6:20PM: 40 minutes until the show starts on BBC One!
7:02PM: The coaches open up with an epic performance of U2′s Beautiful Day. Danny on the guitar!
7:06PM: Host Holly is on screen and makes a slip up… Team Tim’s artists singing tonight!
7:14PM: Joelle opens the show and gets Will.i.am on his feet. Jessie says she was “so good” while Danny reckons it was “outstanding”.
7.17PM: Sam Buttery’s on now, singing ‘A Little Respect’. He’s wearing a rather weird black shirt emblazoned with red skulls.
7.20PM: Sam’s coach Tom Jones says he was ‘spot on’, while Danny O’Donoghue describes his performance as ‘timeless’. However, Will.i.am said a part of it was ‘flat’, and Jessie J didn’t like his dancers.
7.25PM: We just heard Frances Wood singing ‘Ain’t Nobody’ with a rocky twang. Jessie J gives her thumbs up to Frances for making the song her own and says she wishes she turned for her at the Blind Auditions, but Danny says she was a little ‘stiff’ to begin with.
7.32pm Adam Isaac is on now and he’s out to prove that he’s not just a background performer! He’s singing ‘All My Life’ by Foo Fighters.
7.37PM Over to the coaches, and Danny praises him for ‘bringing rock to a new audience’. Will says he’d take his hat off if he had one, while Jessie advises Adam to relax his jaw during high notes.
7.41PM: The fifth act to perform is Jaz Ellington, and in Holly’s words, he has a lot to live up to with his rendition of ‘At Last’…
7.45PM: Will’s on his feet for Jaz, while Jessie says she can only ‘sit, stare and be in awe of him’. Danny describes him as an ‘incredibly talented vocalist’ but he isn’t sure he’s singing the right songs.
7.51PM: Leanne Mitchell just put in an impressive performance of ‘Who Knew’ by P!nk. Danny suggests that they’d have heard her high notes on the International Space Station, but Jessie wasn’t impressed by the dancers!
8.00PM: Sophie Griffin’s performance of ‘Titanium’ by David Guetta won over Sir Tom, who praised her confidence, while Danny now understands why Will put her through over J Marie Cooper.
8:09PM: Duo Matt and Sueleen get a positive reaction from the coaches, with Jessie admitting she wanted them on her team and Will saying that the world “needed a group like you guys”.
8:16PM: Tyler James impresses the coaches with his falsetto. Danny says he wants to see the track on his debut album, while Will brands him “super mega fresh”
8:24PM: Ruth Brown brings the house down with an epic performance that has all four coaches on their feet. Jessie is crying and Sir Tom can’t hear Holly over the crowd!
8:30PM: And that’s that! Join us tomorrow at 7:25PM for the results…
