I think Phillip And Chico should have been in the bottom 2

I did feel sorry for Sharon but then again if she wasnt that sure,and didnt want to break the hearts of two brillant groups why didnt she accept for the public vote ?


I think she thought if they went to the public vote then maybe Chenai would have gone and she didnt want that, she liked both acts so didnt want to send either home but she preferred Chenai.

Louis should have kept quiet though, it was Sharon's turn to speak and he kept telling here to save Chenai Rolling Eyes

Has loue Walsh broken ITC regulation HAS he, because what he said is a disgrace and he need good kick up the back side!

I will be ringing the ITC on Monday morning AND ITV and about what the said! And everyone else should do the same

I don’t about X factor! I don’t care Who win but what he said well “


You can try ringing the ITC but you won't get far because they don't even exist no more. And it's only a competition. If what Louis said is so bad that it's going to actually offend someone then they shouldn't watch it. It's only a televised competition and there has been much worse on TV that has been worthy of complaints then something like this.

I think he is on about when Louis kept telling Sharon to keep Chenai in when she was trying to decide who to send home. However I cant see offcom being interested in something like that! Thornton should have told Louis to shut up as it wasnt his turn to vote, he had already had his say.

Have to agree with Marksi there...

Louis didn't exactly splurt out a load of expletives on prime time television there did he now?

What is he supposed to have done to warrant complaining to the official bodies???

I also read this post and thought "Huh?" in true Harry Hill TV Burp style! What's that last sentence supposed to mean, especially with the random quotation mark at the end? Laughing

A fantastic show tonight, with far more brilliant than lacklustre performances. Also, much better with the acts getting to sing more complete versions of the songs!

It was difficult to predict the bottom two, but I don't think anyone expected 4Tune. Chenai wasn't too much of a surprise, and I expected the overrated Andy to be there too, mainly due to him performing first and the judges on the whole being quite positive about subsequent performers.

The final judges vote is what is great about the format - it makes things unpredictable and also brings in a tactical element. It's a great twist, though obviously sometimes goes against what the viewers want.

I'd personally have said 4Tune over Chenai as they'd have a better chance of progressing in the competition (expected them to be top group actually!), and what Louis did was no more than Simon did last week!

The flaw here though is there is no penalty against the judges for not voting. Kate said numerous times tonight they'd go to the public vote if Sharron failed to decide, and this is a far too convenient get-out clause. I think if a judge fails to vote one week, the next week their act with the least votes should be automatically in the final showdown.

I'm not a great fan of The Conway Sisters for some reason. I'm probably expecting them to be like The Corrs.

Good to see the right show is on top!

Also good to see that while SCD has about the same figures as last week, The X Factor has increased it's audience.

According to an interview with Simon Cowell on Teletext today, there will be a small change to the format from Saturday designed to make the final showdown fairer.

It doesn't say what, but implies it'll still be the two with the least votes at risk of going!


Hopefully it's not too big a change - the gloriously unfair nature of the judges votes is what makes it so unpredictable!
