They should all be free to sing what best shows off their talent.

The worst two tonight, for me, were Daniel and Rachel.

Perhaps Rachel got through because she was all hurt and sulky, that won't work two weeks in a row though.

I thought it would be Daniel and Rachel in the bottom two tonight.

What's going on?

Week after next is Cilla week.

With her giving a master class about singing of mucky kids and dustbin lids.

What's it all about?

I'm not overly impressed with Rachel either. I quite like Daniel although i don't think he's the right person for this competition - and after the Ricky Gervais comments I can't see him as anything else.

Gayle · 08-11-2008, 22:29

I suppose the idea behind the themed nights is that it puts everyone on an even footing - if they can hack it week after week with the themes it means that they're versatile.

Rachel seemed to have lots of potential, and has had every opportunity to show it, but hasn't.

She'd make a good Mama Morton in Chicago, having the right attitude, and inside knowledge of the clink.

Only thing she's sung well is Rehab - in the auditions. If the only thing she can do is impersonate Amy Winehouse then she's not got much potential.

What puzzled me is that they said look forward to seeing Diana next week ? Would she not have been automatically been thrown out due to default ?
Don't suppose ever happened before.

LOL....and the week after it's Cheeky Girls week.

Monica and Gabriela will be giving a masterclass about singing 'Touch my bum, this is life......oooooooh we are the cheeky girls.'

I don't like Rachel at all. And I think that she has a big attitude problem. She was rubbish for me tonight. I thought that Daniel and her would have been in the bottom two, and I was hoping for her to go.

Apparently they have made a special exception.

She must have been very ill for them to do that.

The executive producers said because it was exceptional circumstances that she could come back next week.

It has happened once before.............remember that Rik Myall from Pop Idol (the one before x factor). He had to pull out one week for illness and still got to perfume the following week

Gayle · 08-11-2008, 22:37

If Daniel had been in the bottom two - regardless of who he would've been up against - they'd have sent him home.

Rik Mayall was in Bottom with Adrian Edmondson.
