40:09 > 0:40:11and I should have given you a five. I should.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:40:13 > 0:40:14Wow.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23- That's a nice thing to hear. - Thank you so much.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27I'm going to show you there's more to me than just Rob.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Dan Budd.
0:40:29 > 0:40:30CHEERING
0:40:30 > 0:40:32HE MOUTHS
0:40:35 > 0:40:41- My doubt is that it feels to me like it's so ingrained in him...- Yeah.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44- Yeah.- It's an interesting problem, to see if you can get rid of it.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47- Yep.- Because if you can, and you can pull out his own voice,
0:40:47 > 0:40:50it's going to be great.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Are you going to be going for the whole, kind of, Robbie thing
0:40:52 > 0:40:55- next time?- No, no. They don't want Robbie.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58It's not that show. They want me for me.
0:40:58 > 0:41:01Are you going to change the hair, though, seriously, for next time?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03- Who knows?- Who knows? I'll keep everyone guessing.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07- Keep the options very, very open.- Yes.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10Talking of keeping things open,
0:41:10 > 0:41:1418-year-old student Elijah Holloway has gone textbook boyband.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17- Exposed armpits? Check. - Explain the vest.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21- Very boyband, I've got to say. - It's not boyband. It's for movement.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23I'm doing a very energetic performance,
0:41:23 > 0:41:26- so I just want to be comfortable. - It's tactical, mate.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28They said wear what you'd wear. This is genuinely what I'd wear.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Yep. In the bedroom.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33CHEERING
0:41:44 > 0:41:46- Hi, what's your name? - My name's Elijah Holloway.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49- I'm 18 and I'm from Letchworth Garden City.- OK.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52CHEERING
0:41:52 > 0:41:53And what do you do?
0:41:53 > 0:41:56At the moment I'm working in a department store,
0:41:56 > 0:42:00so I'm actually mostly selling perfume to quite rich customers.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02But it's quite fun cos I've got quite a good technique.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05My technique is to convince the customer they have to buy this
0:42:05 > 0:42:07product, so without this product, if they go away,
0:42:07 > 0:42:10- they're empty-handed.- OK... - They have to buy this perfume.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12- ..what are you selling today? - I'd say Amber, you're looking
0:42:12 > 0:42:14for a spicy, rich fragrance.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Gary, you're looking for something floral, light. Like yourself.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19LAUGHTER, CHEERING
0:42:19 > 0:42:24I'd say, Dannii, you're definitely looking for something elegant,
0:42:24 > 0:42:26quite sophisticated.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Martin, I'd say you're looking for something quite wooden.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31- AUDIENCE:- Oh!
0:42:31 > 0:42:35And by wooden, I mean mature and elegant.
0:42:35 > 0:42:37I know I was in EastEnders for a while,
0:42:37 > 0:42:39but that's below the belt, I thought.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43Well, this is your moment to leave the perfume department.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46- Let's do it.- Yeah, do it.- Excellent.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Why, this car could be automatic...
0:42:56 > 0:42:58CHEERING
0:42:58 > 0:43:00It's systematic...
0:43:00 > 0:43:02CHEERING
0:43:02 > 0:43:05It's hydromatic...
0:43:07 > 0:43:09# Why, it's greased lightning
0:43:10 > 0:43:13# We'll get some overhead lifters and some four barrel quads, oh, yeah
0:43:16 > 0:43:20# A fuel injection cut-off and chrome-plated rods, oh, yeah
0:43:22 > 0:43:25# With a four-speed on the floor they'll be waiting at the door
0:43:25 > 0:43:28# You know that it's for real We'll be getting lots of feel
0:43:28 > 0:43:30# With greased lightning
0:43:31 > 0:43:34# Go, greased lightning You're burning up the quarter mile
0:43:37 > 0:43:39# Go, greased lightning
0:43:39 > 0:43:41# You're coasting through the heat lap trials
0:43:43 > 0:43:45# You are supreme The chicks'll scream
0:43:45 > 0:43:48# For greased lightning... #
0:44:02 > 0:44:04Everybody clap!

0:44:39 > 0:44:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:44:43 > 0:44:45Let's hear it for Elijah, everybody!
0:44:47 > 0:44:49Congratulations, sir, well done.
0:44:49 > 0:44:52Judges, if you want to enter your number of stars, now would be
0:44:52 > 0:44:57- the time to do it. I have to say, you smell very good.- Thank you.
0:44:57 > 0:45:00Gary, I'll go to you. What do you make of Elijah?
0:45:00 > 0:45:03Er, Elijah, the chat is so much better than the singing,
0:45:03 > 0:45:05- let me just tell you that. - AUDIENCE:- Ooh!
0:45:05 > 0:45:09A very entertaining song, but even the moves weren't that great.
0:45:09 > 0:45:11Not that I know that much about moves...
0:45:11 > 0:45:13- LAUGHTER - ..but I know enough.
0:45:14 > 0:45:18- Amber?- I feel like you have potential,
0:45:18 > 0:45:22and you know what kind of won me over, actually?
0:45:22 > 0:45:25The very last note that you hit and you held showed me that there's
0:45:25 > 0:45:28a lot more inside there than you probably know.
0:45:28 > 0:45:31One of the things that I feel like I'm looking for is someone
0:45:31 > 0:45:35whose personality can fill the room as well as their voice.
0:45:35 > 0:45:39- So I enjoyed it.- Thank you.
