Incredible voice, but... She just doesn't sound like an overworked working class liverpudlian woman. She doesn't even sound particularly upset, considering that this is one of the saddest songs in the entire play.
Ten out of ten for singing, but at least for this song, her acting seems very lacking. I can't talk about the rest of the play obviously, don't get me wrong - I just don't think that her acting was as good as it could have been for this particular song.
Now she's done (well, doing) the London stint I'm sure she'll be called up in the future to cover the tour for weeks here and there like the Nolans seem to get these days. Lyn Paul also seems cover for wherever she's needed as well as getting some dates herself (she came in and played Mrs J recently when Mel C was ill and the understudy was off playing Mrs J in Glasgow).
i have seen this with her in it last week she sound much more convincing in her part now

I saw this last night. I didn't even remember it was some bird out of the Spice Girls until my wife reminded me.
It was absolutely wonderful.
