Probably within 20 minutes of them being reopened. I think it was just a case of more 5am fans preferring Matt

I also think Saturday's percentages overall are fascinating, they're all within a few percent of each other. Usually the 3rd placer is floating around 15% are they not?

Just makes you wonder what a better duet than Clean Bandit might've done for them, and whether Matt's votes would then subsequently have gone to 5AM, or whether Saara would've been in prime position to take the title.

What an interesting series to analyse :clap1:

This annoys me

Third place actually tends to hover between 20 and 26% usually but I do agree that it's fascinating how close it usually is, here's the percentages of all the 3rd placers that were revealed:

Eoghan Quigg - 25.33% (JLS ahead by 5.32%)
Stacey Solomon - 20.1% (Olly ahead by 6.6%)
One Direction - 20.72% (Rebecca ahead by 12.08%)
Amelia Lily - 26.5% (Marcus ahead by 8%)
Christopher Maloney - 16.8% (Jahmene ahead by 14.7%)
Luke Friend - 29.7% (Nicholas ahead by 2.4%)
Andrea Faustini - 22.2% (Fleur ahead by 10.5%)
Che Chesterman - 20.3% (Reggie n Bollie ahead by 14.9%)
5 After MIdnight - 31.3% (Matt ahead by 2.1%)

5 After Midnight have come the closest it seems, just 2.2% from being in the final 2.