0:45:39 > 0:45:40Mixed comments there.
0:45:42 > 0:45:45You ready? Let's find out how Elijah has been scored.
0:46:01 > 0:46:03Ooh!
0:46:05 > 0:46:0911, Elijah. I'm sorry.
0:46:10 > 0:46:13- Gary, seriously?- Do you know what?
0:46:13 > 0:46:16- One?!- Can I just say, Elijah,
0:46:16 > 0:46:19when you see the last five people we have in this competition,
0:46:19 > 0:46:23they're people who will have put their whole life into this.
0:46:23 > 0:46:26I feel like you're just about to start on that treadmill.
0:46:26 > 0:46:27How are you feeling now?
0:46:27 > 0:46:30Do you feel encouraged by their words in the end?
0:46:30 > 0:46:33Yeah. Maybe some more singing experience is required.
0:46:33 > 0:46:36I think there definitely is a lot more to my voice,
0:46:36 > 0:46:38and maybe nerves got the better of me.
0:46:38 > 0:46:41Yes, to come out here and entertain a crowd is not an easy thing to do.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43I'm sorry we're not going to see you...
0:46:43 > 0:46:45Well, not in the rest of this competition.
0:46:45 > 0:46:46We'll see you again, obviously.
0:46:46 > 0:46:49- You're not killed when you walk offstage.- No.
0:46:49 > 0:46:53- I don't know what happens backstage. - It's not that harsh.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57Ladies and gentlemen, please give a huge round of applause to Elijah.
0:46:57 > 0:46:58CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:47:03 > 0:47:06Wow, Gary. One?
0:47:09 > 0:47:11Is like another art, doing an audition.
0:47:13 > 0:47:17To try and present yourself within one minute 30 on a stage,
0:47:17 > 0:47:19in front of an audience, takes a lot of courage.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21- Hiya.- How are you doing?
0:47:21 > 0:47:23I'm doing much better now.
0:47:23 > 0:47:26The audition arena is one of the hardest places to be in
0:47:26 > 0:47:28for any actor, performer, musician.
0:47:31 > 0:47:36I've had to go through the audition process as well. It is frightening.
0:47:38 > 0:47:40You can tell as soon as someone walks in the room,
0:47:40 > 0:47:44- the confidence level.- You look great, by the way.- So do you.
0:47:44 > 0:47:45LAUGHTER
0:47:45 > 0:47:49This is going to go extremely well, this audition, I can feel it.
0:47:49 > 0:47:52When you have confidence, that's your spirit in your heart.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54# Show me how to fight for now
0:47:54 > 0:47:57# And I tell you, baby
0:47:57 > 0:48:01# It was easy coming back here to you once I figured it out
0:48:01 > 0:48:04# You were right here all along... #
0:48:04 > 0:48:07Manchester, make some noise, come on! CHEERING
0:48:07 > 0:48:09You see something in their eyes.
0:48:09 > 0:48:13When they look at the audience, you can see how much they want it.
0:48:13 > 0:48:15# It's like you're my mirror. #
0:48:17 > 0:48:20Yes! Yes!
0:48:22 > 0:48:24You had them. That is a gift.
0:48:24 > 0:48:28Keep going with that, you've got star talent.
0:48:28 > 0:48:30Hiya. You all right?
0:48:31 > 0:48:34You can't really give someone a personality.
0:48:34 > 0:48:36They've either got it or they haven't.
0:48:36 > 0:48:40My name is Harry Fabulous Brown and I'm 17 years old.
0:48:40 > 0:48:42CHEERING Harry Fabulous...
0:48:42 > 0:48:45- Is that your real name? Fabulous? - That is my genuine, real name.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50# My mamma don't like you, and she likes everyone... #
0:48:50 > 0:48:54Before I was born, my sister, she used to call me Baby Fabulous.
0:48:54 > 0:48:56# And I've been so caught up in my job
0:48:56 > 0:48:59# I didn't see what's going on... #
0:48:59 > 0:49:02And so when my dad was sent to the registry office,
0:49:02 > 0:49:05he just thought, why don't I just call him Harry Fabulous Brown?
0:49:05 > 0:49:08- LAUGHTER - And it's stuck ever since.
0:49:08 > 0:49:12# You should go and love yourself. #
0:49:16 > 0:49:19Oh! Oh! Oh!
0:49:20 > 0:49:2417 stars? Wow.
0:49:24 > 0:49:26'One of the best things that happens for me
0:49:26 > 0:49:28'is when you're completely surprised.'
0:49:28 > 0:49:29# I was left... #
0:49:29 > 0:49:32'Could that be in the show? Well, yeah, it could be.'
0:49:32 > 0:49:36And all of a sudden, you start to think differently about the endgame.
0:49:36 > 0:49:37And that's exciting.
0:49:37 > 0:49:41# Woo! #
0:49:44 > 0:49:47Yeah!
0:49:47 > 0:49:50I'm always worried when people come out and they're full of personality,
0:49:50 > 0:49:52and often it fades when the song starts.
0:49:52 > 0:49:54You actually backed it up with some real talent.
0:49:54 > 0:49:56CHEERING
0:49:56 > 0:49:59On audition day you have to feel your best.
0:49:59 > 0:50:02If you don't, it's the worst nightmare.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04- How are you doing?- All right.
0:50:04 > 0:50:06My throat's just a little bit sore.
