Aw and kimbnerley :(
Oh yeah, the Unconventionals were brilliant in my opinion. They had this kind of barbershop quartet kind of thing going on, only there weren't four of them, and it wasn't barbershop.
So erm..
Yeah..

I agree. I think they were just under-rated because everyone was pissed off at them staying over Maria. I was one of those people, but I was mad at Louis and not them, and I did think they were a good act and did have great performances.
Other under-rated acts imo are:
Roberta
Voices With Soul
Chenai
Dionne
Alisha

Series 1
The majority of acts were underrated, in my opinion. Verity had such a sweet and pure voice which was messed up when Simon gave her two huge power ballads. Voices With Soul were great, but didn't seem to get the votes for some reason - I still think it was because of their image. Roberta had a great voice and did really well with the song she was given, but it wasn't to be for some reason. 2 To Go were also very underrated and, although I wasn't a big fan, they gave three good performances and were consistant - Peter was better than Emma.
Series 2
For me, Philip was terribly underrated and should've been one of the top five. He had a really good voice, but was given some very bad song choices by Louis. I thought he had a pretty similar voice to that of Elvis, so why give him a song by Bette Midler, I ask? 4Tune should've stayed for a lot longer, too. I was totally shocked when they were voted off because I knew they had so much more to give, although I didn't like them personally.
Series 3
Dionne, Dionne, Dionne! I was absolutely gutted when she was firstly installed as rank outsider with odds of 66/1 to win, then when she was in the bottom two after one of the best performances on the first night and then when she recieved the least amount of votes in week three. The poor girl just wasn't given a chance and she had one of the strongest voices in the competition. The Unconventionals were unfairly voted off, too - the arrangement in their first (and last) song was an absolute mess. Robert didn't really seem to get much support, despite having a great voice; along with Nikitta.
Series 4
As much as I disliked him, Daniel was completely underrated in the competition. During bootcamp, he was outstanding and I thought he really had a shot at winning - terrible, terrible song choices during the live shows. I didn't like Andy either, but he was given some poor songs that didn't suit his voice or style. Kimberley was a real talent and I think she had the strongest voice in the 14-24 female category - Alisha's voice was a little too simple for the show and Emily's just didn't do anything for me. Futureproof harmonised well and had at least three good singers within the band. Hope should never have been given 'Hanky Panky' - it was their downfall. And finally, Beverley had one of the best voices this year, but just didn't seem to get the votes for some reason - I can't think of how she could've been improved.

This year, I'd say Beverley. She had her ups and downs, but despite her good singing abilities she was often overlooked in favour of other acts. She was actually a bit of a diva and loud, but despite this she never really stood out. I realise that it's often all about selling records and that's that - but Beverley did show evidence of talent, which wasn't showcased enough in my opinion.
I don't remember that many acts from the last few years, which probably shows they were underrated for a reason. However, I do remember Dionne and her being really good - so it's a shame she left at such an early stage.

Alisha was definately underrated, she would have been there for longer if it wasnt for Sharon IMO.
Phoebe was also seriously underrated, which the judges have actually admitted themselves, how did emily get through over her and so many others.
