Lame Difference

Mon Dec 03 10:37AM by TV Editor

X-Factor's over for another week and yet again I'm wondering just who is voting to keep Same Difference in the competition? I actually physically wince when I see their saccharine performances every week. I nearly brought up my dinner when they wheeled out the troupe of candle carrying kids this week. Unfortunately they were fake plastic candles, just in case they burned the place down...pity. Who is voting for this pair, and can a responsible adult please stop them from using the telephone!

In less nauseating news, I'm glad to see the back of Simon's very own Barbie collection, Hope. Not since the Spice Girls has there been such a whiff of animosity every time one girl gets an extra line to sing. None of these girls wanted to be in a band in the first place, and I'll take bets now as to whether they will still be talking in 6 months.

Predictably (and hopefully) I think the final will be 3 soloists - Rydian, Leon and Niki. Nicki's got the likeability factor, and she can belt them out. Leon's got the whiff of the underdog (and the Scottish vote), which leaves quirky Rhydian to suck up everything else and take the X Factor crown...whether it will fit over his ever growing quiff is another matter.

Is our prediction correct? Who do you want to see battle it out in the final?
