The X Factor

Vernon and Moyles mentioned it to each other and they both kind of avoided the questions there on Radio 1.

Apparently Cowell has been "wooing" Moyles and Vernon said nothing.

I thought Fearne was really good on Series 2 of Love Island.

It wasn't a bad show in all fairness, I think that the damage was already done after the first series.

What a surprise, Simon in today's Sun claiming ITV made the axing decisions. Well I have to say I believe him - typical them really, get a show into the contract then start their meddling. Hope you're happy ITV

I will miss Kate i think she is great and she is genuine.I don't think it has done the show any harm publicty wise has it maybe that's what this is all about.

It will be a shame to see Kate go, but maybe it's time for her to move on also. As she is apparently going to do other projects for ITV. As for Loui I won't really miss him, it will be great to see a couple of new faces on the judges panel. As for the rumours on Ben Shephard hosting the show - GOD HELP US!

I think the knifes have been out for Louie since the thing with the Conway sisters!,

I'm hopping its Andai peter or Holly and Steven

All terrible 3rd rate choices.

Surely the only reason for ditching Kate would be because they could attract somebody stellar, otherwise why bother.

Exactly!

The Wales on Sunday mentioning Steve Jones as a touted replacement for Kate.

They would.

How about Dick & Dom? If the judges start bickering they could difuse the tension by throwing a bucket of kreemy muck muck at them. Also, if they're lowering the audition ages, we're moving into the CITV/CBBC sector.

Light the blue touchpaper & stand well back......
