i feel like simon and itv have missed out on a ratings winner , rather than the judges pick the wildcard out of so many acts the act that finished 3rd each night should have been put through to a wild card show along with a judges pick, each judge would have had an act.

there could then be a final live show on friday night next week where the wildcards perform and the top 2 go through to the final.

i bet this will happen next year

Nah, cos even more kids would end up getting through if it was up to the public.

I think the wildcard will be Joseph or Steve, can't see them putting through any more singers or kids.

[Marcus.]

and we don't need for kids

[abcd]

most pointless idea ever, if an act cant pull in enough votes to be in the top 2 in a semi what chance do they have of winning the final
the x factor wild card isnt so bad as the eliminated contestants havent been involved in any voting

[Black Dagger]

Oh god no.

If they did this it'd be Youth Creation or JackCormac going through for sure, least this way I can hope the ****ing morons have chose Steve or Joseph Hall.

[Marc]

Nope

[Black Dagger]

Although in saying that David tweeted earlier that suggested Jack and Cormac have the wildcard anyway

[Jords]

In the case of nowt else being on the TV... Id have liked this, although it woulda been a bit over-kill.

I'm surprised they haven't done this already - the US version has done it for years. Absolutely agree with your format too and it ensures the public get the final say so if another singer is put through it's because the public want them to have a second chance, not because Cowell sees £ signs.
