For show two we returned to Sligo to see who got through to the next round and Galway! After a tense deliberation the judges decided that only eight people were good enough to go to bootcamp from Sligo. Galway proved to have much more talent with the judges choosing a record fourteen acts to go forward in the competition but it was not without its drama. Having returned for the second time this year Catherine Harding still divided the judges and had to battle for her place in a sing off with Cathriona Clotherty. In the end, the judges decided to put them both through after two outstanding performances!
