Very valid point, they should do what Strictly has now and eliminate this nonsense once and for all. From the live shows starting on Strictly, it is now only the public who decide who stays and goes,no dance off.
Time X Factor did the same to stop this 'guiding' of results.No need for midweek announcements either,you believed there was bottom 2 and so did lots of others,I couldn't understand why we hadn't been told it was only the public vote that decided the finalists as in other years, as I said in posts above, Jeff Brazier, Danyl and the presenters were speculating who would be in the bottom 2, also why was it not the public only deciding the result this week,
Despite having a 90 minute programme Saturday, and a further 1 hour programme on Sunday plus an hour each night of Xtra Factor too, no one said that the semi finals would be decided by the public only, they 'had' to make an announcement midweek saying it had been decided that 'there would be no sing off in the semi final and that it would be the public vote only that decided the finalists'.
It's time these programme planners starting treating the voting public with a bit more decency and keep them informed of what is happening week by week and stop treating us like mushrooms, keeping us in the dark and shovelling ..... at us.
