it was surposed to be the one with the least votes gone this week but i think cher was bottom of the votes and you cant have her go before the final.

[Vicky.]

This is exactly what I think it is too.

Judges vote in the semi final...basically the judges handpicking the finalists...so much for leaving it to the public

[Angus]

Yep, it's the fix factor alright Let's hope it's a deadlock so that they have to go by the public vote.

i thought this is the publics show now simon? and do you know that no overs got to go on last this year?

[Stacey.]

Well the Queen needed to be in the finale. She would've been anyway... Mary would've had the least votes.

The public havent had a say yet this year you know...

Wonder if we actually get a say in who wins

of course,thats why they did a bottom two to save cher.

If only they had a sing off in the semi final of 2008.. then Diana would have been through but Eoghan got more votes.

Shame you couldn't prove your claim

Well there was no chance for that, but for sure Mary had less votes.

The Queen, of what? She has been in the bottom 2 for 2 of the last 3 weeks,hardly a sign of any popularity, being fair.

Queen of the show.

Of course she's popular, she's survived every week but two. And most likely, she came higher than Paije and Mary.

Stacey, often you talk sense and I often take on board some of what you say but Mary has also survived every week but 2 as the last 2 placings so you defeat your own argument with your statement above.

We have no way of knowing who was last in the votes but one things for sure the Judges weren't going to let it go to deadlock and if Cher had been 2nd last in the votes they would have had no fear of doing that.

So it stinks rotten. Absolutely, and she has as much chance of winning this year as I have and I am not even in it.

[Zippy]

The public chose the bottom two so obviously theyve had a large say.

Both Cher and Mary have been there before so theyre clearly the two least faves.

but this was confirmed as the one with the least votes was gone,there was meant to be no bottom twos but cher came bottom of the votes.

also dermot didnt tell the public that it was a bottom two,so the people that voted this weekend should ask for a refund.

I agree but I also think the best and fairest way to have settled that would have been to let the public decide the outcome,not a sig off and the judges as the public have always done in the semi finals.

I think you are spot on on this one, my instant thought, everything this year stinks rotten as to the judges voting on X Factor,this just adds fuel to the flames of the suspicions.

I think Cher was likely bottom of the votes and I think they get the nod too as to that.

It all really stinks and has got worse as the weeks have gone on.
