I predicted Rachel and John & Edward in the final two after watching it last night. To be fair to the twins, they are doing their best. Its similar to when Chico was in the competition a few years ago, he couldnt sing either but at least he could dance. Louis Walsh said when he picked them they were a risk and they had the likeability factor and obviously the public feel the same way two otherwise they would have been voted out by now.
As for Rikki, glad he went as his eyebrow was beginning to get on my nerves...
The way i always see this show is that you have to be really good to win it so if you go out early and there is a comedy act like those two creepy brother and sister act or the bloke who kept crying over his poor wifes death (sad i know but every week tears come on)
then i doesnt really matter, Ricky Was shite as is that lloyd fella (not Sam) Rachel is pretty poor and i cant stand that geordie (both)
It is great saturday night TV especially when times are tight when you can sit in with a couple of bottles of wine and laugh at how rude Simon Cowell can be to everyone and actually see some really good Talented Brits some who have been trying for years like Jamie afro really get a chance.
Them twins are Irish...........but then again, they aint talented!

Ditto, he was never going to win, he was a right drip.

Ha ha great look-a-like. She's got too many teeth in her mouth as well.
Yes the twins are annoying but they're so bad they're entertaining. Some of the others (Ricki, Rachel, Lloyd etc) aren't that good and aren't entertaining either.

Apologies mate, mis-read your post. I'm not a regular watcher of the show so didn't know who Jamie Afro is/was
[cite]Posted By: JT[/cite]How can anyone watch this tripe.
I have a young child so can't go out every Saturday. I can't stand come dancing. It's easy viewing and it gets people talking. I like listening to live singing.
Plenty of reasons to watch and it's a good talking point - if you don't watch it then probably best if you don't bother commenting in here
Simples :-)
For the record ;
Lucie - not going to win but I most definitely would!
Jamie, Olly and Danyl will go far as will Dobbie from Dagenham and the young lad Joe
All the others are fillers and John and Edward are so bad they're good - car crash tv at its best
Dannii looks beautiful some weeks and really ropey on others
Cheryl is annoying and whiny - but I still would
Whitney was away with the fairies and didn't seem particularly interested in the singers - just her own publicity
The old block with Whitney, Clive, had a painted head too!

quote] On ITV2 on The Extra Factor someone emailed in that Statcy was alway happy and smiling, and she said ' thats just cause my gums are so big - cant help but smile' whcih I thought was quite funny.

Fair enough.
Just find it irritating how people get sucked in to all the b*llocks every year!

Trust me - it's not life and death in my household - just light entertainment! I know some people get really emotionally attached to the singers but it really is perfect "sit down, unzip head, remove brain, add a lettuce, chill" TV. You have some eye-candy, tears, piss taking and occasionally a performance that rocks your socks off.
[cite]Posted By: Elthamaddick[/cite]What Swisdon said, easy watching TV for those of us who hate Strictly and have little'uns who love it (my daughter is x factor mad at 2 and a half !!)
......plus anyone else think Clive looked like Mike Reid (Frank Butcher)
Frank with a painted head - yes. My wife mentioned that too
Went to the show last night and had a great time. Was just behind Girls Aloud and i can tell you that Sarah Harding and Sheryl Cole are stunning up close. I know some don't like the show but I've always found it entertaining. The show is soo well run it's unreal. The reaction to the twins going through didn't come across clearly enough on the telly. Some people seem to be warming to them as they're underdogs but others were quite hostile towards them, especially some of the other acts families. It was a fabulous night and i'm in the good books for a long time with such a cool birthday present for the wife.
Fair enough if you want to watch it, that's your choice but how anyone can take the time to actually phone in and vote and pay for the priviledge is beyond me....THAT IS SAD!
How Dobbie from Dagenham ( love that - just cracked up when I read that) can sing like that and look so natural then when she speaks turn into something completely different i'll never know. She should sing her way through life and she'll get far!

She reminds me of Sue Pollard In Hi-De-Hi when she talks, she is very funny.

i watched last night. I love Whitneys new songs, old style disco number.
Probably a good chance that they'll be the final 5.
Lucie sounds the most natural and faultless.
no probs buddy
