So we will be spared the likes of Sami doing Celine Dion.

Craig has been seen kissing Danyl from the other year. Remember him- we liked him, he turned into a stroppy petulant child, became crap, and Dannii outed him on live tv (not her finest moment).

Amelia/Verucca Salt has been crying because she doesn't like her song. I don't like her at all- very high maintenance, methinks.

Place your bets on Marcus doing something from the Blues Brothers- as he has settled on a 'theme' for his performances.

Misha will prob do something from that film Jennifer Hudson did, the name of which escapes me.

Ok I smell a pm, come on someone share Grin

LottieJenkins · 20/11/2011 08:21

Love......The gossip on Kelly and Mischa wasnt gossip gossip. It was someone wanting to know why they were both crying on the show!

SilveryMoon · 20/11/2011 08:35

Right. Missed most of last nights.
Just kind of caught up with the thread.
No way is Olly gay. I'd shag him, and Derm too befor all this dancing stuff, tha's kind of put me off a bit now.
Have my sky box set to remind me when it's on later.

I have a confession. I shine my sink. I love the flylady system. haven't posted on the thread for a while as I just don't have time, but i do it all, have a folder filled with lists and routines about my housework. Love it.
You all think I'm a loser now, hey?

EmmaRoyd · 20/11/2011 09:07

Can someone fill me in on shiny sinks and flylady systems? I have no idea what any of you are talking about but it sounds far more interesting than last nights xfactor

noddyholder · 20/11/2011 09:16

Little mix are good as is misha b. I really dislike Marcus very fake and contrived. Think Craig wll go he has no charisma at all.

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 20/11/2011 09:24

Emma, flylady is a bonkers cleaning lady from the USA. Because her site is cuckoo-bananas but her methods (for organising housework) do work, there are threads in Good Housekeeping so that people don't have to join the official site.

It's a system to manage cleaning. I like the idea of it, am less good at doing owt about it.

figgygal · 20/11/2011 09:41

Am watching last nights show now god I'm bored thank god for the FFW button. Marcus is the only 1 worth watching at the moment IMO although I actually liked little mix Blush I always liked misha but last night I even forwarded thru her didn't appreciate the sympathy fest after her bottom 2 experience last week very cynical!!!!

chipstick10 · 20/11/2011 09:52

Here here noddy i thought it was only me that loathes the contrived little turd

MissHonkover · 20/11/2011 10:15

Sorry not to have turned up for quiche duty ladies, will do better this evening.

Don't get the fuss about Pick n Mix, surely they should be doing something more impressive after all these weeks?

I like a man with larger thighs than myself, but that only leaves Geoff Capes and Fatima Whitbread.

I am ashamed to admit, that I was so bored during last night's show, I may have drunk a tad too much for a change and have just had to read this thread to find out what I watchedBlush.

I have totally gone off Craig. At the start, I thought he had potential, but Barry has destroyed any hint of emotion.
I liked Marcus- but would like to see him do something a bit different.
I am hoping Amelia and Craig in the bottom 2. Have a feeling Pixie will be safe, despite her hideous dress sense.
I dislike Amelia- she may be able to sing, but disguises it with shouting.
I can't remember Misha's performanceBlush
I really don't like Little Mix- have they ever sung anything where you can hear them individually? They could be anyone, really, with a backing track. I have a feeling they may win (and I can't bear Tulisa's smug face, so don't want that to happen!)

Poor Louis- he has weeks left, of sitting there like a lemon. What does he do with his week now? (If we believe the judges really do mentor their acts, which is debatable)Grin

Maybe he is the tea boy...

This thread really is the best thing about the showGrin and the Yeo Valley farmers. Next year, they should just have 2 hours of the farmers, and advert clips of the contestants. That would be better.

FairyArmadillo · 20/11/2011 10:40

Was bored too. I turned over at 9pm to watch a Nicholas Cage film.

Must admit I like Rihanna and that's why I'll be watching the results show if I do. They should invite the Yeo Valley farmers to guest. Definitely watch that!

FairyArmadillo · 20/11/2011 10:45

Raah- Misha sang I Have Nothing from The Bodyguard and cried because no one votes for her. They showed a clip of her and Kelly crying together because they share the experience of never knowing their mother/father. It IS a sad experience but an obvious attempt to get people to like her.

SilveryMoon · 20/11/2011 10:52

Raah I'd happily watch the Yeo Farmers for a couple of hours on a saturday night. Sounds like bliss Smile

I don't think Misha will ever recover from the bullying thing. I do think she has the strongest, and probably most commercial voice. If she gets booted off- will M and S erase her from their ad- won't leave much if they do!!Grin

OP posts:
LadyBeagleEyes · 20/11/2011 11:08

I agree Raah, Tulisa and Louis spoke out of turn there.
I never usually vote but I've voted for her the last couple of weeks.
I think she has an amazing voice and is clearly the most talented.
I also take a lot of the backstage gossip with a pinch of salt.

SilveryMoon · 20/11/2011 11:14

Tulisa was bang out of order when she said what she did re the bullying.
That's when I really went off of her. It started when she hadn't heard of Fife

Raahh · 20/11/2011 11:25

It is probably a source of constant amazement to Tulisa that anywhere exists outside of her 'manor'Grin

I watched last night's show pissed at 1am. It was crap.

missmiss- pissed was really the only way to watch itGrin

FairyArmadillo · 20/11/2011 11:44

I don't like Tulisa at all. She didn't show herself in a good light with the bullying accusations. Misha does have the best voice of the lot. But it seems to be all about the drama this year. Yawn...

mrsjay · 20/11/2011 12:44

amelia does my head in she is such a princess ! craig is my favourite i love his voice im not a singer tone deaf infact but he has a nice tone to it , marcus was great till he turned into bruno marcus , the rest MEH, and thought movie week was shit ,

HERE IS THE

RESULTS THREAD*

(sorry to shout, but there is always someone who gets left behindGrin

OP posts:
miserablemum · 20/11/2011 18:00

So it's not just us that thinks it's a load of rubbish Grin

I've been a huge Xfactor fan for years, but seriously feel like switching off.

Louis has always driven me mad. Tulisa is doing my head in - not knowing one of the great Aretha Franklin songs of all time Hmm and so what - what has that to do with the performance???

Craig is now so dull and predictable. Janet even more so. Marcus has been turned into a Little Richatd tribute act, and is now predictable every week too!!! Little Mix are great, but where was the stripped down ballad we were promised???? Mischa I really like but the bullying thing and her switching image/attitude are confusing.....they're trying to soften her up to appeal i think.

And we thought Jamie had stopped Sainsbos too Grin