0:50:06 > 0:50:09Are you going to be able to get the high notes?
0:50:09 > 0:50:11We'll have to wait and find out.
0:50:11 > 0:50:13What do you do for a living?
0:50:13 > 0:50:15I'm an actor/singer/dancer.
0:50:15 > 0:50:20- I managed to be in The Book Of Mormon in the West End.- Oh, wow.
0:50:20 > 0:50:23# You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
0:50:23 > 0:50:27# I'm shaking, falling onto my knees...#
0:50:27 > 0:50:29When you want a part so badly,
0:50:29 > 0:50:32but your body lets you down, it can be really tough.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34And it can really hurt.
0:50:34 > 0:50:36# I'll be needing stitches... #
0:50:36 > 0:50:38I don't know if you've told anyone,
0:50:38 > 0:50:41but you're either getting over a cold, or you've got a cold, right?
0:50:41 > 0:50:44- I've got tonsillitis. - AUDIENCE:- Aw!
0:50:44 > 0:50:47Cos I can tell you can sing, but you're far from your best.
0:50:47 > 0:50:48You shouldn't even be talking.
0:50:48 > 0:50:51If your doctor saw you now, he'd be like, "Sh!"
0:50:51 > 0:50:54- Which shows me that you really want this.- Yeah!
0:51:04 > 0:51:07- I did it...just!- Oh, wow!- 15.
0:51:07 > 0:51:10- Oh!- Such a relief.
0:51:10 > 0:51:14- Yay! Can we get you a hot lemon and honey?- I'd love a brew.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17Yeah, a little brew? I shall sort that out for you. Come on.
0:51:22 > 0:51:27Meet 27-year-old business analyst and singer Kyle.
0:51:27 > 0:51:29All right, Billy Elliot in the room.
0:51:29 > 0:51:33He's busy boosting his boyband chances with some priceless
0:51:33 > 0:51:36- dance tuition.- I'm like a baby elephant as opposed to Billy Elliot.
0:51:36 > 0:51:39OK. I'll tell you what you do need to be able to do.
0:51:39 > 0:51:41Take That started with the running man.
0:51:41 > 0:51:42- Can you do the running man?- No.
0:51:42 > 0:51:45- Come on, Howard. You know the running man.- Can you do that?
0:51:45 > 0:51:49- I don't want to attempt it, cos I'll probably look like...- Come on.
0:51:49 > 0:51:51- Right...- There you go.
0:51:51 > 0:51:55That's it. You are in. You are officially in.
0:51:55 > 0:51:56Nice one.
0:51:59 > 0:52:03I am Kyle's biggest fan. And I'm not ashamed to admit it.
0:52:03 > 0:52:07My heart bursts when I hear him sing. I just love it.
0:52:07 > 0:52:11Kyle's big dream is to be on stage entertaining,
0:52:11 > 0:52:13singing his heart away.
0:52:13 > 0:52:16Every single Christmas party we have at work, he's the first person
0:52:16 > 0:52:19to try and get on the stage and grab the mic off the DJ.
0:52:19 > 0:52:23He comes as this bit of a cheeky chappie, Jack the Lad.
0:52:23 > 0:52:26But when he sings, he's serious about it.
0:52:26 > 0:52:29I don't think his future lies here in this office.
0:52:29 > 0:52:31I think his future lies out there on the stage,
0:52:31 > 0:52:34because you can just see it's what he wants to do.
0:52:34 > 0:52:38Kyle's probably a nervous person, but it never shows.
0:52:38 > 0:52:41Kyle, you just need to believe in yourself. You just need
0:52:41 > 0:52:43to have confidence in what you do.
0:52:43 > 0:52:45CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:52:53 > 0:52:57- Hi, how are you?- I'm really good, thanks.- Good, what's your name?
0:52:57 > 0:52:59My name's Kyle Passmore. I'm 27, from Blackpool,
0:52:59 > 0:53:01live in Birmingham now.
0:53:01 > 0:53:02CHEERING
0:53:05 > 0:53:06So what do you do for a living?
0:53:06 > 0:53:08Monday to Friday I'm a business analyst,
0:53:08 > 0:53:11so I've got to act like, "Hi, good morning, everyone".
0:53:11 > 0:53:13- At the weekend I'm a mess. - LAUGHTER
0:53:13 > 0:53:16Then back at work on Monday, I'm like, "Hi, Janet, you all right?"
0:53:16 > 0:53:19I'm a mess on the weekend too!
0:53:19 > 0:53:23Is this like the most nerve-racking experience? How has it been?
0:53:23 > 0:53:26It's amazing, but it's probably the second. The worst one,
0:53:26 > 0:53:30I worked at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool. The Royal Variety came.
0:53:30 > 0:53:33My boss said, "You can open the door for the Queen." I'm like, "What?!"
0:53:33 > 0:53:36- LAUGHTER - So everyone started bowing, and I'm like...
0:53:36 > 0:53:38LAUGHTER
0:53:38 > 0:53:41That's the picture. I'm like this.
0:53:41 > 0:53:43So that's the most nervous.
0:53:46 > 0:53:47But obviously this is just as nervous.
0:53:47 > 0:53:49I've had a similar experience.
0:53:49 > 0:53:52- I met the President of the United States, President Obama.- Oh, my God.
0:53:52 > 0:53:55And I sang for him, and I snorted...
