7pm

the final is dragged out over an hour!!!! Far too long, it only take a minute to say the result!!!

So whos gonna win??

santacutie · 16/12/2006 18:08

I'll say Ray...Leona is fab,but I don't think she has much in the way of personality and that shy wave is getting on my nerves....

Earlybird · 16/12/2006 18:10

Is it a public only vote, or do the judges have a say in who wins?

No idea who is going to win. I think Leona has the most talent (and would win if it was up to the judges), but IMO Ray has the edge with public opinion. What does anyone else think?

CantSleepWithSanta · 16/12/2006 19:06

Public only vote.

Kate Thornton is wearing a black sparly dress that looks way too harsh on her.

Ray is up first.

Where are you?

CantSleepWithSanta · 16/12/2006 19:06

sparly = sparkly!

Earlybird · 16/12/2006 19:33

I'm in America. It's lunchtime here, and I'm sorting through Christmas gifts for relatives (in between brief Mumsnet peeks) while dd is being entertained downstairs by a sitter.

So, what's happening now? Anyone visibly nervous? Any fab or awful performances?

JesusWasReallyWelsh · 16/12/2006 19:37

RAYMONDO RAYMONDO RAYMONDO RAYMONDO

CantSleepWithSanta · 16/12/2006 19:38

One performance from each so far - repeats of one's they've done during the series. Rest has been an awful lot of filling and look back over the history of the series.

CantSleepWithSanta · 16/12/2006 19:39

I have no idea why I put an apostrophe in ones.

nutcracker · 16/12/2006 19:40

LEONA to win, she deserves it so much more than fakey ray.

JesusWasReallyWelsh · 16/12/2006 19:41

Leona has ZERO personality, she is not a star

nutcracker · 16/12/2006 19:45

She's shy thats all, at least she is genuine and not a fake like Ray.

JesusWasReallyWelsh · 16/12/2006 19:49

Bollox is she shy, shes putting it on
Ray is an entertainer

nutcracker · 16/12/2006 19:53

Ray is an entertainer yeah, would be good doing social clubs etc but will never be a huge start.

JesusWasReallyWelsh · 16/12/2006 19:55

I'll bet you every single Frys choclate cream in every Selection box in the United Kingdom

Raymondo WILL BE A STAR

CantSleepWithSanta · 16/12/2006 20:00

For earlybird's benefit, in case she's not following the other thread, Ray sang 'That's Life' with Westlife, and Leona sang 'A Million Love Songs' with Take That.

Both good, but Leona obviously better.

nutcracker · 16/12/2006 20:02

Don't know what Frys chocs are, obviously as unknown as Ray will be.

anniebear · 16/12/2006 20:26

lollol

Im sure at the end of that song you could still hear the squeaky one from Eton Rd singing off key

anniebear · 16/12/2006 20:29

I just dont know who I want to win

I thought Ray was brilliant with Westlife, really entertaining. Not sure on his last song though

But I think he is a lovely lad, lots of personality and I think he is very genuine

He does have the x factor

Leona doesn't have the x factor, but wow, what a voice

she hasn't sang off key the whole series.

You would not think she was capable of singing like that. She is just fatastic, but obviously let down a litle by her personality

But Simon could ahve eben right at the end when he said he would rather have her be shy than some cocky loudmouthed pop singer

I just don't have a clue who will win

Then again, on the last performance, Leona might just do it

Oh I don't know lol lol

anniebear · 16/12/2006 20:31

sory my spelling almost resembled Cods then lol

EllieChocolateOrange · 16/12/2006 20:32

I wouldn't buy a record by either of them. Shane and Andy last year were tons better.

Everyone says this Leona/ Mariah Carey thing but her voice re4ally winds me up. What's all the wibbling on a note about? Too much wibble for me.

EllieChocolateOrange · 16/12/2006 20:34

well, when i say a record i mean a cd OBVIOUSLY!

nutcracker · 16/12/2006 20:35

Simon hit the nail on the head about Leona.

EllieChocolateOrange · 16/12/2006 20:37

What did he say? Managed to miss that, but since he's a big fan, I DOUBT IT.

anniebear · 16/12/2006 20:42

something along the lines of if her being so shy means she isnt big headed etc then he would rather work with some one like that than some of the pop stars he knows who are cocky and loud etc etc

I am sure some one else could put it better

He is probably right though!!!
