 * Is it possible to have comments appear only to administrators on certain posts?

 * not by default… you might find a plugin to do that, though.
 * you could code it reasonably easily in the template – based on custom fields,
   for example. How’s your PHP?

 * I don’t think my PHP is advanced enough to code something from scratch… modifying
   it I’m fine with. It’s just… we have a competition that we are running, and to
   try and make entries easy we thought it would be best just to have people post
   a comment as normal, only on this particular entry only admins will see what 
   they say.

 * perhaps what you need is a contact form, which will just email instead…
 * it’s not exactly what you want, but it’s easy. If you need to use that regularly,
   and it should be accessed by multiple people, then make a gmail account specifically
   for the purpose, so you can all dive in there and access the mails.