0:53:55 > 0:53:58So... LAUGHTER
0:53:58 > 0:53:59We're in the same boat, kinda.
0:53:59 > 0:54:03- Exactly!- Well, I'm really excited to hear you sing.
0:54:03 > 0:54:05- So are you ready to give it a go? - I'm ready to do it.
0:54:05 > 0:54:07- All right, good luck.- Thank you.

0:54:35 > 0:54:41# And I was meant to tread the water, ooh
0:54:41 > 0:54:44# But now I've gotten in too deep
0:54:47 > 0:54:52# For every piece of me that wants you
0:54:53 > 0:54:57# Another piece backs away
0:54:57 > 0:55:05# Cos you give me something You make me scared, all right
0:55:05 > 0:55:10# This could be nothing But I'm willing to give it a try
0:55:10 > 0:55:15# Please give me something
0:55:15 > 0:55:20# Cos someday I might call you from my heart
0:55:20 > 0:55:23# But it might be a second too late
0:55:25 > 0:55:29# And the words that I could never say
0:55:29 > 0:55:34# Gonna come out anyway, yeah... #
0:55:34 > 0:55:37CHEERING

0:56:01 > 0:56:03Good job, Kyle.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11Judges, have you all put in your scores?
0:56:11 > 0:56:12Martin, what did you think?
0:56:12 > 0:56:14You know, in auditions in drama,
0:56:14 > 0:56:16there's three Cs that they talk about.
0:56:16 > 0:56:19You have to be confident, you have to be charismatic,
0:56:19 > 0:56:21and you have to be comfortable.
0:56:21 > 0:56:23You had all three.
0:56:23 > 0:56:27I absolutely loved this audition.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30- Amber?- I enjoyed it.
0:56:30 > 0:56:33I know that you may have been little shaky and you were looking up,
0:56:33 > 0:56:37but I think you were putting all of your emotion into it,
0:56:37 > 0:56:38and a love for music.
0:56:38 > 0:56:40And I personally appreciate that.
0:56:40 > 0:56:43I love when someone loves music as much as I do,
0:56:43 > 0:56:45and you made me feel that.
0:56:45 > 0:56:46It was great.
0:56:48 > 0:56:52OK, let's see what the total number of stars is.
0:56:52 > 0:56:56You can get a maximum of 20, but you've got to get 15, Kyle.
0:56:56 > 0:56:58Here you go.

0:57:37 > 0:57:39You're through! You're through.
0:57:45 > 0:57:47Somebody slightly spoilt the party.
0:57:47 > 0:57:50BOOING
0:57:52 > 0:57:54Dannii, four?
0:57:54 > 0:57:59Four. I honestly think you have so much more to give.
0:57:59 > 0:58:03- You've got further to go.- Yeah. - Five stars?- He was five stars!
0:58:03 > 0:58:06Do you know how many people get a five-star review?
0:58:06 > 0:58:08He had five stars written all over him.
0:58:08 > 0:58:10CHEERING
0:58:10 > 0:58:12And then a final word from Gary Barlow?
0:58:12 > 0:58:14A big, ringing endorsement there.
0:58:14 > 0:58:16Five stars out of five.
0:58:16 > 0:58:18Yeah, you know, we sit here studying,
0:58:18 > 0:58:22watching for movements, listening for sounds, pitch, whatever else.
0:58:22 > 0:58:26This was five stars with my heart, this one.
0:58:26 > 0:58:28CHEERING
0:58:30 > 0:58:35- Well, this has pretty much gone as well as you could have hoped.- Yeah.
0:58:35 > 0:58:37- What have you got to say after that? - Thank you so much.
0:58:37 > 0:58:41You've done a massive thing for me right now. Like, it's been amazing.
0:58:41 > 0:58:44We are all so happy for you, Kyle.
0:58:44 > 0:58:46You're through to the next stage of the competition.

0:58:47 > 0:58:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:58:49 > 0:58:51Well done, sir.
0:58:51 > 0:58:53Dannii? Wa-wa!
0:58:55 > 0:58:59It was all going so well. I was ready for the standing ovation.
0:58:59 > 0:59:02- I was ready to get up. - Well, then you should have got up!
0:59:02 > 0:59:04- I was ready for the confetti... - You should have!
0:59:06 > 0:59:12- Guys, I got 19 stars!- Yeah!
0:59:12 > 0:59:1419? Did you see your mum?
0:59:14 > 0:59:17Yeah, she wasn't even looking at me. She was looking at Gary. Like...
0:59:17 > 0:59:18I was like...
0:59:19 > 0:59:22Melanie Giedroyc, what are we actually doing?
0:59:22 > 0:59:24You know when the lads do the kind of, cool
0:59:24 > 0:59:27- slow-mo walk through the tunnel? - Yeah...
0:59:27 > 0:59:30- Yeah? And their life flashes around them in an interesting way?- Yes.
0:59:30 > 0:59:34- We're going to do it.- Really? - Are you up for it?
0:59:34 > 0:59:36- Yeah!- Come on. To the tunnel.
0:59:41 > 0:59:46- I love Graham. He's such an amazing bloke, isn't he?- Who's that?
0:59:47 > 0:59:49Is that Sue's friend?
0:59:49 > 0:59:52Graham, top guy. Suave.
0:59:54 > 0:59:57Mel, she really takes the biscuit.
0:59:57 > 1:00:00In fact, she really did take my biscuits.
1:00:00 > 1:00:03How good was that?
