X FACTOR - it's the FINAL (still)- Someone is going to win- most of all Simon.

[fRaahhnkincense]

Here we go, the last thread. The final curtain. No more Pugs which does mean no more Whitney, or Mariah, though. Every cloud...

A re-cap of the songs-

Ben Haenow
Song of the series: Man In The Mirror (by Michael Jackson)

Winners Single – Something I Need (originally by One Republic)

Fleur East

Uptown Funk (originally by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars)

Winners Single – Something I Need (originally by One Republic)

I do like the 'originally' bit here- like, for evermore the songs will be known as the 'Fleur East* version, or something

Rumours are Ben is now the favourite, I'm struggling to care.

Let's settle this - FIGHT!

So, for the final time, see y'all later.

Britney Spears has her tongue out too much as well.

Noisybrain - I before E except after a C. One of the few things I learnt at my South London comprehensive.

Rudolph that made me do a real life lol

I love Sam Smith, but his lisp when he sings.......

lookingforbaubles glad it's not just me!

Performance of the series.

Aw Noël.

My grandad had severe dementia. In the nursing home, my mum sat with him while they had a sweaty middle-aged cover band in to entertain the residents, and as the portly fella struggled with packing up the amps, arse crack falling out of his jeans, Grandad turned to her all misty-eyed and said "You can say what you like about Bootle, but we can still get the big names, can't we?"

Quite an observation there noisy

Well, that'll larn me not to F5

Callum Best and Jude Laws love child?

why can't Dermie learn to hold the mike higher when interviewing-everyone is taller than him

Brilliant tv , Im waiting for something awful to happen and watching Mel b is agonising .

Dermot needs a go go gadget arm.

Any chance that Sam could steal the win for himself? Can that happen?

Aww Rudy and BOF yep it's a bit sad, but I'd be lying if I said we didn't get some laughs out of it

Gawd, how many ad breaks is that now. This is painful.

I must be over emotional tonight, the coke ad has choked me up I blame the cock sweet

Ad breaks let the tinnitus wear off.

Bloody fleur will be getting impatient waiting for her moment of glory. How fantastic will it be if she doesn't win!!

Well, of course you've had more votes than ever. They're free.

I want Stevie to come back and win.

This could have been over by 8.05

It's the most votes, because it's free probably.

Sarah Jane needs to lay off the fags
