Aoife, you're doing great, keep it up. The Tipp and Dublin cousins are behind you all the way and drumming up support wherever we go. The phones and texts are gone mad! Go for it girl.

Lynne D
You were fantastic Aoife. Your face was glowing and your acting .... wow, nearly knocked my socks off! Good luck!

Mairin McCabe
Hey Aoife, one of the Dublin strand of the family here! Well from showing off our singing talents in the sitting room of Brian's house as kids, you have definitely shown you were the better one :) You are brilliant and the McCabe's have everyone rooting for the best!! Good luck, you are doing us all proud!

Hannah
I think the judges were totaly wrong. I thought you were great! The dance moves wer reli good and you sung the song realy wel! I hope you win! xx

James Black
With respect, how can comments on the vocals be "too critical". We are looking for someone who can carry the principal vocal part in a West End. The standards have to be as high as professionally possible or the show will risk being a self-publicising turkey.

Dryden and Amie
Once again you were amazing, you had the toughest job by far but you really pulled it off. Thought the acting was also brill. We are all rootin' for you in s.hill and cant wait to come over and see you liven' up that stage! Keep it up. xx

toby

Wow! Aoife is stunning, cheeky and certainly 'razzle dazzled' me on Saturday! She stands out from the crowd and she's shown she can act - a must for Maria. Go Aoife!!

Aoife you've knocked our socks off every week so far - we're rooting for you in Bristol and telling everyone we know that you are Maria - and they all agree! xxxx

Kathryn
Your performance last night was incredible, and very entertaining. I loved it. You deserve to be there right to the end!

Sandra
I thought she was brilliant!For me the best singer/entertainer in the show,& the prettiest.Good Luck Aoife.

Valerie Gentilini
Aoife, have been following your progress from Australia and have quite few friends in the entertainment industry.We all agree you have it all! Most importantly, we believe that you really look and sound like you are our Maria!Can't wait for this amazing musical to come to fruition to relive my childhood and enjoy The Sound Of Music all over again! Will certainly be making the trip to the West End with my children in tow to see you in the production! Good luck !

Grainne Reidy here., Lisa's friend. We thought you were brilliant tonight- you had the hardest act to do. Keep up the good work

LESLIE WALLS
You "ARE" THE ONE!!! Comment on vocals was ONCE AGAIN too critical and your routine was VERY COMPETENT - something the others have yet to do. The darkened hair was great. Soften - `slightly` - the Irish accent. I like your non bitchiness too.

Joe McNamara
Keep up the good work Aoife! I'm getting all of the Irish in Bristol behind you....and a few in Southampton, and a few friends in Glasgow. Great job with the hat and cane, you're doing Salthill, Galway and Ireland proud.