1:00:03 > 1:00:06Are you having a laugh? Did you see what they put in the tunnel?!
1:00:10 > 1:00:12Back to business, Mel.
1:00:12 > 1:00:14Next up, it's two boys with different sets of skills
1:00:14 > 1:00:16to bring to their audition.
1:00:16 > 1:00:19Professional circus performer Matt wants to show off his moves
1:00:19 > 1:00:21as well as his singing.
1:00:21 > 1:00:22But for student Josh,
1:00:22 > 1:00:24it's all about vocal gymnastics.
1:00:27 > 1:00:32My name is Josh. I'm 17 years old and I'm from Reigate, Surrey.
1:00:32 > 1:00:34My name's Matt Knight. I'm 27, I'm from Gloucester.
1:00:34 > 1:00:37- What do you normally do? - Physical theatre and circus
1:00:37 > 1:00:40- and comedy standstill, as you can probably tell.- Yeah, I can see that.
1:00:40 > 1:00:43Hopefully I can...show you some moves.
1:00:43 > 1:00:46I'm currently at college five days a week,
1:00:46 > 1:00:49and then four nights a week I work at the local supermarket.
1:00:49 > 1:00:52But the dream is something more?
1:00:52 > 1:00:54I never aspire to anything else.
1:00:54 > 1:00:58- It's just singing I've wanted to do. - OK. Well, show us what you've got.
1:00:58 > 1:01:00Thank you very much.
1:01:00 > 1:01:03MUSIC: Jealous
1:01:06 > 1:01:09# I'm jealous of the rain
1:01:11 > 1:01:15# That falls upon your skin
1:01:17 > 1:01:22# It's closer than my hands have been
1:01:22 > 1:01:26# Oh, I'm jealous of the rain
1:01:28 > 1:01:32# I'm jealous of the wind
1:01:34 > 1:01:37# That ripples through your clothes
1:01:39 > 1:01:44# It's closer than your shadow
1:01:45 > 1:01:49# Oh, I'm jealous of the wind... #
1:01:49 > 1:01:52# So wake me up when it's all over
1:01:52 > 1:01:56# When I'm wiser and I'm older
1:01:57 > 1:02:00# All this time I was finding myself
1:02:00 > 1:02:05# And I didn't know I was lost... #
1:02:06 > 1:02:10CHEERING
1:02:10 > 1:02:15# And I told you when you left me
1:02:15 > 1:02:20# There's nothing to forgive
1:02:20 > 1:02:23# But I always thought you'd come back
1:02:23 > 1:02:31# Tell me all you felt was heartbreak and misery
1:02:31 > 1:02:34# It's hard for me to say
1:02:34 > 1:02:37# I'm jealous of the way
1:02:37 > 1:02:40# You're happy without me... #
1:02:40 > 1:02:42CHEERING
1:02:58 > 1:03:02So, two different approaches.
1:03:02 > 1:03:04But have they done enough for a place in the next stage?
1:03:16 > 1:03:18CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1:03:24 > 1:03:27It's the potential to use that strength in your voice
1:03:27 > 1:03:30to really kick it out to the back of the room in a theatre.
1:03:30 > 1:03:35But there's also this, like, pop sound about your voice which I love.
1:03:35 > 1:03:38- I think it's all there. - Thank you very much.
1:03:38 > 1:03:41We haven't seen a 10th of what you're going to give us,
1:03:41 > 1:03:44I don't feel. You should be really proud of yourself.
1:03:44 > 1:03:46Josh's vocals clearly impressed.
1:03:48 > 1:03:51But did Matt's singing and dancing gets the judges in a spin?
1:04:03 > 1:04:07CHEERING
1:04:09 > 1:04:11Dude, you flipped on your head!
1:04:11 > 1:04:15Like with no hands!
1:04:17 > 1:04:21Listen, the dancing was amazing, the singing, with practice,
1:04:21 > 1:04:24- it could potentially be really great in a group.- Thank you.
1:04:24 > 1:04:26Thanks so much.
1:04:26 > 1:04:28Yeah, it was a tentative vocal performance,
1:04:28 > 1:04:33and it was interesting watching you transform into the great dancer
1:04:33 > 1:04:36you are, cos actually just singing you were quite robotic.
1:04:36 > 1:04:39And then all of a sudden it was beautiful to then watch you free up,
1:04:39 > 1:04:41and the dancing was incredible.
1:04:41 > 1:04:44So there's work to do on the vocals, but you know what?
1:04:44 > 1:04:48This is very encouraging. I'm very excited to watch that performance.
1:04:48 > 1:04:49Well done.
1:04:51 > 1:04:53- Thank you, guys.- Matt, everybody.
1:04:53 > 1:04:56- There you go.- Thank you very much. Thank you.
1:05:02 > 1:05:06Now if, like Graham, you love spending time on social media,
1:05:06 > 1:05:08then do get involved and tell us what you think.
1:05:08 > 1:05:10We've also got some backstage exclusives
1:05:10 > 1:05:12waiting for you to discover.
1:05:21 > 1:05:24Ever since I was two years old, I've always wanted to be in a boyband.
1:05:24 > 1:05:27Cos I used to watch people like Take That and the Spice Girls
1:05:27 > 1:05:30- and Steps.- Oh!- I say "used to", I still do.- Steps?
1:05:30 > 1:05:33- Steps, who doesn't love a bit of Steps?- You know.
