As I said in another thread I'm pretty sure something like this couldn't happen since part of the agreed distinguishing factors between Pop Idol and X Factor after the legal case brought against the latter was the bottom two/judges vote format and the categories element and the fact groups can enter, so I don't think any of these things can be ditched on legal grounds.

Whilst I'd prefer that it's not practically possible in the results show since there's no way of allocating the time on the off-chance a deadlock happens.

For example, they have the sing-off/judges vote in part three to allow time for a ten minute vote if needs be, but if the vote is 3-1 they've then got a fourth part with nothing to fill. And then on the flip side, if they stick to doing the judges vote in part four and it does go to deadlock, there's no time to do another flash vote, so it can't work
