I'm looking forward to seeing the set for the live shows this year, do you think it will again be completely different to the previous series?

I think the set is new again but interestingly they're staying put at Fountain, a wise decision in my book. Fountain is definitely becoming the place to be! And the food's better as well. I think what swayed Mr Cowell was the prices at Pinewood shocked him and Fountain boosted their audience capacity to 1000 so more than adequate for X Factor. Wonder if the final will go elsewhere though...

A live outdoor finale would be nice, with fireworks etc along the Thames although thats a bit OTT for many i think.

I read an article on the Media Guardian site last year which suggested that ITV wanted to make the final a bigger event than before - a bit like American idol. Not sure if that's still the plan but it would be nice.

That's being said for years now. They also said it wouldn't be at Fountain.

I think the article was talking about the final alone, i.e. the live shows would remain at Fountain but the final would be at a higher-profile venue. I recall them saying something about revamping the final into a "red-carpet" event and inviting celebrities along.

The chances are it will remain where it is though.

Dannii can do no wrong in my opinion!! Smile

Fearne is OK but nowhere near as good as Ben. Can't say that I'm missing Kate at all, I think Demott will do a good job.

You mean Dermot will actually appear for more than two seconds on the live shows!