1:05:33 > 1:05:34# Tragedy
1:05:34 > 1:05:37# When I'm washing my hair and it won't come out, it's tragedy... #
1:05:37 > 1:05:39- Exactly.- Wasn't it?
1:05:39 > 1:05:41It's like a whack with your hip and your hand.
1:05:41 > 1:05:43So you shoot to the right, but then, ooh,
1:05:43 > 1:05:47a cheeky shoot to the left, or maybe two. You never know.
1:05:47 > 1:05:49In the '80s, this was quite big.
1:05:49 > 1:05:51So you go...
1:05:51 > 1:05:56- Oh!- It was a double scoop. Double...scoop. Double...scoop.
1:05:56 > 1:05:57That was my signature move.
1:05:57 > 1:06:01- Oh, nice.- And when I did that, boy, oh, boy, Tayler, the floor cleared.
1:06:04 > 1:06:07CHEERING
1:06:16 > 1:06:19- What's your name?- I'm Tayler, so...
1:06:19 > 1:06:21I'm 21, and I'm from Southampton.
1:06:22 > 1:06:25CHEERING
1:06:25 > 1:06:27Have you got family here today?
1:06:27 > 1:06:30- I've got my partner Tom somewhere. - Hi, Tom.
1:06:30 > 1:06:31Hi, Tom.
1:06:33 > 1:06:35Just one second, a minute.
1:06:35 > 1:06:37Tom's very good-looking. Can you sing, Tom?
1:06:37 > 1:06:41- He's better!- Is he? Is he?
1:06:41 > 1:06:43So let us into your world. What's the dream?
1:06:43 > 1:06:46Boyband. Honestly, boyband.
1:06:46 > 1:06:49Christmas 1998, let me take you all back...
1:06:49 > 1:06:50LAUGHTER
1:06:50 > 1:06:55I got a few video tapes of Take That concerts,
1:06:55 > 1:06:58and Spice Girls and Steps.
1:06:58 > 1:07:00And we always had Spandau Ballet in the car, don't worry.
1:07:01 > 1:07:03Yeah!
1:07:03 > 1:07:05We can all relax now.
1:07:05 > 1:07:08And every day I'd just go home and I taught myself each member's
1:07:08 > 1:07:12track throughout the concert, so on a Monday I'd be you,
1:07:12 > 1:07:15and then on a Friday I'd be Howard, you know?
1:07:15 > 1:07:16LAUGHTER
1:07:16 > 1:07:19The closest I've actually got is, I'm in a One Direction tribute band.
1:07:19 > 1:07:22- CHEERING - Yeah. There you go.
1:07:22 > 1:07:25So you're sort of used to having screaming fans, and...?
1:07:25 > 1:07:27Yeah, but not over the age of eight.
1:07:27 > 1:07:29LAUGHTER
1:07:31 > 1:07:33- OK, good luck.- Right, let's do it.

1:07:51 > 1:07:56# I know not everybody has got a body like you
1:07:56 > 1:07:58# Oh, but I've got to think twice
1:07:58 > 1:08:01# Before I give my heart away
1:08:01 > 1:08:03# And I know all the games you play
1:08:03 > 1:08:06# Because I play them too
1:08:06 > 1:08:08# Cos you gotta have faith
1:08:08 > 1:08:11# Oh, I gotta have faith
1:08:11 > 1:08:13# I gotta have faith, faith, faith

1:08:23 > 1:08:27# And another who tied me down to the lover boy rules
1:08:27 > 1:08:31# Before this river becomes an ocean
1:08:31 > 1:08:35# Before you throw my heart back on the floor
1:08:35 > 1:08:41# Oh, well, baby, I reconsider My foolish notion
1:08:41 > 1:08:46# Well, I need someone to hold me But I'll wait for something more
1:08:46 > 1:08:48# Cos I gotta have faith
1:08:48 > 1:08:51# Oh, I gotta have faith

1:08:56 > 1:08:59CHEERING
1:09:01 > 1:09:03Tayler, everybody!
1:09:03 > 1:09:06Judges, judges, input your scores.
1:09:06 > 1:09:10- Oh, how nice to hear adults screaming!- Gosh, I know.
1:09:10 > 1:09:13- Now, I'm going to go to the judges. Martin?- Great energy.
1:09:13 > 1:09:16The way you came up here and you brought it to the desk,
1:09:16 > 1:09:20I loved that. The audience were with you. We were with you.
1:09:20 > 1:09:23Everyone at the back was with you. The song, you sang it well.
1:09:23 > 1:09:25- Well done.- Thank you so much.
1:09:25 > 1:09:28- Thank you.- OK, let's ask Dannii.
1:09:28 > 1:09:29Let's ask Dannii what she thought.
1:09:29 > 1:09:31What did you think, Dannii?
1:09:31 > 1:09:35- Good, good.- Not everything fired as well as it could have.- OK.
1:09:35 > 1:09:37OK.
1:09:37 > 1:09:40BOOING I think that it was a timing issue.
1:09:40 > 1:09:41Yeah.
1:09:41 > 1:09:44So it was rushing at parts, and behind in other parts.
1:09:44 > 1:09:48And it was all a bit frantic. Less is more.
1:09:48 > 1:09:52- That would you my advice for you. - Great. Thank you.- OK.
1:09:52 > 1:09:55- Tayler, we're going to find out how you've been scored now.- OK.
