I think the reason they were so much better the first time was the element of surprise. We knew what was coming this time so it wasn’t as funny. The audition was hysterical.

[travioliraviolicanoli]

i love how she stays in character even after the act

[glowworm]

To be fair, a kind of act like this only works once because no one was initially expecting the twist. Now that the twist is known beforehand, it no longer works.

[Yelta]

These women are so talented!! So much in their presentation and their voices are awesome! Great show!

[simmersummerSIMS]

I mean yeah, it didn't feel the same as the first one but can we at least appreciate their harmony? I loved it❤️

[natesvideos]

I feel like a movie would suit them more than a short bit like this. It would make them land and develop jokes better

[battlepup]

4:19 - I love that the audience overpowers the judges.

[iPaperMade]

Even though its not surprising as the first audition. They still did an amazing job.

[OfentseMwaseFilms]

I knew from Day 1 their next act wouldn’t be as good. They needed to come up with something different completely. Not the team member ruins the act routine.

[AndrewMacLaine]

What could've saved it would be a short messy beginning, followed by the act "accidentally" going WELL. Every time it looks like something will go wrong, the stand in saves the day.

When I saw their first performance my immediate reaction was "That won't work twice." Nuff said.

[jaypremium]

They’re still in character while being critiqued! And the guy is still laying there on the ground! Hahaha

[camrenwick]

Simon needs dogs, teletubbies or people dressed as dinosaurs walking around

[RayVonNova]

Yeah their act is extremely good, but it'll only work if you weren't expecting it

[avrilpeters]

I absolutely loved the dots they were so funny in their audition and in the semifinals but then again I adore slapstick comedy and this is exactly what they do😀

[jillhoover]

I lovedit! Their singing is spot on! Does anyone even notice that? And it was fun to watch! Not as funny as last time, but fun!

[cool]

Their audition was way better. I really enjoyed just the three of them and they don’t have to add all the other stuff like tonight. They just missed the mark. 😢

[bobbya]

They needed to bring a new surprise this time. Maybe have three others on stage singing and have The Dots slowly sabotage them or something

[ashleyp.]

It's always the case with a "....goes wrong" type act - especially one that is all based round a group of singers. It quickly stops being funny because the element of surprise has been lost. Who remembers "Signature" audition 13 years ago on the BGT which was an act that "appeared" to go wrong, but had a big surprise in it? Their follow up was nowhere near as good, because the surprise was lost.

Look at the beginning of this routine - AGAIN we find out that Cathy is just joining them... didn't they mention this at the beginning of the audition act?

[PacyMitchEditz]

Well sounding from the audience they want them through as it brings comedic affect
