my two pence worth
 

wasn't around for x factor so this is my opinion.
i cant believe that everyone moans about how crap the contestants have been over the last few years, then a class act like rebecca comes along and people vote for matt(who was alright, but not in the same class rebecca).
on final night cher lloyd was the best performer and was voted off, yet liam and the four good looking lads around him got through, (the perks of being good looking).

best perfomance of the series
rebecca ferguson - you got to show me love

would have loved to have seen gamu in the live shows
her audition was my favourite.

It's all matter of opinion and personal taste though, I thought Matt was the best and had the best performance with Nights in White satin and deserved to win

Poor Cher. Robbed of winning.