1:09:55 > 1:09:58You need 15 stars or more to light up if you're going through
1:09:58 > 1:09:59- to the next age.- Yeah.
1:09:59 > 1:10:02Good luck. Let's find out how Tayler has been scored.
1:10:21 > 1:10:22Oh!
1:10:22 > 1:10:25AUDIENCE GROANS
1:10:25 > 1:10:27BOOING
1:10:35 > 1:10:37I'm so sorry.
1:10:37 > 1:10:40Judges, don't look shocked! It's your fault!
1:10:42 > 1:10:43BOOING
1:10:45 > 1:10:48OK, let's go to Amber, because Amber, it was a four.
1:10:48 > 1:10:50I think you have complete likeability.
1:10:50 > 1:10:52CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1:10:54 > 1:10:57Yeah, it was a little overdone, but I think it's because you really,
1:10:57 > 1:10:59really want to do something like this, like you said,
1:10:59 > 1:11:02since two years old, this is what you've wanted to do.
1:11:02 > 1:11:05But, yeah, you guys missed the mark on this one. He's really good.
1:11:05 > 1:11:08I saw your face, Gary! I think you're sorry he's not going through.
1:11:08 > 1:11:12I can only tell you what I felt from watching your performance.
1:11:12 > 1:11:16- Right now, you don't have a lot of character in your voice.- OK.
1:11:16 > 1:11:18Your voice is that pre-set theatre voice at the moment,
1:11:18 > 1:11:22which is very nice, but I want voices with edge.
1:11:22 > 1:11:24Cos we're making a modern musical.
1:11:24 > 1:11:27- We're not making something that's 50 years old.- Cool.
1:11:28 > 1:11:33I feel so sorry, you got literally that close to going through.
1:11:33 > 1:11:35Thank you for having me here anyway. Thank you.
1:11:35 > 1:11:37- Honestly. - AUDIENCE:- Aw!
1:11:37 > 1:11:40- Let's hear it for Tayler. - Thank you, guys.
1:11:48 > 1:11:53- One star away.- Ah, that is tough. One away is hard.
1:11:53 > 1:11:55- Tayler...- Hiya.
1:11:55 > 1:11:59I am giving you... Listen, come here.
1:11:59 > 1:12:03Come here. Do not worry.
1:12:03 > 1:12:06- Do you feel a bit deflated? - Yeah, a bit deflated.
1:12:06 > 1:12:09But who wouldn't be, you know? I was only one point away, you know?
1:12:09 > 1:12:13- One star away.- Oh, I know. Stop it. That is so frustrating.
1:12:13 > 1:12:17It's like a... It's right there, come on, come on...
1:12:17 > 1:12:18Oh, no, red, you know?
1:12:18 > 1:12:23- Do you know what? Keep it. - I'm going to keep this going on.
1:12:23 > 1:12:25- And the shoop? - Definitely the shoop.
1:12:25 > 1:12:28- The shoop's not going anywhere. - MEL LAUGHS
1:12:28 > 1:12:30It's almost the end of today's auditions,
1:12:30 > 1:12:33and the judges, quite frankly, have been spoilt with talent.
1:12:33 > 1:12:36Can our final auditionee heroically top them all?
1:12:36 > 1:12:38He's made a name for himself overseas,
1:12:38 > 1:12:40but wants to become massive in the UK.
1:12:40 > 1:12:42His name?
1:12:42 > 1:12:44Hercules...um, Smith.
1:12:49 > 1:12:52Hercules loves to train.
1:12:53 > 1:12:56He goes to the gym a lot - like, every day.
1:12:57 > 1:13:00Hercules, I think he's got a lot to live up to, don't you?
1:13:02 > 1:13:06There's a small side to Hercules. I think he has a shyness about him.
1:13:06 > 1:13:08But it's a nice quality.
1:13:08 > 1:13:11Is Hercules a big softie? Yeah.
1:13:11 > 1:13:15His daughter, Tayla, absolutely adores Hercules.
1:13:15 > 1:13:18Daddy's my number one favourite singer in the world,
1:13:18 > 1:13:20and he's better than Gary Barlow.
1:13:33 > 1:13:37- What's your name?- My name's Hercules. I'm 33 years old.
1:13:37 > 1:13:39- Is that your real name?- Yes, it is.
1:13:39 > 1:13:43In my mother's belly, as you do the baby scans, the doctor said
1:13:43 > 1:13:46that I was going to be big, and have big hands and big feet.
1:13:48 > 1:13:50So yeah, my dad decided to call me Hercules.
1:13:50 > 1:13:53- It's a lot to live up to, isn't it? - It is, it is.
1:13:53 > 1:13:57As a young kid I was the tiniest and smallest boy in school,
1:13:57 > 1:14:00with such a big name, so yeah, it was hard.
1:14:00 > 1:14:02But there it is.
1:14:02 > 1:14:04OK, so what made you apply for the show today?
1:14:07 > 1:14:11One thing is, I love your work, Gary.
1:14:11 > 1:14:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
1:14:19 > 1:14:20Are you OK?
1:14:20 > 1:14:22- AUDIENCE MEMBER:- Come on!
1:14:26 > 1:14:29I tell you what, to have a name like Hercules,
1:14:29 > 1:14:32and come out and be emotional on stage, well done to you, my friend.
1:14:32 > 1:14:34- Yeah.- Lovely.
