The new panel is splitting people, a lot of people hate it but some people do like it. But with the press reports and the viewing figures I don't think the current panel will be back next year. What do you want to happen and what do you realistically think will happen?

If the show is to be a huge success again next year I think they need to bring back Simon, Cheryl and Dannii because it would cause a media storm but I doubt that will happen.

I do think Simon will almost certainly be back in place of Gary even if he doesn't mentor a category. Even if Simon doesn't return, I'm not sure Gary will be there anyway, he seems to hate the show at the minute and he's not going down well at all, not even in a panto villain way like Simon.

I've got a feeling Kelly won't be back, I'll be amazed if she is. I still think shes too big a name for it. My money is on us getting Nicole Scherzinger which in turn gets her off the US panel for a stateside shake up next year. The US hate her but she went down really well over here, and Kelly might go down a lot better in America, if they literally just do a straight swap which they should.

Huge question mark over Tulisa, and I think they'd rather have Cheryl on the panel. If they can talk Cheryl round, Tulisa will be dropped faster than shes dropped N Dubz. Shes useless and clueless anyway and shouldn't even be there

Louis has nothing better to do, so will be back

So in all, I think next years panel could well be Simon, Cheryl, Nicole and Louis. They'd kill to have Cheryl & Nicole on the same panel, it would be Dannii v Sharon allover again but magnified 1000000000000 times
