Her time was up.

Little Mix to win!

I agree!!

They sang well on Saturday.
Marcus needs to pull summat out of the bag if he wants to win.

Apparently though you can buy Amilea Lilly's winning song on HMV..............was it an error on HMV or something else??!!

It was an error they took it down after complaints and put them all up at the same time...

it's bollocks - I think they should get Sting in as a judge next year instead of Barlow! Either that or bring back Simon!

I have been reading my granddaughter's Facebook page.
She reports that she is at Wembley for the final tonight and is sitting 11 rows back behind the judges.

I won't be watching (never do) - how foolish to waste money travelling from Manchester today just to be there, especially since she is a hard up student.

Being young, gives you an excuse to be 'foolish'.

There's plenty of time ahead, to be sensible.

(Or pretend to...in many cases, including mine.)

I'm afraid I'll find it hard to believe if you never did anything rash, reckless, and carefree, when you were younger.

Par for the course these days Margaret.

My eldest at 24 is just starting to mis-behave too !

I'm thinking about it at 48!!

GO LITTLE MIX!!!

They did really weel ans deserved to win, I think the nerves got to Marcus this weekend to be honest.

He will still be a star though I think as he has a good voice and will work hard.

Little Mix looked great though this weekend.

Not sure about the winners song though.............................

mobertol · 12-12-2011, 20:13

Found this on youtube -I haven't seen any of the X-factor.

Didn't want to comment but they seem like a pale version of the Spice Girls 10 or more years on....

I thought the highlight of the weekend was the JLS/One Direction performance - absolutely stunning. Both have gone on from X Factor to greater things, and hopefully Little Mix will do the same.;

I knew AM was out as her vocal wasn't as good as the other 2! However do you know they have backing tracks with guide vocals. Notice how when all the other acts came on and mobbed the girls who had stopped singing the singing carried on - which means it was pre-recorded.

Also notice how this years charity single is bolstered by winning acts from previous years (JLS and One Direction) which is basically an insurance policy to make sure fans of JLS buy the song. X-factor is one big TV marketing scam to make you watch more Television, the shows are too long with too many ad breaks and on 2 nights, when before it was one; this is all to make you watch more TV and thus be exposed to more advertising! It's not a case of "Ring the Christmas bells!" but ring the cash tills!

Simple answer, don't watch it then !

Rindy has reminded me of this thread and as the new season has started then I think we had better start up the thread again!

New season has started ok I have seen a couple of acts that could go through. Liked having Mel B as a guest judge! Proper northern lass that would take no messing! Not too sure about acts singing their own songs, some have been alright but a lot have been weak.

May be quiet for the first few weeks until me & G sort out our outfits and entrance to the stage each week but we will as we have done in the past be the best judes we can be!

We predicted the winner last year can we do it again this year...............

So come on G any thoughts on our his and her's outfits/entrance or are we keeping it under wraps until nearer the time?

No..No...No..No...No. Keep this facile, inane, mind-dumbing, vomit-inducing garbage on facebook or some other such purile place....there should be no room for it here. Reading the very last post has given me serious brain ache.