1:14:35 > 1:14:39And who are you here with today? Who did you come with?
1:14:39 > 1:14:41My wife and my daughter's here.
1:14:41 > 1:14:43Your biggest fans?
1:14:46 > 1:14:50Hercules, can I ask - I've just heard a little bit of an accent.
1:14:50 > 1:14:53- Where are you from?- All the way from South Africa.- Good. Well, welcome.
1:14:53 > 1:14:55- We can't wait to hear you sing. - Thank you so much.
1:15:03 > 1:15:08MUSIC: Iris
1:15:12 > 1:15:16# And I'll give up forever to touch you
1:15:18 > 1:15:22# Cos I know that you feel me somehow
1:15:23 > 1:15:29# You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
1:15:29 > 1:15:33# And I don't want to go home right now
1:15:35 > 1:15:39# And all I can taste is this moment
1:15:41 > 1:15:45# And all I can breathe is your life
1:15:46 > 1:15:50# When sooner or later it's over
1:15:52 > 1:15:56# I just don't wanna miss you tonight
1:15:57 > 1:16:02# And I don't want the world to see me
1:16:02 > 1:16:08# Cos I don't think that they'd understand
1:16:08 > 1:16:14# When everything's made to be broken
1:16:14 > 1:16:19# I just want you to know who I am
1:16:19 > 1:16:25# And I don't want the world to see me
1:16:25 > 1:16:37# Cos I don't think that they'd understand
1:16:40 > 1:16:45# I just want you to know who I am. #
1:16:46 > 1:16:50CHEERING
1:16:51 > 1:16:55Wow. Hercules, everybody!
1:16:55 > 1:16:58Well done, sir. Well done.
1:16:59 > 1:17:01That was stunning, well done.
1:17:01 > 1:17:03Let's go to Amber.
1:17:03 > 1:17:06Well, the one thing that the performance did not lack
1:17:06 > 1:17:10was passion. You are so passionate about music.
1:17:10 > 1:17:14- And you have a background in opera? Yes?- Yeah.
1:17:14 > 1:17:18Yes, your breathing... Your lungs probably expanded so much,
1:17:18 > 1:17:23they are so big. You blew me away with your voice.
1:17:23 > 1:17:26- And I absolutely loved you. I did. - Thank you so much.
1:17:27 > 1:17:30There's no denying Hercules has got a great voice.
1:17:30 > 1:17:32Is he right for the competition, Gary?
1:17:32 > 1:17:35Interestingly, the crowd really reacted to your operatic voice.
1:17:35 > 1:17:37Thank you so much.
1:17:37 > 1:17:40And it is very impressive, but actually for me, I was more
1:17:40 > 1:17:44interested in your pop voice, cos you presented us with both tonight.
1:17:44 > 1:17:47- I did.- And obviously for the show that we are putting on,
1:17:47 > 1:17:49it's going to be the music of Take That.
1:17:49 > 1:17:52And I want to hear those songs sung in the pop voice, not...
1:17:52 > 1:17:55- OPERATIC VOICE:- # All I do each night is pray... #
1:17:55 > 1:17:58- LAUGHTER - You know? But listen...
1:17:58 > 1:18:03- Gary, he didn't sound like that!- No, he didn't. Fair enough, he didn't.
1:18:03 > 1:18:06- But listen, you have an amazing talent there, sir...- Thank you.
1:18:06 > 1:18:11..and the passion, as Amber said, is absolutely beautiful. I love that.
1:18:11 > 1:18:14There's one thing about people in theatre,
1:18:14 > 1:18:18is that the passion is absolutely crucial. And you have bags of it.
1:18:18 > 1:18:21- Thank you.- Well done.- All right, this is the moment of truth.
1:18:21 > 1:18:24Let's find out how Hercules has been scored.

1:19:06 > 1:19:09- Yeah, I'm not crying cos I'm sad. - Let it out, cry it out.
1:19:09 > 1:19:13- Cry it out. Look at your daughter up there. Is that Tayla?- Yeah.
1:19:13 > 1:19:15There she is. She's thrilled for you.
1:19:15 > 1:19:17Dannii, what have you got to say to Hercules?
1:19:17 > 1:19:21You know, you're perfect for this business because thespians
1:19:21 > 1:19:25on the stage are very emotional, and very dramatic.
1:19:25 > 1:19:26And you've got that.
1:19:26 > 1:19:29We don't need to teach you that. Done.
1:19:29 > 1:19:31Martin, what you want to say to her?
1:19:31 > 1:19:34There's a saying, isn't there? An old saying in theatre,
1:19:34 > 1:19:38about lifting the roof off the house. And that's what you did, man.
1:19:38 > 1:19:43CHEERING Absolutely lifted the roof off the house.
1:19:43 > 1:19:47I felt everything you were singing. It made me so emotional,
1:19:47 > 1:19:50- because it was a great performance. - Thank you so much.
1:19:50 > 1:19:52- You should be so proud.- Thank you.
1:19:57 > 1:19:59Tell me this, Hercules, are you always this emotional,
1:19:59 > 1:20:01or is it something about today? What's going on?
1:20:01 > 1:20:04- Let me tell you why.- OK, please do.
1:20:04 > 1:20:09I've been chasing my dream for a long time,
1:20:09 > 1:20:11so it's kind of nice to get the recognition.
1:20:11 > 1:20:14Well, you're on your way. You're on your way. I'm so happy for you.
